POSTSCRIPT-SIGN NUMBER 160 451 Thus, Allah be praised that I am still alive. Miyāń Muḥy-ud-Dīn died some ten years ago and, after this 'revelation' of his, three more sons were born to me. If after this revelation, Muḥy-ud-Din too was blessed with any son who is still alive, I pledge that I shall pay one hundred rupees in cash to his wife; otherwise, it is obvious that this revelation of his fits his own self. I have heard from a reliable source that after this revelation no son was born to him. On the other hand, an adult son [of his] passed away. Only one son is still alive. In short, this revelation, which was in the manner of a mubahalah, recoiled on his very self and its meanings as revealed by the events are just that the first to die is indeed the Pharaoh, and the one who is the surro- gate of Mūsā is the subject of the other revelation, namely éljá Ól which means that, during his very lifetime, his enemy would die issueless, would remain bereft of all bounties and blessings, and would be totally uprooted. Had Maulawi 'Abdur-Rahman Muḥy-ud-Din not published both of these revelations, and had it not been his intent-as is clear from the very beginning of his letter-to humiliate me before the eyes s of the entire nation of Islam and to make me be perceived as a ‘Pharaoh' and, subsequent to my death, make people persist in cursing me eternally as an impostor and liar, God Almighty would not have caused him to die so soon; but by publicly announcing his revelation, he beguiled the entire world through means of this revelation to perceive that I am an infidel, a hypocrite, and accursed; that I should die in his lifetime along with all of my sons; that all of my affairs should be obstructed; and that he should be established as a man of God and a man of miracles. It is obvious that God Almighty does not tolerate such disgrace with regard to someone who is truly faithful and does not desire that a pure movement be ruined, because, in that case, He Himself would be the enemy of His movement. So God Almighty was pleased with the deci- sion that He destroyed and ruined him [Muḥy-ud-Din] instead, and no son was born to him after this prayer; on the contrary, one of the sons, which he already had, also died.
