The occasion to write the ‘Faslul Khitab’ was brought about by an incident which although trivial, proved to be very significant. In Bhera a certain Hafiz was on the brink of being baptized by the Christians. Hazrat Hakim Maulvi Nuruddin (ra) asked the Hafiz sb. to take him to the Christian clergyman in Pind Dadan Khan. The clergyman promised to send the objections to Hazrat Hakim Maulvi Nuruddin (ra) in Jammu. He told the Hafiz not to accept baptism until he (Hafiz) had received answers to the objections of the clergyman. Hafiz sb. did so and was satisfied with the answers. The Hafiz was saved from the fate of apostasy.
The book contains a refutation of all those objections which the gentleman of Pind Dadan Khan had labelled against Islam. The first two volumes of the book were published in Maulvi Abdul Wahid’s press in Delhi in 1888.
The other two volumes were printed in 1906.
