Since the book has now been expanded to three hundred juzw’, I would like to request those buyers who have not yet made any payment, or have not paid in full, that, if nothing else, they be kind enough to remit their remaining payments without delay. The true value of the book is now one hundred rupees but it is being given away at twenty-five or even ten rupees; despite this, if Muslims cannot pay this meagre amount in advance, then this would mean that they themselves are hindering the completion of this task. I have written this only to use the worldly means at our disposal. Otherwise, if someone will not help me or will show indifference to my appeal, in reality he will only be depriving himself of great blessings. The works of God can never be impeded, nor have they ever been. Whatever the All-Powerful wills can never be deferred by the heedlessness of anyone. [And peace be on those who follow the guidance].
Humbly,
Mirza Ghulam Ahmad
