BarĀhĪn-e-a H madiyya — Part Four 354 prophecies and perfect help [from the Divine], as this link is impos- sible and unthinkable in the prophecies of other people. Indeed, such obvious flaws are at times witnessed in the latter prophecies as to reveal their utter baselessness. As for the men of God, their shining prophe- cies are always illumined with the light of truth. Moreover, such blessed prophecies have a reciprocal relationship with the marvelous divine help in a wonderful way. God becomes the Guardian of the works of His servants and helps them in an amazing manner. He remains helpful to them, at all times and at every moment, both openly and secretly. It is His practice that He gives them the news of His help before it comes to pass, and in their times of anxiety and worry, He comforts and satis- fies them with His luminous word.

For, it is obvious that when a person hears, not once but scores of times, someone announcing before the event that he has been promised divine help and then actually witnesses the help materialize with his own eyes, he cannot be so mad or insane as not to believe in those true prophecies and mighty Signs of divine succour. It would of course be a different matter if he were to deliberately deny something he has personally witnessed out of extreme prejudice and dishonesty, but even then his heart will not be able to deny it and will always accuse him of pervesity and stubbornness. I will now record some [of my] recent visions and revelations for the benefit of seekers after truth. And, likewise, if God so wills, I will continue to record in this book from time to time whatever divine gifts are revealed to this humblest servant of God, unless God wills other- wise. And the objective of doing so is that the true seekers of certainty and cognition may benefit from them and so that they might develop serenity in their situations, and so that the veils that are causing them
