This essay was also published in the “Illustrated Weekly of India” (July 7, 1974). They then repost a letter from Daryabadi’s newspaper, “Sidqe Jadid” on 10-25-74. This writing seems to be a response to a 3-page letter that he got (from what seems to be an Ahmadi) and has to do with Qadiani’s and Lahori’s Ahmadi’s getting declared Non-Muslim. The quote seems to be incomplete.
