Divine Prophecy About a Wrongdoer Is Bound to Be Fulfilled -
208. Sign Number Two Hundred and Eight

When Dayanand, the founder of the Aryah faith, propagated his views in the Punjab and incited mean natured Hindus to insult our Holy Prophet, may peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, and likewise other Prophets; and when he himself, from the moment he began to write, insulted and denigrated all holy and chosen Prophets of God, and made frequent use of the filth of lies, particularly in his own book, Satyarath Prakash, and abused the chosen Prophets in a most vile manner, it was then that I received this revelation about him:

Meaning that, God Almighty will very soon remove such an evil one from the world.

I also received this revelation:

Meaning that, the Aryah religion is decreed to be defeated by God, and they will run away from their religion, turning their backs on it, and it will finally become non-existent.

This revelation came to me a long time ago, a matter of nearly thirty years, and I communicated it to Lalah Sharampat of the Aryah Samaj who lives here.

He was told in plain words that their foul-mouthed pundit Dayanand would die soon. Accordingly, God Almighty saved His religion from this abusive pundit before the year was out and he died in Ajmer. It was a great Sign for Sharampat. However, not only did he fail to benefit from this Sign, he also witnessed many other manifest Signs but unfortunately did not accept Islam even then. In a separate book named Qadian kay Aryah aur Hamm, I have recorded all these Signs of which not only Sharampat but many other Hindus of Qadian also are witnesses. Alas, these people have not benefited from these Signs in the least.

Instead, they have crossed all limits in impertinence and mischief so much so that three individuals Sum Raj, Ichchar Mal, and Bhagat Ram brought out a newspaper from Qadian and named it Shubh Chintak, and made it a point to use it to print abuse and foul language against me. But God had, for many years, repeatedly informed me that the days of the Aryah Samaj were numbered. For example, on page 66, lines 7–8 of my book Tadhkiratush-Shahadatain which was published on 16 October 1903, I recorded the following prophecy which was revealed to me by God Almighty. It runs as follows:

That religion (i.e. Aryah Religion) is as good as dead. Do not be afraid of it. Millions and tens of millions of you will be alive and shall witness the disappearance of this Aryah faith.

Similarly on pages 4–5 of my book Nasim-e-Da‘wat which was published against the Aryas on 28 February 1903, I had prophesied:

All their enthusiasm is solely for show to their people and society. Their hearts are devoid of any regard for God’s majesty. The Aryas of Qadian think that they have escaped from the clutches of the plague. But, will their foul language and insolence go unpunished? Listen! You who are heedless! It is my experience and the experience of those truthful souls who have passed before me that to show disrespect to God’s holy Messengers is not good. God has a punishment in store for every wrongdoing and impertinence.

Again, on pages 21–22 of my book, Qadian kay Aryah aur Hamm, which was published on 20 February 1907, I recorded the following prophecy:

These people have exceeded all limits in denying the Prophets whose truth is resplendent like the sun. God, who so jealously protects the honour of His servants, will certainly deliver His verdict and for a certainty will show some Signs of His might.

Then, on page 54 of the same booklet, Qadian kay Aryah aur Hamm, the following prophecy is recorded in the form of a poem:

There is no trace of shame and decency in their eyes; They have transgressed all limits. This indeed is the extreme limit.

The God we believe in is Most Powerful and Omnipotent, That He may show something [miraculous] from Himself—our supplication being the very same.

The sum and essence of this prophecy was that God would show these people Signs of His power! Again on page 2 of the title page of this book we find the following couplet:

God! My Lord! You make them understand Yourself; Do manifest again a Sign from the heavens!

The sum and essence of this prayer is that another calamity will overtake the Aryas by way of a Sign.

These are the prophecies that were made in regard to the Aryah Samaj. A reasonable person would realize how these prophecies about the Aryah Samaj have so clearly been fulfilled and their unlucky star has made its appearance! For instance, all the active members of the Qadian chapter of the Aryas who managed and looked after their newspaper Shubh Chintak, without exception, succumbed to the plague, as it had been prophesied five years beforehand in my book Nasim-e-Da‘wat that they would die of the plague. Elsewhere, too, most of the so-called leaders of the Aryah Samaj, because of whose social status and position the other Aryas had also become rude, were meted out their deserved punishment. Some were simply expelled from the country by the jurisdiction of this Government.

It is indeed regrettable that these people have expressed such ingratitude in the face of countless favours of the British Government and exposed their rottenness by making rebellious statements against it. In fact, it was but necessary that all these prophecies which were made as many as five years ago about the decline and fall of these people should have been fulfilled. For a certainty, this means the end of the Aryah Samajists and the definitive verdict of God was duly fulfilled. Can a human being make such prophecies beforehand? Hence, a thousand thanks to the Almighty who deserves all glory and praise, for He manifests such magnificent Signs for Islam. [And peace be upon those who follow the guidance].

Today—that is, Sunday, 12 May 1907—when I had written this far, I was shown in a vision someone whose face I cannot recall, but I do remember that he is a bitter enemy of mine who reviles me in his speeches and writings and uses foul language against me. This was followed by the revelation:

The recompense of evil is evil. He has been inflicted with plague.

Meaning that, he will surely suffer from the plague. I am sure that sooner or later you will hear that some such enemy about whom your hearts will testify that he deserved the affliction, as indicated in this revelation, will die of the plague.

If this does not happen, you would be entitled to reject my claim. Thereafter, it was manifested to me that heedlessness, sin, and daring have spread widely in the country and that people will not give up opposition until God manifests His mighty hand.

Thereafter, I received the revelation:

Meaning: The result will be the outbreak of a severe plague in the country. Many Signs will be manifested. The houses of many powerful enemies will be ruined and they will depart from this world. These [ruined] cities will cause people to weep. Those will be the days of Judgment. Progress will take place with powerful Signs. A terrifying Sign.

In other words, one of these Signs will be terrifying. This might refer to the promised earthquake or another heavenly Sign or widespread ruin as the result of the plague resembling Doomsday. Then Allah the Almighty addressed me in the following words.

Meaning: My mercy will adhere to you; Allah will show mercy. We shall demonstrate such abundance of Signs as will make you weary.

Then, on Monday, 13 May 1907, I received the revelation:

Meaning: We shall soon deliver you from the mischief of your enemies and shall make you prevail over them and will honour you in a wonderful manner. The fact of the matter is that those who are commissioned by God are recognized only by the Signs from God Almighty. If God does not settle the matter Himself by His Own hands, mere talk can settle nothing.

THE END
