THE PROMISED MESSIAH'S LOVE FOR HAZRAT MAULAWI NOOR-UD-DEEN 85 wealth and property were consumed in religious propagation, then I will have achieved my ultimate end. If the buyers of Barahin[-e-Ahmadiyya] are agitated over the delay in the publishing of the book, then please allow me to render the insignificant service of refunding their entire payments from my own account. Honoured Leader and Guide! This unworthy and humble servant makes this request; should it be granted, then it would be my good fortune. My desire is to shoulder all the printing costs of Barahin. Thereafter, whatever monies are received from sales may be expensed for your needs. My relation to you is similar to Faruq¹ and I stand ready to sacrifice everything in this cause. Please pray that my death be the death of the Siddiqs [the truthful ones]. 30 1 This phrase may mean a relationship similar to that of Hadrat Umar ibn al-Khattaabra with the Holy Prophet Muhammadsas. Allah knows best. [Publisher]
