Malf uza t - English translation of Urdu Volume 9 362 The renowned sages of the Hindus—Raja R a mchandra and others—all used to hunt. Keeping in mind the law of God, one should consider: Can man can go on living without it? Women Excelling in Faith The Promised Messiah as said: Many women come to our home and take the Pledge of Allegiance. There is no arrangement yet to record their names among my followers. I have seen that some women due to their staunch faith have excelled men. Men do not have a monopoly on excellence. Whoever grows in faith, will advance, whether man or woman. Give Priority to God Almighty A friend, who despite taking an extended leave had not been able to come to Qadian as he was having a building constructed, had come to be in the presence of the Promised Messiah as for one or two days. Someone submitted that he had an extended leave and thus should stay in Qadian. The Promised Messiah as said: There is a Punjabi proverb, ا اہلل ونں ولڑ ی � ی ا وتں ولڑ ّدقمںیم ی � [‘Either pur- sue lawsuits or pursue Allah’]. That is, a person should either engage in the worship of God Almighty or he should pursue the world, engaging in law- suits, etc. Only one can take place. It is difficult to walk in two directions.
