121. One [Hundred-Twenty First] Sign

In the days when the earthquake of 4 April 1905 struck, I had been told by God Almighty that it was not just one earthquake and there would be more earthquakes. This is why, by way of precaution, I, along with my family members and most of my Jama‘at members, shifted to the garden and stayed there in two marquees in a large open ground. During those days, my wife fell seriously ill and was suffering from constant fever that was accompanied by cough. She was under the treatment of my sincere friend Maulawi Hakim Nur Din but no improvement was felt. Things came to such a pass that she became almost immobile; in the evenings, her lady attendants made her sit on a cot and carried her to the marquee and in the mornings they would carry her back to the garden. She was getting weaker and weaker by the day.

Eventually, I fervently prayed and received the revelation:

Meaning that, my Lord God is with me; He shall presently inform me what the disease is and also about its treatment.

Within a few minutes of this revelation it was put in my heart that her illness was due to the inflammation of the liver and that the prescription set out in the book Shifa’ul-Asqam would be helpful for it. That prescription was prepared. It was in the shape of tablets. After she had taken three or four tablets, I saw in my dream one morning that a person named ‘Abdur-Rahman entered our home and he stopped and said that the fever is broken. It is a wonderful manifestation of the providence of Allah that no sooner had I seen the dream than I checked her pulse only to find no trace of the fever. Then I received the following revelation:

Since you came to My Mansion, time after time, Then did God send down the rain of mercy or not?

Many people are witness to this prophecy as well. Whoever wishes, may ask them.
