Intro
At-Tabligh is the Arabic part of “A’ina-e-Kamalat-e-Islam” (The Mirror of the Excellences of Islam)(500+ pages in Urdu, this book comprises almost all of Ruhani Khuzain Vol. 5). At-Tabligh is essentially Part-2 of the book and has nothing to do with the first part of the book. At-Tabligh was MGA’s team’s first Arabic only book. At-Tabligh seems to cover the final 100 pages of Ruhani Khuzain Vol. 5.
Per “Life of Ahmad” by Dard (see page 341), the number of copies produced was 1,400. It covered about 700 pages including a message of about 250 pages in Arabic and Persian addressed to the learned people of India, Arabia, Persia, Turkey, Egypt, Turkistan (central asia, which was under the Russian Government) and Afghanistan. This was added to the book at the suggestion which Maulawi Abdul Karim made to Ahmad on January 11th, 1893. Its price was fixed on August 10th, 1892, at R. 1 without postage but later, as the book grew in volume, it was fixed at Rs. 2 without postage.
This is the book wherein MGA calls his deniers as sons of prostitutes (Zurrayatul Baghaya), this was repeated in 1898 in Najmul Huda. In terms of the Quran, the word Baghaya was used in the Quran twice, once in 19:20 and once in 19:28. In both cases, these are loose women or it could be used as prostitutes. This quote was mentioned in 1935 in the famous “Khosla judgement” and again by Justice Coldstream as the Qadiani-Ahmadi’s wanted this word expunged from the records, which the judge refused to do. Even the ROR of March-1935 has a full explanation of this, it even mentions how K. L. Gauba wanted to take up a case vs. the Qadiani-Ahmadi’s. K. L. Gauba wanted to present a case to the Assembly wherein MGA and his insults towards Muslims would be evaluated, per the ROR, it was denied, the National League at Qadian gave an answer to the Zurrayatul Baghaya insult and claimed that the quote really meant, meant, “Children, followers and supporters”=Zurrayatul and Baghaya meant “Slave girls, immoral women and the advance guard of an army”. They go to allege that this quote meant “followers of the vanguard of the party which was out to crush the Ahmadiyya Movement”, or as “low and ill mannered people like the children of bondwomen”.
He also discusses the Musleh Maud prophecy. The Muhammadi Begum prophecy is also discussed and also the controversial ilham of MGA wherein his God told him that he would kill the husband of Muhammadi Begum (this was also covered by Hassan Odeh).

“Every Muslim will accept me and will confirm my claim except the zurrayatul baghaya whose hearts will have been sealed up by God Almighty.”

(A) Allah observed that my cousins and near relatives were committed to ruinous courses…and that they denied the existence of God and were wicked people…. Allah saw that they incited people to vice and forbade good…and did not refrain from speaking ill of the Holy Prophet, peace and the blessings of Allah be upon him, but persisted in it…. While they were in this condition Allah chose me for the revival of His faith…and provided me handsomely with inspiration and verbal revelation and communications and visions… whereupon they rebelled and mockingly demanded Signs and said: ‘We have no knowledge of any God Who speaks to anyone…so let him produce a Sign if he is truthful…’ In this way they advanced daily in their error and their arrogance till they decided to propagate their evil thoughts and to mislead the ignorant ones with their delusions. They have published a document in which they have abused the Holy Prophet, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, and have abused the Word of Allah and have denied the existence of God, hallowed be His name. Along with this they have demanded Signs in support of my truthfulness and have demanded proof of the existence of God Almighty. They have published this document widely in all quarters and have thus helped all the non-Muslims of India against Islam and have transgressed greatly, the equal of which has not been heard of even about the Pharaohs…. When this document of theirs, which was prepared by the biggest of them in evil as well as in age, reached me…I found it full of phrases whereby the heavens might be rent asunder…. Thereupon, I bolted my doors and supplicated
my Lord, the Bountiful, prostrating myself before Him and…saying: My Lord, my Lord, help Your servant and humiliate Your enemies. Respond to me O Lord, respond to me. How long will they mock You and Your Messenger, how long will they call Your Book false and will abuse Your Messenger? I beseech You of Your mercy, O Hayy [the Ever-Living], Qayyum [the Self Subsisting], Mo‘in [the Helper].
Then Allah had mercy on me in consequence of my weeping, my sighing, and my tears and He called me and said:
[Arabic] I have observed their disobedience and their transgression, I shall soon afflict them with various types of misfortunes and shall wipe them out from under the heavens. You will soon see how I shall deal with them and I have power to do all that I might will. I shall make their women widows, and their children orphans, and their houses ruins, so that they might taste that which they have said and they have earned. But I shall not destroy them suddenly at one swoop, but stage by stage, so that they might have a chance of turning back and repenting. My curse will descend upon them and upon their homes and upon their little ones and their big ones and their women and their men and their guests who will enter their doors. All of them will be accursed except those who believe and act righteously and cut off their relations with them and keep off from their gatherings. Those will be the recipients of My mercy.
This is the substance of what my Lord has revealed to me. So I conveyed the messages of my Lord to them, but they felt no fear and did not affirm the truth. Instead, they increased in their rebellion and denial, and went on mocking like the enemies of the faith. Then my Lord
addressed me and said:
We shall show them Signs which will cause them to weep and shall send down upon them strange afflictions and extraordinary diseases and shall make their lives a misery and shall
pile up afflictions upon them and no one will be able to help them.
Thus did Allah the Almighty deal with them, breaking their backs with the weight of sorrows and debts and privations and sent down upon them all kinds of trials and tribulations and opened for them the doors of death and destruction so that they might turn back and should give up their indifference, but their hearts were hardened and they did not understand nor did they wake up nor did they fear. When the time of the display of the Sign drew near, it so happened in those days that one of their near relations of the name of Ahmad Baig desired to take possession of the
land of his sister whose husband had disappeared many years before.

””Tell him to establish a relationship with you by giving his elder daughter in marriage to you and thus to obtain light from your light. Tell him that you would agree to the transfer of the land as he has requested and show him other favors in the event of this marriage taking place. Tell him that this would be a covenant between you and that if he accepts it he will find you the best acceptor on your side and that if he does not accept it and his daughter is married to someone else that marriage would not prove a blessing either for his daughter or for himself. Tell him that if he persists in carrying out any different design he will become subject to a series of misfortunes, the last of which would be his death within three years of the marriage of his daughter to someone else. Warn him that his death is near and will occur at a time when he does not expect it. The husband of his daughter will also die within two years and a half. This is a divine decree.”””

“””I have been informed of matters which had never entered my mind nor did I know anything about them. At such a time God directed me through revelation that I should seek the hand of his elder daughter in marriage and should tell him that he should first establish this relationship with me and should thereby seek light from my light. I was also directed to tell him that I had been commanded to let him have the land which he had asked for and even some more and to show benevolence towards him in many ways, provided he would agree to the marriage of his elder daughter to me. This would be a covenant between us and if he agreed to it he would find me a good party to it; but if he did not agree to it I was to warn him that I had been informed by God that her marriage to anyone else would not prove blessed for the person she marries nor for her father. If he did not comply with my request he would be afflicted with misfortunes culminating in his death. He would die within three years of the marriage [of his daughter]. Indeed, his death might occur earlier at a time when he is unaware. So also the husband of that girl would die within two and a half years of the marriage. This is a divine decree and you can act as you might choose, I have warned you….Then, I wrote to him under divine direction and as indicated by my Gracious God…‘I am writing this letter to you under divine direction and not of my own accord, so make this letter secure in your box for this is from one true and faithful and God knows that I am entirely truthful in this matter and the promise I have made has been made by God’s direction and not on my own. It is Allah Who has made me speak under His revelation.’”””

In this revelation, MGA’s god is clearly saying that he will kill the husband of Muhammadi Begum. Ahmadi’s purposely mis-translated kill as destroy (See the explanation by Hassan Odeh).
(Arabic), ‘We shall kill her husband (also), just like we killed her father and return her to you. This is the truth from your lord. Then be not those who doubt. We shall delay it only for a fixed period. Say: Wait till the end of the term and I am with you among those that wait. When the promise of God is fulfilled {it will be said}: Is this what you called false or were you blind?””

On 26 February 1893, his book Aina Kamalate islam was published, MGA repeated his prophesy of birth of Bashir Emmanuel-to be fulfilled soon. Mirza Mahmud was 4 years old at that time which means that MGAQ did not consider him for the title. His second son was also named Bashir Ahmad, he was born on April 20th.

“”[Arabic] [Grace will arrive with his coming. He is light and is blessed and holy and is of the righteous. He will spread blessings and will nurture people on pure food and will be a helper of the faith…. He will be one of My Signs and will be the banner of My supports so that those who deny you should know that I am with you through My open grace…. He will be perceptive, intelligent and handsome. His heart will be filled with knowledge, his interior will be gentle and his breast will be filled with security. He will be bestowed the Messianic spirit and will be blessed with the spirit of security. Monday! O blessed Monday, blessed spirits will arrive on that day.] “”
