The Promised Messiahas states:
“It is the practice of God Almighty that even names can, at times, contain hidden prophecies.” (Tiryaq-ul-Qulub, Ruhani Khazain, Vol. 15, p. 275)
This is indeed a fact that when Allah complements one of His servants in a revelation or a dream, that servant then becomes duty-bound to spread those divine names and words and not fret over any worldly objection. The fact is that such divinely revealed names are for the progress of the ummah and people.
The Promised Messiah, Hazrat Mirza Ghulam Ahmadas, included such names in his writings on many occasions. This fact has been elaborated by the Promised Messiahas in the following words:
“[…] and though they might dislike it at first and consider it to be fabricated, Allah the Almighty discloses the truth to them in the end. And once the truthfulness of the humble claimant becomes established and divine support in his favour is manifested, all these praises of the embattled claimant lead to a great victory. It has the extraordinary effect of bringing lost souls back to tawhid [oneness of God] and tafrid [God’s uniqueness]. Even if he has to suffer mockery and ridicule for some time, the very fortitude of such a devotee of the faith in the face of such derision becomes a source of great honour and pride for him.” (Barahin-e-Ahmadiyya Part III [English translation, 2014 edition], p. 216)
Some of the names divinely bestowed to the Promised Messiahas are listed below with some details:
Adam
In regard to the revelation containing this, it says in Barahin-e-Ahmadiyya Part IV:
اَرَدْتُ اَنْ اَسْتَخْلِفَ فَخَلَقْتُ آدَمَ اِنِّيْ جَاعِلٌ فِي الْاَرْضِ
“‘I decided to appoint a khalifa[vicegerent] from Myself so I created Adam. I will establish in the earth.’
“The last sentence is abbreviated; it means, ‘I am going to establish him.’ The word khalifa in this context means a person who would be the means of conveying the message and guidance between Allah and His creatures. Here it does not signify secular khilafat which applies to kingdom or government […] Instead, it connotes only spiritual ranks and spiritual vicegerency. Also, ‘Adam’ does not refer to Adam, the father of mankind; rather, it means a person through whom a movement of conveying the message and guidance would be established to lay the foundation of spiritual birth, as if he is in the position of a father for the seekers after truth […].” (Barahin-e-Ahmadiyya Part IV [English translation, 2016 edition], pp. 368)
