22 October 1907 505 22 October 1907 (At the time of Z uhr) Claimants of Receiving Divine Revelation The Promised Messiah as said: There are approximately twenty to twenty-five, rather thirty such individuals in our Community who claim to be the recip- ients of revelation. I am constantly concerned about their state of mind. A person ought to reflect upon their condition and observe the relationship that they keep with God, and should not concern themselves with the whisperings of their minds. When I receive letters from such people, rather than pleasing me, Allah the Exalted knows that I am concerned whether they have gone mad. When I read such a letter, my body trem- bles. The rejection of the soothsayer and madmen by Allah the Exalted is for the reason that sometimes they also come to know of some occurrences. Man should purify his relationship with God. Adulterers, the impious, and the immoral can still seek repentance, but such people never repent as they consider themselves above it and due to these matters, they become arrogant.
