Since great tidings have been given to me about this graveyard and because God did not only say that this graveyard is Bahisht i, 2 but also said Presence. I have chosen you for Myself. Whomsoever you are angry with, I am angry with; and whomsoever you love, I love them too. Allah has selected you from among everything. All praise belongs to Allah who has made you Mas ih Ibn-e-Maryam [the Messiah, Son of Mary]. He is not accountable for that which He does but the people are accountable for what they do. This promise was bound to be fulfilled. Allah will safeguard you against the mischief of your enemies and will attack him who attacks you. This is because they transgressed and treaded upon the ways of disobedience. Is not Allah sufficient for His servant? O mountains and birds! Remember Me with ecstasy and heartfelt pain along with this servant of Mine. Allah has decreed, ‘I and My Messengers shall always prevail. And after their defeat, they shall soon be victorious. Allah is with those who are right- eous and who do good deeds. Those who have believed have the station of righteousness before your Lord. Peace is the word from the Merciful Lord. Step aside today, O ye guilty ones! [Note from Publisher: Translated into Urdu by the author himself as quoted in Haqiqatul-Wahi and Tadhkiratush-Shah a datain ]. 1.
