Intro
We have a found a newspaper report from the famous Pioneer newspaper of British from Thursday, March-29th, 1894 and April 5th and 12th. The March-29th, 1894 edition reported on the lunar eclipse of March 20th, 1894. However, it should be noted that the day would change when the sun went down (not at mid-night), and thus the evening of March 20th, would actually be March 21st in the islamic calendar. This totally contradicts the alleged hadith in Dar-e-Qutni which clearly says that the there would be a lunar eclipse the first night of ramadhan, and this had never happened before in the history of the universe, which is true, lunar eclipses don’t happen on the first night of Ramadhan. It should also be noted that the Lunar eclipse was only visible in Agra and not Qadian.
The solar eclipse is reported in the April 12th, 1894 edition of the Pioneer Mail and happened on the last day of Ramadhan, which was April 6th. This is also in full contradiction with alleged hadith in Dar-e-Qutni which clearly says that the there would be a solar eclipse the middle of ramadhan. MGA and his team have never accepted this, they say it happened on April 5th, or they extend Ramadhan to April 7th.
Furthermore, we have also posted an internal document from the British government for March-April of 1894 wherein the Thanesar Eclipse Fair of 1894 is discussed (from brit library records). These internal documents tell us how 500,000 people showed up for the the event. Many hindu newspapers (and other sources) told Hindus about the impending Solar eclipse on April 6th, 1894 and thus, it happened on the morning of April 6th from 7:20am to 9:50am. Per the report about 75% of the sun was covered by the moon. This report tells us that even 2-3 months before these eclipses happened, hindus had told the railway department that they would have lots of Hindu’s travelling to Thanesar. These reports also tell us that there similar eclipse fairs in 1871, 1872, 1874 and 1887.
In conclusion, after the Thanesar fair and after the Pioneer Mail published all of this info about the eclipses, then, the private letters of Fatih Masih, wherein he urged MGA to connect these eclipses with his claims, then and only then did MGA’s team concoct the entire story of the eclipses. Even in 2019, hindus celebrate the a solar eclipse with a festival.
2 years after the eclipses (1896). MGA claims that the Pioneer called the eclipses a supernatural event and acknowledges that the Pioneer foretold the eclipses. MGA also argues that his enemies changed the dates from the 13th to the 14th and the 28th to the 29th. MGA quotes the Pioneer and Sole Military Gazette.
MGA knew that the eclipses would happen and still didn’t bother to use them as a sign before they happened. He just acknowledged that he knew but after the happened… over a month later on the 11th of May 1894, Padri Fateh Masih trolled MGA, saying people are going crazy in Makkah over the eclipses and advised him to go there and claim to be the Mahdi. About a week later, on May 18 1894 MGA writes Nur al Haq volume 2 and quotes the letter of Fateh Masih. It shows how calculative he was.
But he proves himself to be false because he said that if someone only uses the eclipses after they happen then he’s false… MGA had the opportunity to foretell them using the scientific knowledge he possessed just as Abdul Ghafar Janba did for the 2003 eclipses. But instead, he waited until someone made a big deal (Padri Fateh Masih) and then he later lied saying that he foretold them in Baraheen e Ahmadiyya 12 years prior to them taking place.
This whole narration is totally fabricated. Sunan Darqutni is a Hadith Book where Imam Darqutni collected mostly weak, unreliable und fabricated narrations to highlight which narrations should be thrown in the trash and never taken as part of ones faith.
