1900 531 Translation: [Arabic] We sent Ahmad to his people, but people said: ‘He is a great liar. ’ They started bearing false witness against him and fell upon him like the waters of a flood. He said: My Friend is near but hidden. My help will come to you. I am the Gracious One. You possess the capability and will receive plentiful rain. I shall send to you the groups from every people in large numbers. I have illumined your house. This is a revelation from Allah, the Mighty, the Merciful. If someone asks: ‘How would we know that this is revelation from God’, the evidence for them is that this revelation is accompanied by many Signs. Allah will never furnish the disbelievers with a cause to make a real charge against the believers. You are the city of knowledge, pure and accepted of the Gracious One. You are My High Name. Glad tidings for you in these days. You are from Me, O Ibr a h i m [Abraham]. You are established on His attributes. You are the manifestation of the Ever-Living One. You are the beginning of the desired affair from Me. You are from Our water and they are from cowardice.
