The Shining Lamp — Page 87
FOURTEENTH [PROPHECY] 87 bright Sign in the form of an attack would be manifested, and following that attack, a mischief would take place which would bear similarities to the mischief that was carried out against Jesus. Following this revelation was an ilhām in Arabic which means that God will remove the mountains of difficulties and all this will happen with the might of Rahmān [the Gracious One]. In support of this very ilhām, there is another ilhām on page 506 of Barāhīn-e-Ahmadiyya,¹ in which there is the promise of a clear Sign for the Hindus and Christians, as is stated: لَمْ يَكُنِ الَّذِيْنَ كَفَرُوْا مِنْ أَهْلِ الْكِتَابِ وَ الْمُشْرِكِينَ مُنْفَكِّيْنَ حَتَّى تَأْتِيَهُمُ الْبَيِّنَةُ وَكَانَ كَيْدُ هُمْ عَظِيمًا. Meaning: The idol-worshippers and Christians would not refrain from rejecting the truth unless they were shown a manifestly clear Sign, and they indeed had a very great design. Then it is further stated that: اگر خدا ایسا نہ کرتا تو دُنیا میں اندھیر پڑ جاتا۔ Had God not intervened, the earth would have become enveloped in darkness. This is that same clear Sign which has been expressed in other places through the words 'brilliant light' and is the Sign of the 1.
