1882 65 S uffah 78 will be. They will be very strong of faith. You will see their eyes shedding tears; they will call down blessings on you. 79 They will supplicate: Our Lord we have heard a Caller, calling people to the faith [ and a Summoner to Allah ] and a refulgent lamp. So we have believed. Write down all these prophecies for they will be fulfilled in due time. [Barahin-e-Ahmadiyyah, part 3, pp. 238–242 subfootnote 1, R uha n i Khaz a ’in, vol. 1, pp. 265–268 subfootnote 1] 1882 On page 242 of Barahin-e-Ahmadiyyah 80 the revelation is mentioned … 81 … This was followed by the revelation: 78 Allah the Almighty has blessed the A sha bu s - S uffah mentioned in the revelation with His approval. He who does not abandon everything and come and dwell here, or at least does not entertain that desire, makes me apprehensive lest he should be lacking in the purifying relationships. This is a grand prophecy and proclaims the greatness of those who were, in divine knowledge, destined to leave their homes, countries and properties and to take up their residence in Qadian to be near me. [Tiry a qul-Qul u b, p. 60 , R uha n i Khaz a ’in, vol. 15, pp. 262–263] 79 It is part of human nature that a believer on experiencing some special divine manifestation calls down blessings. Thus the revelation: They will call down blessings on you, indicates that those who will be close to me all the time shall witness many Signs and will be so affected by them that often their eyes will start running and, in the height of emotion, they will call down blessings on me involuntarily. This is happening and this prophecy is fulfilled over and over again.
