Malfuzat - English translation of Urdu Volume 10 342 Remember this well, that the continuation of discourse and converse [with God] is the soul of Islam. If Islam did not have this honour, then—like other religions—it, too, would have been a dead religion. Understand this point very well that if Islam had also been devoid of this blessing and grace of Allah, then certainly there would have been no reason for its emi- nence. This is the special grace of God that He has continued to send such living examples in Islam at the head of every century, and has, thereby, continued to prove to the world that Islam is a living religion. There was a time when Islam was such a religion that its renunciation by a single person caused people to imagine that the world had come to an end, but now, it is that same Islam, yet hundreds of thousands have renounced it and became faith- less. A concerted effort was made to annihilate Islam through internal and external assaults. Islam was defamed; it was tram- pled and crushed underfoot. Being ignorant of the essence of the Faith, those claiming to be Muslim are themselves proving to be the enemy of the Faith. Now, tell me what other misguidance and deviation remains that is now being awaited? Just read the books of Reverend Pfander from among the Christians and see for yourself. He writes that there is not a single prophecy in the religion of Islam that was made nor is there any that was fulfilled. He declares that the prophecy of: 1 ّٓمٓلا۰۰ ِتَبِلُغ ُمْوُّرلا۰۰ ّٓمٓلا۰۰ ِتَبِلُغ ُمْوُّرلا۰۰ was guesswork and deception, and alleges that the Holy Prophet s as had—God forbid—framed this estimation from 1. I am Allah, the All-Knowing. The Romans have been defeated ( S u rah ar-R u m, 30:2–3). [Publisher]
