POSTSCRIPT QUESTION (9) 237 is essential that some of them must come to pass as is indicated in the Some of that which he threatens] يُصِبْكُمْ بَعْضُ الَّذِي يَعِدُكُمْ ,foregoing verse you with will surely befall you']. Just open your eyes and see the might and splendour with which the prophecy about Lekh Rām was fulfilled from amongst the few prophecies of warning I had announced!

Also, one needs to consider how clearly the prophecy about Ahmad Baig, who was ever ready to refute me and ridiculed me day and night-manifested itself. He died of typhoid fever in a hospital in Hoshiarpur and his death caused a great tumult among his relatives.

Similarly, as was laid down in the prophecy that close to Ahmad Baig's death, other deaths of his relatives too shall take place; so this has also been fulfilled inasmuch as Ahmad Baig's son and two of his sisters died in those very days. Now let my opponents answer whether this part of the verse came true for him or not:
