* ( S u rah al-Anbiy a ’ , Part 17) Hasty Response of the Detractors of Barahin-e-Ahmadiyya ** Many Christian missionaries and Hindu gentlemen have claimed, somewhat rashly, that they will write rebuttals to this book. The derogatory language they have used in their announcements— which have been published in the newspapers Saf i r-e-Hind and N u r Afsh an , and the magazine Viddya Prak a shak— is more in keeping with the style and manner of the uncivilized, and serves only to betray the depravity and corruption of their own nature. They seem to labour under the illusion that their threats and inde- cent remarks will cause me fright. They are unaware that I know them too well and the mendacity and sordidness of their thinking * I will certainly show you My Signs but ask Me not to hasten. S u rah al-Anbiy a ’, 21:38 [Publishers] ** Note by Hadrat Maulana Jalal-ud- d in Shams ra : This Announcement is included in the first and third editions, but not in the second.
