Noah's Ark: An Invitation to Faith — Page 97
NOAH'S ARK blessed me more than he. Now, when I occupy such a status, just think of the rank occupied by the Holy Messengers in whose servitude I have come. ذَلِكَ فَضْلُ اللَّهِ يُؤْتِيهِ مَنْ يَشَاءُ In matters such as these there can be no room for jealousy or envy. God does what He wills. One who opposes the will of God is not only thwarted in their endeavours, but after their demise they are sent to hell. Ruined are those who have taken a mere mortal for God. Ruined are those who have not accepted a divinely chosen Prophet. Blessed are those who have recognised me. Of all the ways that lead to God I am the last, and of all His lights I am the last. Unfortunate is one who rejects me, for besides me there is nothing but darkness. The second means of guidance given to Muslims is the Sunnah, that is, the practical example of the Holy Prophet, peace and turn bitter. As for the unfortunate Muhammad Hassan, he died in accordance with my prophecy recorded in Ijaaz-ul-Masih. And now the other unfortunate one, [namely Pir Mehr Ali Shah] has become another victim of إِنِّي مُهِينٌ مَنْ أَرَادَاهَانَتَكَ ,the prophecy فَاعْتَبِرُوا يَا ولِي الْأَبْصَارِ ** [So take a lesson, Oye who have eyes!] (Author) *I shall disgrace him who seeks to dishonour you. [Publisher] ** [Surah Al-Hashr, 59:3, Publisher] 'That is Allah's grace; He bestows it upon whomsoever He pleases (Surah Al- Maa'idah, 5:55) [Publisher] 97
