CONDITIONS OF BAI‘AT AND RESPONSIBILITIES OF AN AHMADI
you, you should show restraint. The door of salvation will open for you when you act upon this teaching. You will join those who have achieved nearness to Allah. There should be no confrontation in any matter. Even being in the right, be humble like one who is in the wrong. No matter what the other person has said, deal with that person with love, affection and sincerity. Your tongue should be so pure, your language so sweet, and good morals so overflowing that people should be attracted towards you. Everyone should realise that you are an Ahmadi. Nothing less than the highest moral values can be expected of you. In short, your high morals will attract others and will become a source for drawing their attention. Some people give false testaments for personal gain in litigation. They present their case falsely. The Promised Messiahas says that even your vested interests should not prevent you from truthful testimony. Some people here and in other countries make false statements in their efforts to migrate. Stay away from all these things. Submit your [migration] case based on the facts, and if it is granted as such, then you should stay; otherwise you should go back. Sometimes cases are rejected even if they are fabricated; you should try sticking to the truth. Insha’Allah, it will only benefit you. Even if your case is rejected, you will at least not earn the displeasure of Allah.
