536 Ā'ĪNA-E-KAMĀLĀT-E-ISLĀM―DĀFI UL-WASĀWIS and commit not disobedience after the matter has been made clear to you by the Holy Prophetas. He is truthful and veracious. He never says anything of his own accord, rather, whatever he says is revealed to him. So, if you consider yourself from amongst the righteous, then you should be humble and should never deny the sayings of the Holy Prophetas. As far as the second calamity is concerned, it is quite evident, and there is no need to explain it further. Do you not reflect upon the Holy Quran and the teachings of the Gracious Allah? How He established firmly the great doctrine of the Oneness of Allah among people and prohibited them to act like the idolaters?! Therefore, you must peer into your hearts and consider how it could be possible that the Dajjāl [Antichrist] could appear the way you think he will appear; how he could give life to the dead, show miracles, and conquer the clouds, the sun, the moon, and the oceans. Moreover, his command would have to carry such weight that when he would determine something in his mind and say 'be', it will happen. Is this what you have understood from the Holy Quran? Was it for this that the chiefs of the Arabs and the leaders of the Quraish shed blood in the Battle of Badr among others? And was it for this that the Muslims as a whole defeated their enemies? Therefore, bear witness and do not be of those who conceal true testimony. How is it possible that the teachings of the Holy Quran are abrogated and are shed like an outer skin? How is it possible that something is unravelled after being well coordinated, and that a Dajjāl suddenly appears to misguide humanity? Why do you tear apart the robe of truth, forget the Day of Resurrection, and seek to produce dis- order in the world after it was established? Be righteous and be not of those who transgress. Can such a master who smashed the idols with his staff who, when asked, 'Is there any Mighty Lord other than Allah?' instructed, 'No'-teach you something against the Holy Quran and the great doctrine of the Oneness of Allah? Never. Surely, he is the most jealous for Allah and His Oneness. So, do not defame and slander this master, falling prey to Satan.
