94. Essence of Islam-IV. I assure you that God has bestowed understanding of the Qur'an upon me. Whenever He, glorified be His name, so wills He discloses certain Qur'ānic verities to me and makes manifest to me the true connotation of some verses together with the reasoning in its support and causes it to be established firmly in the heart like an iron nail. How then can I reject this Divine favour and how can I deny the grace that descends upon me like rain. [Al Haq, Mubāḥatha Ludhiāna, Rūḥānī Khazā'in, vol. 4, p. 21] ید بیضا که با او تابنده باز با ذوالفقار مے بینم. That is, on account of incontrovertible arguments, his bright hand flashes like a sword. Then I see him with the Dhulfiqār. 60. This means that there was a time when the Dhulfiqar was in the hand of ‘Alita, but God Almighty shall bestow it into the hand of this Imām in such a way that his shining hand will accomplish that which the. Dhulfiqar accomplished in the early days. Thus his hand will be as the Dhulfiqar of ‘Alita that has been made manifest once again. This is an indication that the said Imām will be Sultan-ul-Qalam" and his pen will do the work of Dhulfiqār. This prophecy is the exact rendering of the revelation vouchsafed to me, which was published in Brāhin-e-Ahmadiyyah ten years ago. It reads: 60 The sword of Hadrat ‘Alia. [Publisher] 61 The King of the Pen. [Publisher]
