B AR Ā H Ī N-E-A H M ADIY YA — PART F IV E 312 of the Holy Prophet, may peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, that he did not learn even a single word from any teacher, nor did he acquire any knowledge of the sciences or philosophy; rather, he was born among a people all of whom were unlettered and uninitiated to learning and who lived a barbaric existence; and, besides this, he did not have occasion of parental instruction—all these facts put together give us a clear insight into the divine origin of the Holy Quran, and we are convinced that it is indeed a miracle of knowledge, so much so that by beholding this Book we virtually behold God. Since it is clearly evident that these verses of S u rah al-Mu’min u n from the beginning to the verse: 1 َكَرٰبَتَف ُهّٰللا ُنَسْحَا َنْيِقِلٰخْلا are a miracle of knowledge, there can be no doubt that this verse: َكَرٰبَتَف ُهّٰللا ُنَسْحَا َنْيِقِلٰخْلا is a part of that miracle of knowledge, and thus, being one component of a miracle, is to be counted as a miracle. And this is what I intended to prove. Bear in mind that the aforementioned miracle of knowledge is such a clear, open, luminous, and evident truth that even reason is now eager to add it to its rational sciences with great pride after the guidance and emphasis by the Word of God Almighty. It stands to reason that the first act [movement] that develops in the heart of a pure-natured person, in his quest for God Almighty, is in the form of khush u ‘ [meekness] and humbleness. Khush u ‘ implies that meekness, servitude, and humility be adopted for the sake of God and all the evil traits that are opposed to this, such as arrogance, conceit, 1. So blessed be Allah, the Best of creators ( S u rah al-Mu’min u n, 23:15). [Publisher]
