EPILOGUE-SIGNS 573 Meaning that, pray: 'Lord, do not leave me alone [and You are the Best of inheritors]'. From this it is clear that at the time when this prophecy was made, I was all alone. And then, there is another revelation about me recorded in Barahin-e-Ahmadiyya which is as follows: كَزَرْعٍ أَخْرَجَ شَطْأَهُ. Meaning that, I was like the seed sown in the earth. In addition to these revelations, all the residents of this town and thousands of others know that at that time, I was-in fact-like a corpse that had been buried for centuries within a grave. . . and no one knew whose grave it is! Subsequently, Allah the Exalted manifested such wondrous glimpses of His power as constitute clear proof of His existence. And then Allah the Exalted did not stop at this. He granted acceptance to hundreds of my supplications, some of which are recorded in this book by way of examples. In every legal case filed against me, I alone was victorious and God informed me in advance of each verdict that your enemy would be defeated. And everyone who entered into the mubähalah with me, God Almighty either caused him to die, or a life of humiliation or paucity of means became his lot, or his lineal descent was cut off. And those who sought my death and abused me, ultimately died themselves. And God manifested so many Signs in my support that they cannot be counted. Let any wise person who fears God and is moved by His majesty and is reasonable enough to have regard for decency and honour, judge for himself whether the way of God is such that He treats anyone whom He knows to be an impostor and who lies in His name, the way He treats me. I assert with absolute truth that I was young when I started having these revelations and now I am old and almost seventy years of age, but over this period of thirty-five years, my God did not separate Himself from me even for a single day.
