348 *December 21, 1894 (A) had only called out the takb i r aloud. When we had finished the Prayer, I found that Muhammad H usain was sitting in front of us totally naked and it appeared to me that his complexion was dark. I felt embarrassed and would not look at him, but he came over to me and I said to him: Is it not time that you should make up with me; or, perhaps I said: Do you wish to make up with me? He replied in the affirmative and came close and embraced me. At that time he appeared to me like a small child. Then I said to him: If you would agree, I wish you to overlook whatever I have said concerning you, which might have hurt you, but remember that whatever I have said was not but out of goodwill. I fear Allah and the time when we shall all be standing before Him. He said: I overlook all those things. Then I said to him: Bear witness that I have forgiven you all that you have said concerning me and declaring me a disbeliever and your charging me with falsehood. After this, he appeared to me at his full size and I saw him clad in white. Then I said: It has all come about as I had seen in my dream. Then someone called out that a person of the name of Sul ta n Baig was at his last breath; whereupon I said: He will soon die for I had seen in my dream that we shall make up between ourselves on the day of that man’s death. Then I addressed Muhammad H usain and said to him: I had seen in a dream that you and I would make up on the day of the death of Bah a ’-ud-D i n. Muhammad H usain was surprised at this and looked at it as a great wonderful happening and said: This is perfectly true, Bah a ’-ud-Din has indeed died. Then I invited him to a meal and after a little hesitation he accepted. I said to him that I had seen in my dream that we would make up with each other without the intervention of a third party and so it had come about. This was Wednesday December. 12, 1894.
