Should we construct monuments to serve as reminders of the sacrifices of the companions of Muhammad?

Huzoor (rh): We do. We have written so much on Sahaba of Hazrat Rasool e Kareem S.A.W. Articles appear repeatedly in our papers. So much reminder is given to Ahmadis about the good old people who offered sacrifices. And every Friday I also remind you of the sacrifices which are being offered now in the living history. And the previous Khalifs also did the same.

And during every sermon, every Ahmadi scholar most often quotes the sacrifices of some people, some great men. Of the Holy Prophet S.A.W. times or the times of Hazrat Maseeh e Maud S.A.W. This has become a part of life so much so that we have been so familiarized that we don’t take notice of this. It’s happening constantly. And still you say it’s not happening. So if you think there is something to be added to it creatively, you better write an article on this and submit it to me. If there are any useful suggestions contained, I will inshallah follow them. But don’t just blindly follow others.

Questioner: Sir, I had in mind, you see, you know the eternal flame they have, the grave of an unknown soul.

Huzoor (rh): That doesn’t make any difference to them whatsoever. The fact is that that eternal flame as compared to the constant burning flame of Ahmadiyya spirit, living in these hazards and fighting them out. How can you compare the two? There is absolutely a difference of antipodes between the two.
