This booklet includes two papers on the same topic. The first one was published in the monthly 'MEESAQ' Lahore in 1966. The second is a speech which was delivered before a gathering of the staff and senior students of Aitchison College, Lahore (Pakistan). These articles are based on the sole aim, that is: to explain to Muslims the correct doctrine of eternal salvation and deliverance and the practical demands of the Islamic faith.
