206 MALFUZAT - ENGLISH TRANSLATION OF URDU VOLUME 7 The fact is that the state of faith remains sound and strong so long as the ever-fresh support and Signs of God Almighty con- tinue to appear; otherwise, the satanic sciences have become so entrenched that they cannot possibly be expelled from minds without the wrathful chastisement that descends from heaven. They require such a [severe] thrashing that Satan will run out screaming. Allah the Exalted is Rahim [the Merciful]. Therefore, He is bestowing grace upon His servants through these Signs and strengthening their faith. The Promised Messiahas said: On the 5th of May, I broke the leaf of a jāmun [jambul]. When I looked at it carefully, I found this same thing written on it everywhere: لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ [There is no one worthy of worship except Allah. ]¹ 1. Al-Hakam, vol. 9, no. 16, p. 8, dated 10 May 1905 Note by the editor of Badr : وَلَنِعْمَ مَا قِيلَ . ]How great is what was said[: ہر ورق دفتریست معرفت کردگار برگ درختان سبز در نظر ہو شیار In the eyes of a person who is ever vigilant and aware, Every leaf from among the green leaves of a tree is like a register of Signs for the cognisance of God.
