428 HAQIQATUL-WAḤI—THE PHILOSOPHY OF DIVINE REVELATION لعنتی گر او نه برما خویش را رُسوا کند برما کند لعنتة Let the accursed, curse me; He only condemns his own fate. لعنت آن باشد که از رحمان بود اہل جفا آسان بود Easy it is to bear the curse of the wicked, For only the curse of God is worthy of fear. 152. [ONE HUNDred fifty-second] SIGN-Addressing me in a general sense, God had said: إِنِّي مُهِيْنٌ مَّنْ أَرَادَ إِهَانَتَكَ Meaning that: I shall humiliate him who designs to humiliate you. This prophecy has been fulfilled against hundreds of my enemies. This book is not enough to accommodate all the details. A great many of these people remarked about me, ‘He is an impostor and will die of the plague', but through God's power, they themselves died of the plague. There are a great many who put forth their 'revelation' that God had informed them [about me] that this man would die soon. Glory be to God that they themselves died shortly after such of their 'revela- tions. Still others had prayed against me that I may soon die, but they themselves died very soon thereafter. People might recall the revelation of Maulawi Muḥy-ud-Din of Lakhukay, who proclaimed that I was a disbeliever and had likened me to Pharaoh, and had published his 'revelations' about the torment that was to befall me. In the end, he himself died, and it has now been sev- eral years since he departed from this world. Maulawi Ghulām Dastagīr of Qaşur had similarly crossed all limits in hurling abuses at me. He had procured edicts of disbelief against me from Makkah. He, too, would pray against me day in and day out, and [The curse of Allah be upon the liars'] was his routine invocation. But that was not all.
