106 It is cruelty to sow the seeds of evil among mankind; That evil comes to his lot who happens to sow it. Leaving the Quran, they accepted conflicting Traditions 149 Uselessly taking the burden of Muslim and Bukhari 150 on their heads. As the Traditions are prone to misquotes and lies, Then it is stupidity to have total reliance on these. While we have seen the light of Truth with our own eyes, While God’s revelation has informed us time and again, Then how can we give up certitude and follow assumptions, Say yourself: is seeing better or tales shrouded in dust? (370) Differences came in Islam because of numerous sayings; Which shows that the path of narratives cannot be relied. The narratives made an error concerning the life of Jesus Through which the Faith 151 became a peon unto Christianity. A thousand calamities descended upon Islam The disciples of Satan climbed on the neck of the religion. God gave clear indications of the death of Jesus Then what reliance can be placed on conflicting Traditions? If considered suspect, they should then be explained ; Can you attack the Quran for the sake of Traditions? (375) That God Who gave me an honour through His Signs, He is constantly supporting the Quran even now. Beat your heads but no one is coming from the sky now Seven thousand years have passed on the age of the world 152. Waiting for him, the Faith is all but done with Will he then come only when he sees the tomb of Faith? Without the grace of God, the ark of Islam is now sunk; Do something, O passion! Intellect’s assaults are in vain. O God, pray grant me an unusual passion and warmth, which Makes me like a crazed one in support of the Faith. (380) Pray light such a fire in my heart for the sake of people Whose sparks will constantly reach the heavens in profusion. O God! My every cell be sacrificed for Thee Pray show me the spring of Faith for I am full of tears. O Knower of Secrets, pray take a look at our humility This task is Thine to do we have now become restless. Pray do a gracious act turn the people unto the Quran; And give them the ability so they can think and ponder. It is only the Quran that is free of doubt and uncertainty; But they accept, beside it, only a strong opinion 153. (385) Then if I present such narratives from my side, too, Then the power to fight will be constrained for the rival.
