Intro
The Black Stone (installed in one corner of the Ka‘bah) is also called al-Hajar al-Aswad. MGA seems to have copied Sir Syed Ahmad Khan in this regard and many others.

In 1900, MGA began fabricating wahi/ilham wherein MGA was asserting that he was “al-Hajar al-Aswad” and the Kaaba (Baitullah)(See Araba’in, online English edition, page 147).

In 1906-1907, MGA was calling himself the Black Stone and the Kaaba (in a symbolic way)(See page 842).

In His revelation, God has also called me Baitullah [the House of Allah], which indicates that the more my opponents strive to demolish this House, the more treasures of divine knowledge and heavenly Signs will emerge from it. Accordingly, my experience is that at the time of every persecution a treasure is certainly disclosed. One of the ilham in this context is:
د و من مے گفتم کہ حجرِ اَسود منم 􀅔ی􀆶 یکے پائے من مے بوس 􀆰

[Someone kissed my foot and I told him: ‘I am the Black Stone’.]

Haqiqatul-Wahi (The Philosophy of Divine Revelation)

“”I declare in the name of Allah that just as the Ka‘bah exists in Makkah for the pilgrims, I am the Ka‘bah for all those who are in need [of guidance]. I alone am al-Hajrul-Aswad [the Black Stone] whose acceptance has been ordained for the whole world and the touching through which people seek blessings.1٭ May Allah’s curse be upon those who accuse me of being a seeker of the world despite the fact that I am far removed from the world. I have come to make people firm in Tauhid [Oneness of God] and in prayer, and not to bestow different kinds of gifts.”””

*This is the summary of what God has revealed to me. In fact, Allah the Benevolent has used this expression for me as a figure of speech. To the interpreters of dreams, al-Hajrul-Aswad [the Black Stone] signifies a person with sound judgment in religious matters and a man of wisdom.”””

Religious Views of Sir Sayyid [Syed] Ahmad Khan (From an Article in Daily ‘Jang’) by Dr. Zahid Aziz – Islam Ahmadiyya – alahmadiyya.org

Views of Sir Sayyid quoted from Article:

  • It is erroneous to believe that the angel Gabriel is an actual being who brought revelation to the messengers of God. Prophethood is a higher form of poetic and literary composition which the prophets excel in. Prophets go into a state of trance and utter words in that state, to which the terms Gabriel and revelation are applied.
  • The fire of hell and the blessings of paradise have no external existence.
  • The whole story of Adam in the Quran, including God’s speaking to the angels, His teaching of the names to Adam etc., were not actual events but are merely symbolical descriptions.
  • None of the miracles of the prophets related in the Quran took place in reality, nor do they prove the truth of prophethood.
  • Abraham copied the customs of the pagans of his time in treating the Kabah as a symbol of Divine worship.
  • There is no Divine command for Muslims to face the Kabah in prayer.
  • In case of intentional murder, the practice of allowing the heirs of the deceased to forgive and accept blood-money is a custom of pre-Islamic ignorance.
  • Fasting was only included in Islam by the Holy Prophet because the Arab idolators believed in it as an act of worship.
  • Even a healthy young adult can choose whether to fast or to give charity in its place.
  • Muslim rulers misused the concept of jihad, as a religious duty, in order to conquer other countries. The books written by the Ulama [clerics] about the commandments relating to jihad have nothing to do with religion.
  • Kissing the Black Stone (hajr aswad) is only a way of counting the number of circuits around the Kabah. It has no other meaning.
  • The original purpose of hajj [pilgrimage] was only that Makkah should continue to be populated, and the sole aim of the sacrifice was to provide food for the people of this area. It was afterwards continued in memory of Abraham.
  • There are many forms of interest (on money), considered unlawful by the Ulama, which are legitimate.
  • Jesus was not born without a father. His father was called Joseph.
  • Jesus did not speak as a baby, nor was he raised up to heaven.
  • Cutting off the hand of a thief is a barbaric punishment. Where there are prisons, it is not right to apply this punishment.
  • The miracles of the Holy Prophet Muhammad did not take place as actual events, but were a form of mesmerism.
  • The raising of the dead from the graves on the Day of Resurrection has no reality to it.
  • The miraj [ascension] of the Holy Prophet did not take place while he was awake.
  • There is no separate creation called jinn. This term in the Quran is applied to people inhabiting remote mountainous regions.
  • It is not true that a record of man’s deeds is kept in a book.
  • Miracles are contrary to reason and the laws of nature.
