The Criterion for Religions

The Criterion for Religions, the English rendering of Mi‘yarul Madhahib, was written and published in 1895 by Mirza Ghulam Ahmad, founder of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community.

Even if the books of all other religions were to disappear along with all of their teachings and concepts, God, towards Whom the Holy Quran leads, would still be clearly reflected in the mirror of the laws of nature, and His Might and Wisdom, shall be found glowing in every particle."

Thus, through education and training it has opened the eyes of a whole world.Similarly the profusion of printing presses, has brought to light even the old scriptures 'buried in the earth' "even the Vedas of the Hindus have come out dressed in new pages.

(The Third means) is the opening of the channels of communications, the establishment of an efficient postal system, and the conveyance of books from far off countries to our land and vice versa.

All these means, which, by the grace of God, have now been made available in our country, and from which we are freely benefiting, are instrumental in searching for the truth.Ahmad observes India has three major religious faiths.

Ahmad writes the teachings contained in the Quran were in strict accord with instinctive human requirements and it took them to a higher plank of sublimity and spiritualism.

Ahmad critically examines: Can any pure conscience ever accept that the Creator of heaven and earth, Who is the Omnipotent, and possesses limitless powers, should end up so unfortunate, weak and miserable that mischief-makers should trample him under their feet?
