If one’s statement on oath is to be believed, there is no greater guarantee of truth than calling Allah, the Great, to witness. After my death neither you nor any one else will be with me. I will be accompanied only by my faith and my deeds. Everything will be judged by Allah, the Great, by Whose command heaven and earth are upheld. I believe in the righteousness of Hadrat Mirza Sahib as. He was the Reformer of this century. I believe he was a most sincere servant of Muhammad sa , the Messenger of Allah, the Arab Prophet of Mecca, the Kh a tamun Nab i yy i n , and of the law that he brought Hadrat Mirza Sahib as himself considered that he was a most devoted servant of the Arab Prophet Muhammad sa bin ‘Abdul Mu tt alib bin H a sham bin ‘Abd Man a f. The expression Nab i connotes one who predicts in conformity with that which God reveals to him. We do not believe that a Prophet must be a law-bearer. Hadrat Mirza Sahib as and I adhere firmly to the belief that any one who rejects even a vowel-point of the Holy Quran or of the law of Muhammad sa , the Messenger of Allah is a disbeliever and is cast off by God. Anyone who rejects this statement of mine, or denies it, or considers it insincere is accountable to God. " 93
