Meaning that, Allah, Lord of Honour and Glory says: ‘Who is more unjust than he who forges a lie against Allah or gives the lie to His Signs and manifestations?
It is known to everyone that some twenty-six years have passed since my claim that I have been appointed by God Almighty and have the honour of converse with Him. During this period, all my opponents made every effort to destroy my Jama‘at. They took me before the authorities too, but I remained safe from all their attacks. It is surprising that despite facing hundreds of failures on their part to eradicate me, my enemies have still not understood that I am supported by a Hidden Hand that saves me from them.
They call me a liar, the Antichrist, and an impostor, but they do not answer the question as to which impostor has ever existed in the world whom God saved from the dangerous attacks of his enemies for as long as twenty-six years, to the extent that by His special grace He kept him safe for a quarter of this century, granted him success upon success, caused him to grow from one to having hundreds of thousands of followers, and caused all his enemies to be ineffectual, and we have no knowledge of what progress the future holds. Which impostor has there ever been in the world against whom, at the time of the mubahalah, every believer fell prey to death or some other kind of chastisement? Which liar has there been for whose sake, and in accordance with whose prophecy, there were solar and lunar eclipses in Ramadan and the earth was hit by global plague? Is any sign found of some other Mahdi who had prophesied fifteen years before the actual occurrence of the lunar and solar eclipses, or had warned as many as three times— first, twenty-six years before, then twelve years before, and then three years before the occurrence—that the plague would spread in this country?
The purpose of writing these lines is that I have sufficiently incorporated in my book Haqiqatul-Wahi all kinds of evidence in support of my claim. Although my health did not allow me to undertake such strenuous effort during these days owing to suffering numerous illnesses and repeated bouts of various ailments and physical weakness, I undertook all this work solely for the good of mankind. I, therefore, appeal in the name of God to all the distinguished scholars, elders, and those who can read this book from among my people that if this book reaches them they should study it closely from beginning to end. Again, I appeal to them in the name of the Almighty, the One without associate, in whose hand rests the life of everyone, that they should— even at the cost of their time and engagements—closely study this book from end to end. Yet again, for the third time, I appeal to them in the name of the Honourable God, who punishes those who fail to pay heed to the oaths in His name, that if they receive this book and can read it, be they the clerics or religious elders, they must study it at least once from beginning to end. To some of these people, I shall—God willing—personally send a copy of this book. As for others, I promise that if they write to me stating under oath that they are unable to pay the price of the book, I will send them a copy provided the book is available and I can afford to send it, under the condition that they should write to me stating under oath that they will surely read the book from beginning to end and that they are unable to buy it. I further pray that anyone who happens to receive this book, but is heedless of the oath in the name of God, and looking down upon such an oath does not read it from start to finish, or only partially reads it, yet persists in using foul language, may God Almighty destroy and disgrace such persons in this world and the Hereafter. Amin.
But the person who reads this book from start to finish and understands it well, his case rests with God. I now conclude this announcement. 
[And peace be upon those who follow the guidance].
