Testimony of the Holy Quran — Page 125
H A D R AT M IR Z A GHU L A M AH M AD A S 125 completely uprooted their faith. Although their tongues indeed profess Islam, their hearts have deviated far from it. In their esti - mation, God’s Word and His manifestations are laughable. Miy an Ata Muhammad suffers from the same condition. I remember when Mr. Abdullah Atham was informed at Amritsar of the prophecy regarding his death, Miy an Ata Muhammad vis - ited me at my place and narrated a story to me about a doctor who predicted his death within a specified time. The specified period passed without incident, after which he went to the doctor and greeted him. The doctor asked him who he was. He replied that he was the very same Ata Muhammad whose death he had foretold. What he actually wanted to intimate through this story was that all these matters are mere fabrications and futile. But Miy an Ata Muhammad must remember that his narrating the story about the doctor proves only that he is completely bereft of heavenly light. Undoubtedly, there exists One Being who is called God and who shows heavenly Signs in support of His true Religion, not just in a specific age but whenever the need arises and, thus, rein - vigorates the faith of people. The story of the doctor serves only to betray the state of his belief in God. I consider it appropriate to finish this treatise here. ۡرُ. ي ِ وَنِعۡم َ النَّص ى ٰ ِرًا وَبَاطِنًا ھُو َ مَوۡلَنَا نِعۡم َ الۡمَوۡل ھ ِِّٰ اَوَّل ً وَاٰخِرًا وَظَا لل ُ فَالْحَمْد [All Praise belongs to Allah, in the beginning and in the end, openly and secretly.
