POSTSCRIPT-SIGN NUMBER 129 379 عُيُونِ اللَّهِ مَاءًا شَرِبْنَا مِنْ بِوَحْيِ مُشْرِقٍ رَوَيْنَا We drank water from the springs of Allah— The water of resplendent revelation—until we were satiated. رَأَيْنَا مِنْ جَلَالِ اللهِ شَمْسًا فَامَنَّا وَ صَدَّقْنَا يَقِينا We witnessed a Sun of Allah's glory, So we believed and testified with certainty and conviction. وَ أُخرى فِي عَشَائِرِ كَافِرِيْنَا قَطِيعِى تَجَلَّتْ مِنْهُ أَيُّ فِي One kind of His Signs appeared among my own Jama'at, While the other kind appeared among the disbelieving horde. 129. ONE HUNDRED TWENTY-NINTH] SIGN-Maulawi Rusul Baba of Amritsar had written a wholly nonsensical and absurd pamphlet named Hayatul-Masih [i. e, “The Life of the Messiah'] against me. It was his statement that if this plague was a Sign of the Promised Messiah's truth, why did he [Rusul Bābā] himself not contract the plague? In the end he was seized by the plague. Right in the midst of his illness with plague, I received this revelation on Friday: يَمُوْتُ قَبْلَ يَوْمِن هَذَا. Meaning that, he would die before the next Friday. Accordingly, he departed from this mortal world before the next Friday, 8 December 1902, at 5:30 AM. This revelation of mine had been published before his death. It has also been published in al-Ḥakam. Along with it, I received the following revelation: سَلَامٌ عَلَيْكَ يَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ، سَلَامٌ عَلَى أَمْرِكَ، صِرْتَ فَآئِزًا. Meaning that: Peace on you, O Ibrāhīm [Abraham]. Peace be upon your affair. You became victorious.
