Is this prophecy that has been recorded a number of times in my books:
Meaning that, God shall not remove this plague from this people and shall not change His will as long as people do not change the condition of their hearts and God will eventually extend His protection to this village [i.e. Qadian]. And He said:
Meaning that, had it not been out of My regard for you, I would have destroyed this entire village and would not have spared anyone.
And He said:
And God is not such that He would have destroyed them all while you dwelt amongst them.
Bear in mind that the phrase used by God Almighty 
means that, after some chastisement, God Almighty will extend His protection to this village. It does not mean that the plague will not visit it at all. The Arabic word 
refers to the refuge offered to a person who is first afflicted with calamity to a certain extent and then enters peace. For instance, Allah the Almighty says:
Meaning that, God found you an orphan and saw you suffering from an orphan’s miseries and then granted refuge. And as He says:
Meaning that, We gave shelter to ‘Isa and his mother after Jews had tyrannized them and wanted to crucify Hadrat ‘Isa(as) [ Jesus], and helped them both reach a mountain which was higher than the rest of the mountains—namely, the Mountain of Kashmir—a region with refreshing water and a place of great amenities and comfort. And as is said in this verse of Surah al-Kahf:
Part Number 15, Surah al-Kahf
Meaning that, come into the protection of the cave; thus, shall God extend His mercy upon you. That is, you will escape the persecution at the hands of the cruel king. In short, the term 
is invariably used when a person, after suffering some hardship, is granted peace. The same prophecy applies to Qadian. Thus, only once did the plague break out in Qadian with some intensity, after which it gradually subsided to the point that this year not a single person died of the plague in Qadian, although hundreds of people died of the plague in its surrounding vicinity.
