      The Ahmadiyya Anjuman Isha‘at Islam (Ahmadiyya Society for the propagation of Islam), based in Lahore, Pakistan, is an international Muslim body devoted to the presentation of Islam through literary and missionary work. Since its inception in 1914, it has produced a range of highly acclaimed, standard books on all aspects of Islam, and has run Muslim missions in many parts of the world, establishing the first ever Islamic centres in England (at Woking) and Germany (Berlin). The literature produced by the Anjuman, largely written by Maulana Muhammad Ali, is deep research work of the highest quality, based purely on the original sources of Islam. It has corrected many wrong notions about the religion of Islam, and has received world wide acclaim for its authenticity, scholarship and service of the faith.

      Continuing the mission of Hadrat Mirza Ghulam Ahmad, the mujaddid of the 14th century Hijra, the Ahmadiyya Anjuman seeks to revive the original liberal, tolerant and rational spirit of Islam. It presents Islam as a great spiritual force for bringing about the moral reform of mankind, and shows that this religion has never advocated coercion, the use of physical force or the pursuit of political power in its support.

      Footnote / Endnote references

      In the e-book format, it is necessary to place all footnotes at the end of the document, in effect, converting them to “endnotes”. In this book, the footnotes are generally short citation references, and to move back and forth to the end of the document was deemed more cumbersome than placing the citation within the text. Therefore, we have placed all the footnotes within the text in a smaller type size for ease of reference.

      E-book Publisher’s Note

      “And when the books are spread” (81:10)

      It gives us great pleasure to present Maulana Muhammad Ali’s Muhammad and Christ in this e-book format. With the increasing popularity of e-readers, e-books have, by many accounts, become a preferred means to read literature. In order to continue to have the world-renowned literary treasures written by Maulana Muhammad Ali and other Lahore Ahmadiyya authors easily accessible to the general public, we have ventured to generate e-books of our standard publications.

      This e-book of Muhammad and Christ by Maulana Muhammad Ali is a result of this new venture. Additional titles converted to e-book format include, English Translation and Commentary of the Holy Quran, Teachings of Islam, Muhammad the Prophet, History of the Prophets, The Manual of Hadith, The Early Caliphate, Living Thoughts of Prophet Muhammad, and others.

Therefore, we have placed all the footnotes within the text in a smaller type size for ease of reference.

      We would like to thank our proofreaders within the USA and abroad for their meticulous checking of the proofs of this e-book. May Almighty Allah bless and reward all who have contributed and sacrificed in this cause.
