LETTER TO THE AM i R as 498 right time. Are you surprised at the work of God; He is most Merciful. The Christians have created a mischief by their doctrine that Jesus is still alive in the heavens and they are sunk in obvious unbelief. So God has willed to demolish their foundation and to falsify their reasons and to convince them that they are liars. Hence, it is incumbent upon a person, who believes in the Quran and loves God’s grace, to declare, that I am truthful and join my followers. He who unites his soul with mine, and places his hand under mine in Bai‘at , surely God will exalt him in this world and the next. Such a one will triumph in both the worlds. This word of mine is going to spread very soon. I entrust my work to God. I complain not of my grief and sorrow to anyone except Allah. He is my Lord. I trust in Him alone. He will exalt me and will not let me to be brought to naught. He will grant me honour and not disgrace me. The transgressors will soon know that they are in the wrong. In the end we praise God who is the Creator of all the worlds (Shaww a l, 1313 A. H. ). '
