662 HAQIQATUL-WAḤI-THE PHILOSOPHY OF DIVINE REVELATION SR. DATE SENDER'S VILLAGE, GIST OF THE LETTER No. NAME TEHSIL, 3 31 March 'Umar-ud- 1907 DISTRICT Mianwali, Dīn Chaud- Sialkot hary 4 31 March 'Inayatullā, 1907 Dyer 5 1 April 1907 Nabi The prophecy of 7 March 1907 for the manifestation of which a condition precedent comprised the time frame of twenty-five days or 'by the twenty-fifth day' and in which it was written that the event would be amazing and awe-in- spiring came to be fulfilled today by the grace of Allah the Exalted. This hum- ble one in company with some of my brethren, namely Jiań Lambardar; Fadl Ilāhī, a landlord; Ali Bakhsh, a landlord, and a few others were sitting near the mosque and observing things. It was ear- ly evening, the time of the late afternoon Aşr Prayer, when a sizeable fragment of fire fell from the sky to the north-east of our village. The fire emitted was so intense that the spectators covered their eyes with their palms and a long smoky tail remained in the sky for a little while. This awesome and amazing spectacle as- tonished the men and women. Whatever news of future events the Gracious God reveals to His appointed one is fulfilled at its appointed time. Chawinda, Congratulations! The divine Sign which Sialkot was to be fulfilled within 25 days has come to pass. The following people stat- ed that on 31 March, at 4 pm during the day an extremely bright flame of light appeared, turned into smoke and subse- quently came down like a cloud. Ganga Rām Arora, Dina Nāth, Baggā Khatri, Thākur Dās, Raḥīm Bakhsh Nelari postal clerk Chawinda, contractor 'Abdullah. I saw it turning into smoke and falling down. My postman Rām too saw it.
