Tenth: After the arrival of Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him), especially on the night of his birth, there was an increase in the falling of stars1, which, as we have conclusively proven with clear evidence in the Fifteenth Statement, the silence of these stars is a sign and indication that the jinn and devils have been cut off from hidden knowledge. Indeed, since the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) came to the world through revelation, it was necessary to stop the half-truths and lies of the soothsayers and those who claim to know hidden things, as well as the jinn, so that they would not cast doubt upon revelation or imitate it. Yes, before the revelation of the Qur’an, there were many soothsayers. After the Qur’an was revealed, it put an end to their influence. In fact, many soothsayers became believers, because they could no longer find their informants from among the jinn. Thus, the Qur’an had already ended their influence. Just as there were soothsayers in ancient times, now in Europe, a kind of soothsaying has again emerged in the form of mediums among spiritualists. Whatever the case may be... In short: Before the prophethood of Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him), many incidents and many individuals confirmed and affirmed his prophethood. Indeed, a being who would become the leader of the world in spirit, who would change the spiritual form of the world, who would make the world a garden for the hereafter, who would announce the values of the world's creatures, who would show the path to eternal happiness for jinn and humans, who would save the transient jinn and humans from eternal death, who would reveal the hidden wisdom and mysteries and enigmas of the universe, who would understand and convey the purposes of the Creator of the universe, and who would recognize the Creator and introduce Him to all people—such a being, it is certain that before his arrival, every kind, every group, would love and await his coming, welcome him with joy, and applaud him. And if the Creator informs about him, he will inform as well. Just as we have seen in previous signs and examples, every kind of creation shows his miracles, and with the language of miracles, they confirm his prophethood.

The Twenty-Eighth Point of the Twenty-Eighth Letter of Lema In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. They do not listen to the highest assembly, and they are driven away from every side—rebuffed, and for them is a punishment that will stay, except for one who steals a glance and is pursued by a piercing flame. 1 And indeed, We have adorned the lower heaven with lamps, and made them as projectiles for the devils. 2 The important point of such verses will be explained in relation to a criticism of the people of misguidance. Namely: The spies of jinn and devils, by eavesdropping on the news of the heavens and bringing back hidden information, are said to have informed about unseen matters, like fortune-tellers, materialists, and some spiritualists. At the beginning of the revelation of the divine message, in order to prevent doubt about the revelation, the mentioned verses indicate that their constant espionage was more strongly discouraged and prevented at that time with warnings and prohibitions. Question: From such verses, it seems to be understood that in order to obtain information about a particular or even personal unseen event, devils are sent as spies to the distant realm of the heavens, and in every part of that vast realm, it is as if that particular event is being discussed. Any devil who enters any place will hear and bring back the information, albeit incomplete. However, reason and wisdom do not accept this meaning.

Peace be upon you and the mercy of Allah and His blessings forever, always, by His name, exalted is He. Beloved, sincere brothers; First of all: It has certainly become evident with many signs and certain events that the enemies of Nur and the seekers of Nur have many plans to find a weak vein among some of the close disciples of Nur and to make them abandon or weaken their service to Nur. We mention one or two examples for the sake of warning: First example: Some individuals, in order to divert the attention and thoughts of some of our beloved brothers who have a strong connection with Nur, or to occupy them with a pleasurable and spiritual illusion and weaken their religious service, are engaging them in matters such as "spiritism," communicating with the dead under the name of conversation, even pretending to speak with some great saints or even prophets. This issue, which was called "divination" in ancient times and is now called "mediumship," is being used to occupy some of our brothers. However, since this matter comes from philosophy and foreign sources, it can cause great harm to the people of faith. Moreover, it is the source of many deceptive practices, and even if there is some truth in it, it is mixed with ten lies. Because there is no criterion or standard to distinguish truth from falsehood, the jinn who assist the devils and the devils themselves can, through this means, harm both the heart of the person involved and Islam. Because, under the name of spirituality, they provide information that contradicts Islamic truths and the general creed. These devils, pretending to be pure spirits, may even give themselves the names of great saints and try to harm Islam with statements that contradict its principles. They can alter the truth and completely deceive the innocent. For example, just as the sun appears in a small piece of glass with its light, heat, and shape. But if that small piece of glass were to speak and say, "My light is conquering the world. My heat is warming everything. And I am a million times larger than the Earth," how much it contradicts the truth would be clear.

Question: If you say, "Why does the Prophet Jesus, peace be upon him, bring more glad tidings than any other prophet; others only bring news, and the number of glad tidings is small?" Answer: Because the Prophet Muhammad, peace and blessings be upon him, has a superior sharia that not only saves Jesus, peace be upon him, from the terrible denial and terrible accusations of the Jews and the terrible corruption of his religion, but also provides a sharia that is easy, comprehensive, and complete in rulings, which contrasts with the difficult and narrow sharia of the ignorant Israelites, and which fills the deficiencies of the Israelite sharia. That is why he often brings the glad tidings that "The Lord of the world is coming." Indeed, in the Torah, the Gospel, the Psalms, and other sacred books of the prophets, there are many references and verses about a prophet who will come in the latter days—some examples of which we have shown. Moreover, these books repeatedly mention him in many forms. Now, considering all these sacred books, with such great emphasis and repeated verses, who else could the Prophet of the Last Days be, except the Prophet Muhammad, peace and blessings be upon him? SECOND PART: The purpose of the signs and evidence of prophethood is this: Before the advent of the Ahmadiyya movement, in the time of corruption, the prophets and some of the righteous and God-knowing people of that time foretold the coming of the Noble Messenger, peace and blessings be upon him, and spread their warnings. They left their poems for future generations. There are many of them. We will mention some of the well-known and widely accepted ones according to the narration and acceptance of historians and scholars.

Although the subjects and the nation are one, each government relates to that subject in its own privileged way. The dealings of these governments, which are very distant from each other, come into contact with one another, approach each other in every household, and share common interests in every individual. Particular matters are seen within a particular circle at the point of contact. Otherwise, each particular matter is not taken from the universal circle. However, when these particular matters are mentioned, they are expressed as if they are taken from the universal circle, directly because of the law of the universal circle, and they are given the form of a matter that is discussed within that circle. Indeed, these two representations are like spiritual telephones that reach the hearts of people on Earth, even though the celestial kingdom is very far from the Earth in terms of capital and center. The celestial world does not look only at the physical world; perhaps because it assumes the world of spirits and the world of angels, in a certain way, it has encompassed the world of testimony under a veil. Even Paradise, which is from the eternal and the abode of permanence, despite its immeasurable distance, has spread and extended in a luminous form everywhere under the veil of testimony, within that circle of governance. With the wisdom and power of the All-Wise, Almighty Allah, just as the centers of the feelings He placed in the head of man are separate, yet each one governs the entire body and the entire physical form and can include it within its circle of governance. Similarly, this great being, the universe, also includes thousands of worlds, like interwoven and overlapping circles. In them, the general and particular, the specific and the grand aspects of events and circumstances become the subject of attention. That is, the parts are seen in particular and close places, while the general and grand ones are seen in general and high positions. But sometimes a particular and specific event can conquer a great world. No matter where you listen, that event is heard. And sometimes great displays are made not against the enemy's strength, but perhaps for the sake of showing grandeur.

Secondly, he caused such amazement and wonder in the poets and orators, those who recite eloquent speeches and recite beautiful poetry, that they bit their fingers in despair. He caused them to descend their most beautiful poems written in gold and the famous Muallaqat of the seven, which were hung on the walls of the Kaaba as a matter of pride, and reduced their status. He also silenced the prophets and magicians who claimed to know the unseen. He caused them to forget their knowledge of the unseen. He made them lose their jinn. He imposed a curse upon the practice of prophecy. He also freed those who were aware of the events of the previous nations and the affairs of the world from falsehood and lies, and taught them the true past events and the luminous events of the world. Thus, these four groups, out of complete amazement and reverence for the Qur'an, knelt before it and became its disciples. None of them ever dared to challenge even a single chapter of it. If one were to ask: "How do we know that no one challenged it and that it is not challengeable?" The answer would be: If it were possible to challenge, certainly someone would have attempted it. Because there was a need for challenge. For their religions, their possessions, their lives, and their families were in danger; if they had challenged it, they would have been saved. If it were possible to challenge, they certainly would have done so. If they had challenged it, the supporters of the challenge would have been numerous, and they would have certainly announced it to everyone (just as those who opposed Islam announced everything). If they had announced it and challenged it, it would certainly have been recorded in a prominent way in the histories and books. Here, all the histories and books are present; in none of them, except for a few paragraphs of the fabrications of Musaylimah, is there any mention.

Although the Garden is distant and is from the eternal world, yet it is seen in the nearest places and sometimes fruits are obtained from it. As understood from the first two symbolic representations, this world of transience and the world of witness is like a veil for the world of the unseen and the eternal abode. Although the central center of the Garden is far away, it is possible for it to be seen everywhere through the symbolic representation of the world of prototypes. Similarly, through the level of faith of the truly sincere, in this world of transience (without error in representation), the Garden may have a kind of territories and circles. And through the heart's telephone, communication with the high spirits is possible, and gifts may arrive. But the fact that an all-encompassing circle is occupied by a partial, personal event, such as the statement in the interpretations that devils climb up to the heavens to bring hidden news to the prophets and bring half-baked and incorrect news, must have a truth that is this: It is not the case that they go up to the capital of the heavenly kingdom to obtain those partial news. Perhaps the heavenly kingdom, which extends even to the air, has certain positions that can be considered like outposts (without error in metaphor), where these positions are more connected with the world of the earth. For partial events, they eavesdrop from those partial positions. Indeed, the human heart is one of those positions, where the angel of inspiration and the particular devil struggle with each other in that position. And the truths of faith, the Quranic truths, and the events of Muhammad (peace be upon him), although they are partial, are considered the most important and most comprehensive events. Just as the decrees of the universe are published in the spiritual circles of the most comprehensive circle, the Throne of the Almighty and the circle of the heavens (without error in representation), they are discussed in every corner. Therefore, along with this explanation, from the heart of Muhammad (peace be upon him) up to the circle of the Throne, since there is no possibility of interference from any direction, the only solution for the devils is to listen to the heavens. Thus, the revelation of the Quran and the prophethood of Ahmad (peace be upon him) show how high a level of truth they are, and that there is no contradiction or error or

For example, the event of the Prophethood (peace and blessings be upon him) and the sacred event of the revelation of the Qur'an, being the most important event in the entire celestial kingdom, even in every corner of that kingdom, the great celestial spheres, which are very distant and very high, are shown and expressed as having guards stationed in their constellations, repelling and driving away the spying devils by shooting arrows from stars, and as a divine sign announcing the degree of majesty, the royal grandeur, and the absolute truth of the Qur'anic revelation, at that time and in that era, it was said that stars were falling and being thrown. The Qur'an, the Wonder of Speech, also translates and announces this cosmic declaration and points to that celestial sign. Indeed, to confront the spying devils, which can be carried by the breath of angels, with such a great celestial sign, and to engage them in battle with the angels, is certainly to demonstrate the majesty of the royal authority of the Qur'anic revelation. Moreover, this majestic Qur'anic statement and the grand celestial signs are not to indicate that the jinn and devils have the power or defense to challenge and defend the celestial realm, but rather to indicate that along the long path from the heart of the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) to the celestial world and up to the mighty Throne, there is no place where jinn or devils can interfere. The Qur'anic revelation is a truth in the vast heavens, a matter of general concern for all the angels. To touch this truth, devils are compelled to ascend to the heavens, but they fail in everything and are driven back. This demonstrates that the revelation coming to the heart of the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him), the presence of Gabriel to the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him), and the hidden truths seen by the gaze of the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) are solid and firm, without any room for doubt. The Qur'an, the Wonder of Speech, miraculously conveys this news.

Also, according to the narration of the verse, some of the people of prophecy and the people of excellence receive the fruits of the Garden above the heavens as if they are taken from a nearby place, and sometimes they are said to observe the Garden from close by. Ultimately, the issue of distance and ultimately the issue of closeness is such that it cannot be comprehended by the mind of this age. Moreover, the affairs of an individual person being the subject of discussion in the present heavens, which are comprehensive and vast, does not conform to the wisdom of the very intelligent and wise management of the universe. However, these three matters are considered among the Islamic truths. The answer: Firstly: In a treatise titled "The Fifteenth Statement," with seven definite premises titled "The Seven Steps," "And indeed, We have adorned the lower heaven with lamps and made them as projectiles against the devils," the verse's indication of stars and the proof of the devils' surveillance from the heavens is so clearly demonstrated that even the most stubborn materialist is convinced, silenced, and made to accept. Secondly: To bring these three Islamic truths, which are thought to be distant, closer to minds of limited understanding, we will indicate them through an analogy. For example, suppose a government has its military department in the east of the country, its judicial department in the west, its education department in the north, its religious department in the south, and its civil administration in the center; through telephones, telegraphs, and radio, in a very organized manner, each department observes and receives news about the matters it is responsible for. Thus, in effect, the entire country, although it is a judicial department, becomes a military department and a civil administration department, as well as a religious department. Also, for example, in governments with multiple states and separate capitals, it sometimes happens that, due to colonies, privileges, or trade relations, different sovereignties exist within a single country.
