POSTSCRIPT-SIGN NUMBER 152 431 And that very malediction was made to descend upon Ghulām Dastagir in keeping with the Quranic verse: عَلَيْهِمْ دَابِرَةُ السَّوء The man who wished to be the like of Muḥammad Tahir, God made him the like of the false Masīḥ. After his death, blessing upon blessing was showered upon me. Hundreds of thousands of people became my followers and three sons [of mine] were born subsequent to his death. Hundreds of thousands of rupees poured in and God granted me fame with honour virtually across the entire globe. Perhaps our opponents will now claim that the false Masiḥ and Mahdi who died as a consequence of Muḥammad Tahir's malediction was actually a coincidental death, not the effect of Muḥammad Tahir's prayer. Thus, how far can we answer such claims? They might as well become athe- ists as it already appears-and proceed to say that Ghulam Dastagīr's death was a coincidence. دل میں اُٹھتا ہے میرے سو سو اُبال کیوں نہیں لوگو تمہیں حق کا خیال Why do you care not for truth, O people? It torments my heart greatly. جس سے کچھ ایماں جو تھا وہ سڑ گیا اس قدر کین و تعصب بڑھ گیا Malice and prejudice have increased so much That it has caused to rot whatever little offaith remained. جس کے باعث سے تمہارا نام تھا کیا یہی تقولے یہی اسلام تھا Was this the very righteousness—the very. Islam― For which you were renowned? 1. Let evil befall them instead (Sūrah at-Taubah, 9:98). [Publisher]
