POSTSCRIPT―SIGN NUMBER 171 of the West. You should, therefore, enter the fold of Hadrat Mirzā Ṣāḥib's devoted followers. ' Faqir Ṣāḥib: 'No, I will not because last night I saw myself standing close to the throne of God and I was told that by the 27th of this Ramadan, Mirza Ghulam Ahmad of Qadian would be visited by a terrible calam- ity. I wonder if it is death or some humiliation resulting in the disarray of his mission and his name and fame would be wiped out and the entire world shall witness this state. If this proph- ecy of mine turns out to be false, I am ready to suffer any kind of punishment. You should get this prophecy of mine published in the newspapers al-Hakam or al-Badr and get a written dec- laration from me. If you do not do so, then let all present hear that you people are following an impostor. ' On the insistence of those present, I, the writer of this letter, got this claimant of revelation to write an affidavit which is the following: Affidavit of Faqir Mirza Containing his Prophecy 465 بِسْمِ اللهِ الرَّحْمٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ نَحْمَدُهُ وَنُصَلَّى عَلَى رَسُولِهِ الْكَرِيمِ [In the name of Allah, the Gracious, the Merciful. We praise Him and invoke His blessings upon His Noble Messenger. ] I, Mirza son of Faiz Bakhsh, 1 caste Awan resident of Dulmial, area Kahun, Tehsil Pind Dadan Khan, District Jhelum, hereby sign this solemn declaration in the presence of the witnesses Mubahalah of Faqir Mirzā included in the letter of Ḥakim Karam Dād 1. This original declaration signed by Faqir Mirzā carrying attestations, seals, and thumb imprints of reliable and respectable witness, has been sent to me by Ḥakim Karam Dād Ṣāḥib, that is kept under safe custody so that it can be shown to everyone who entertains doubt.
