Blessings of Khilafat — Page 52
52 their sake, I explain that although the Promised Messiah as is not among us now, yet he will testify to the truth of my claim that I had actually seen this vision on 8th March of that year. In fact, I had narrated this vision of mine to the Promised Messiah as in the morning of the very next day I had seen it. Having listened to the dream, he became greatly worried and said, ‘Mosque is interpreted as the Jam a ‘at. Maybe some from among the members of my Jam a ‘at would oppose me. Repeat it so that I can write it down. ’ I narrated it to him once again and he recorded it in the notebook which he normally used to note down his revelations. First, he put down the date, then wrote ‘Vision Seen by Mahmud’ and then noted down all the visions. On the pages prior to these three visions and the ones following them are the revelations which the Promised Messiah as had himself recorded in it. [At this time, Hadrat Mu s le h -e-Mau‘ u d ra showed the notebook to the audience] The notebook is still with me and can be produced before every seeker after truth. Those who recognize the handwriting of the Promised Messiah as can testify that the contents of the notebook were registered by none other than him. Many revelations over a number of years are recorded in it, and the visions that I have related to you are also recorded in it in the handwriting of the Promised Messiah as himself. This is such strong evidence that no true Ahmadi can deny its veracity, for he who denies such clear and explicit signs, will have to deny all other signs. Having come to know of this vision, everyone can now understand why I am so confident and full of conviction regarding the importance of Khilafat , and why in the face of every ordeal I have been such a strong supporter of the institution of Khilafat.
