Sayyed Sahib from Arabia wrote me a lengthy correspondence abounding in verses of Qasidah and passages of prose written in praise and laudation. The following is an excerpt of his letter:
Dear Mirza Ghulam Ahmad
My salutations to you, who are wise, enlightened, learned, the star of the East, a Messenger of the Lord and the recipient of His revelation, a pillar in the eternal sultanate of Islam and the King of the Muslims.
Your excellences are like the stars that illuminate the night sky. They are there for all to see. You are an endless ocean of generosity and munificence and a clear fountain of knowledge and learning.
I may publish all the verses of the Qasidah and the full letter written by this Arab scholar at a later date. This much should suffice for now.
