POSTSCRIPT-SIGN NUMBER 180 483 I pushed it aside with my hand. Then the second one attacked, which I also pushed aside with my hand. Then the third one charged with great force and ferocity creating the impression that escape was abso- lutely impossible. But when it came closer to me, it stopped and stood alongside the wall and I passed by it having rubbed against it. In the meanwhile Allah the Almighty revealed a few words upon my heart which I kept reciting while running. And they are: رَبِّ كُلُّ شَيْءٍ خَادِمُكَ رَبِّ فَاحْفَظْنِيْ وَانْصُرْنِي وَارْحَمْنِيْ. [Lord, everything is in Your service. Then Lord, guard me from the mischief of the wicked and help me and have mercy on me. ] Simultaneous to seeing this [vision] it was conveyed to me that some adversary would initiate litigation [against me] and he will have three lawyers. This revelation and the vision were publicized well before the filing of that suit, having been recorded in the newspaper al-Hakam in 1902 CE; that, is al-Hakam number 24. Thereafter, Karam Dīn filed a legal complaint against me at Jhelum and I was summoned to appear [in the court]. It was a criminal proceeding and was a difficult case. As was revealed in the vision, he had three lawyers. Ultimately, in accord- ance with the promise of God, his complaint was dismissed. See the newspaper al-Hakam, 1902 CE, number 24, volume 6. 1 1. A detailed prophecy has been published about Maulawi Karam Dīn beforehand in the newspaper al-Ḥakam the summary of which is that in a criminal case, the lower court would decide against me and then later I would be acquitted by the appellate court. Accordingly, when Karam Din brought a criminal case against me at Gurdaspur, I was fined Rs500/ by the lower court that is, by Atma Rām's Department. Later, I was honourably acquitted when that verdict was dismissed by the appellate court; that is, the Office of the Divisional Judge. The ruling judge also observed that the terms kadhdhāb [liar] and la'im [sordid] used about Karam Din were appropri- ate, and Karam Dīn deserved these epithets; rather, he deserved them if even harsher words were used about Karam Din; such words caused no defama- tion. This prophecy was published well before time. (Author)
