Hazrat Khalifatul-Masih V (may Allah be his Helper) stated:
“The fulfilment of this prophecy is not restricted merely to the birth of one person and the work he accomplished. The deeper reality of this prophecy will shine forth when people from among us will arise to carry forward the work for which the Promised Messiah (peace be upon him) was sent, and for the support and succour of which Allah the Exalted granted him the Promised Reformer—who devoted all his abilities to the propagation of Islam and [the task of] reformation throughout the world.
“Thus, today our responsibility is that we strive to become reformers within our respective circles. With our knowledge, our words, and our deeds, we must spread Islam’s beautiful message everywhere. We must give attention to the reformation of our own selves, the reformation of our children, and the reformation of society. And we must exert our full effort to establish in the world that reformation and that message for which Allah the Exalted made the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) the ultimate source. If we live our lives with this mindset, then we will truly fulfil the right of Musleh-e-Mau’ud Day; otherwise, our words will be nothing but hollow speeches. May Allah the Exalted grant us the ability to do so.”
