Malfuzat - English translation of Urdu Volume 7 346 of the Promised Messiah as ] that the mother of Is ha q had died and that Is ha q was also near death. This letter was written by Is ha q’s brother, who was very young at that time. I became very concerned upon reading this letter because my wife was ill and had a high fever. It was inappropriate in such a condition to give her the news of her mother’s death. It was in this state of concern that the revelation came: ٌ ْم ی ِ عَظ َ ْدَكُن ی َ ك َ اِن ٌ ْم ی ِ عَظ َ ْدَكُن ی َ ك َ اِن [Your device is indeed mighty. ] I understood from this that it was merely a ruse to call [him to return]; otherwise, everything was fine. Maulaw i ‘Abdul- Kar i m was here at that time. He was told [this revelation], and Ha fi z Ha mid ‘Ali was also told, and he was the one who was sent there. The situation there was exactly the same as God had informed me through revelation. Sheikh Noor Ahmad submitted that he was also here on that day and was a witness to this incident. 1 1.
