(2) [Arabic] I have illumined you and chosen you. (3) [Arabic] And a matter will descend from heaven which will please you. (4) [Urdu] Two Signs will be shown. (5) [Urdu] God Almighty does not wish to preserve him. (This refers to someone specific). (6) [Arabic] We shall seize him with painful torment. (7) [Urdu] May God preserve you. (8) [Arabic] Men whom We shall direct through revelation from heaven will help you. (9) [Arabic] People will come to you by every distant track. Presents will come to you by every distant track. (10) [Arabic] Peace be on you, may you be happy. (11) [Arabic] You should not be discourteous towards those who visit you and be not tired by their large number. [Publishers] Note by Hadrat Maul ana Jalal-ud-Din Shams ra : The two Signs referred to in the revelation were the deaths of Sa‘adull a h of Ludhiana and Dr. Dowie of America. The Promised Messiah [as] writes: In the East, Sa‘adull a h of Ludhiana died of pneumonic plague in the first week of January after my prophecy and the prayer duel. This was the first Sign. The second Sign, much greater in magnitude and a precursor of great victory, is the death of Dowie which occurred in the West…. This fulfils the divine revelation that Allah the Almighty will show Two Signs. [Tatimmah H aq iq atu l -Wa hi , p. 74 footnote, R uha n i Khaz a ’in vol. 22, p. 510]
