1 April 1906 359 The Promised Messiah as said: A person is mentioned who used to hold a long tasb ih in his hand and was passing through a street. On the way, an old woman saw that he was counting how many times he was recit- ing the name of God with the tasb ih. She said, ‘Does anyone count how often he makes mention of a friend?’ He threw away the tasb ih right there and then. The blessings of Allah are innu- merable; who can count them? 1 1 April 1906 Divine Revelation Mention was made of the Divine revelation: سَمًّی ُّ ُ اِلٰی وَقْت ٍ م هللا ُ رَہ َّ اَخ سَمًّی ُّ ُ اِلٰی وَقْت ٍ م هللا ُ رَہ َّ اَخ [Allah has postponed it, till a time appointed. ] The Promised Messiah as said: On the day preceding it there was a revelation in the manner of a supplication: ر ْ وَقْت َ ھٰذَا ِّ اَخ ِّ رَب ر ْ وَقْت َ ھٰذَا ِّ اَخ ِّ رَب [O my Lord! Postpone the time of this earthquake which seems imminent. ] 1 Badr, vol. 2, no. 12, p. 2, dated 22 March 1906 and al- H akam, vol. 10, no. 10, p. 1, dated 24 March 1906
