Malfuzat - English translation of Urdu Volume 10 188 The Promised Messiah as also narrated another incident related to the same subject as follows: Once a saintly person who was experienced in seeing visions came to Ajodhia. Upon arriving he had laid down in a mosque when he saw a vision wherein Krishan Ji came to him and gave him a gift of seven rupees seeking God’s blessings. The saint was a Muslim, so he refused to accept the money saying, ‘You people are disbelievers and we do not eat your food. ’ Krishan Ji said, ‘Do you judge my status and faith by the standards of present-day Hindus? I am not one of them in the least. On the contrary, my religion is the Oneness of God and I am very close to you people. ’ Besides this, Ibn Arabi writes in his book that it is men- tioned in one hadith that 1 ُ ٌّ أَسْوَد ُ اللَّوْن ِ اسْمُه ٗ كَاهِن ی ِ الْهِنْد ِ نَب ی ِ كَان َ ف mean- ing that there was a Prophet in India whose complexion was dark and whose name was Kahin. Mujaddid Alf Sani Sirhindi has stated that he recognized some graves in India to be those of the Prophets. It is thus clearly established from all these incidents and tes- timonies, as well as from the Holy Quran, that there have been Prophets in India as well. Thus, it is said in the Holy Quran that: 2 ْنِا ْنِّم ٍةَّمُا اَّلِا اَلَخ اَهْيِف ٌرْيِذَن ْنِا ْنِّم ٍةَّمُا اَّلِا اَلَخ اَهْيِف ٌرْيِذَن 1. In one narration, this hadith is recorded as follows: َ َان ك َ َان َ. . . . . و ك ٗ َان َ فِی الْھِنْدِإِسْمُہ ك َ َان ك َ َان َ. . . . . و ك ٗ َان َ فِی الْھِنْدِإِسْمُہ ك َان َ نَبِیًّا ك ٗ أَسْوَدُاللَّوْن ِ سَوَادًاشَدِیْدًا،قِیْل َ إِنَّہ َان َ نَبِیًّا ك ٗ أَسْوَدُاللَّوْن ِ سَوَادًاشَدِیْدًا،قِیْل َ إِنَّہ Dust u r al-‘Ulam a ’ J a mi‘ul-‘Ul u m f i I st al aha t al- Fun u n , by Q adi ‘Abd an-Nab i bin ‘Abd ar-Ras u l, Juzw 3, p. 81, B a bul-K a f ma‘ al-Alaf, D a rul-Kutub al-‘Ilmiyyah Beirut, Lebanon 2000 [Publisher] 2.
