1906 909 Translation: (1) [Arabic] I shall safeguard all who are in this house. (2) [Arabic] I determined to appoint a vicegerent, so I created this A dam [Adam]. [Badr, vol. 2, no. 32, August 9, 1906, p. 2 and al- H akam, vol. 10, no. 28, August 10, 1906, p. 1] August 5, 1906 On one occasion, the lower half of my body became numb so that I could not move one step…. I apprehended that these were symptoms of paralysis. I was in great pain and was restless. I could not even turn over in bed. During the night when I was in great pain, I was fearful—for the sake of faith, and for no other motive—that my opponents would gloat over it and I supplicated before the Almighty…. Thereupon, in a light slumber the revelation came to me: That is [Arabic] Allah has power to do all that He wills, Allah does not humiliate the believers. I call to witness God, the Benevolent, in Whose hand is my life and Who is also observing at this moment whether I am lying against Him or telling the truth, that within perhaps half an hour of this revelation I went to sleep and when I woke up suddenly, I found that no trace of my trouble was left. All were asleep and I got up and began to walk about to test my recovery and was satisfied that I was perfectly well.
