SIGN NUMBER 203 749 203. SIGN NUMBER TWO HUNDRED AND THREE—A few days before 13 April 1907, I received the following revelation: أَرَدْتُ زَمَانَ الزَّلْزَلَةِ As a result, it was published beforehand in the two newspapers, Badr and al-Hakam. The meaning of this revelation was: 'I will cause the days of the earthquakes to return. ' After this, an earthquake hit the Punjab, the news of which I received from Khairabad, District Peshawar. It was a devastating earthquake, a sample of Doomsday. I also received the news about the earthquake from Lawrencepur and many other places and many friends wrote letters to me; news of this was also published in the Civil and Military Gazette. Later it was learnt through the English newspapers that America and parts of Europe had also been shaken by three terrifying earth- quakes after the revelation, resulting in the destruction of a number of cities. Since the prophecy is general in its implication, it is understood that this will not be the end of it all; rather, many more earthquakes will happen, for God says, 'The time has come that I shall once again shake the earth with earthquakes. ' Therefore, do wait for these earth- quakes. Decrees of God cannot be averted. 204. SIGN NUMBER TWO HUNDRED AND FOUR-Maulawi 'Abdul- Majid, a resident of Delhi, after referring to me in his book, Bayānun Lin-Nas, challenged me and prayed against me by means of a mubā- halah, saying that the one who lied should die in the lifetime of the one who is truthful. Hence, he suddenly died within my lifetime. This indeed is worth taking a lesson from.
