Prophets the Seal of Prophets and through him, and as his manifestation, I therefore proclaim that, just as this verse has been proven true from the time of Adam to the time of the Holy Prophets, so will it prove to be true in my case. Do these people not notice that at the time when these Maulavīs and their camp followers had launched a campaign of rejection and vilification against me, there was not a single person in my Bai'at, and all I had were a few friends who could be counted on fingertips.

This has not come about due to any effort on my part, it is in fact the wind blowing from heaven that has made them rush towards me. Let these people think for themselves, how they strived to destroy this Jamā‘at and how they used all kinds of deceit and went to the extent of giving information to the authorities and appearing before courts as witnesses in falsely instituted murder cases, and thus incited the Muslims against me.
