In the end, Bediüzzaman makes a strong defense. Eventually, the court, in agreement, issues the acquittal decision dated 16.6.1364 and numbered 199/136. It grants full freedom to all one hundred and thirty pieces of the Risale-i Nur Collection and returns them completely to their owners. The acquittal decision is confirmed by the First Criminal Appeals Chamber with a notice dated 30.12.1364, and the case of the Risale-i Nur becomes a legally established right.
Bediüzzaman Said Nursî and some of his students are released after spending nine months in prison following the acquittal decision. However, they poison Said Nursî Hazreti in the prison; he faces a danger of death. Although he is saved by the care of Allah, he is subjected to oppression, torture, and betrayal that no one in history has ever experienced. Just as in all the courts he entered under the instigation of secret godless hypocrites, Bediüzzaman loudly proclaims truth and reality in this court, which was convened with a plan for his execution, without fear and disregarding death.
Master Bediüzzaman composed the Treatise on the Fruit while imprisoned in Denizli. This treatise was later published at the beginning of the Asâ-yı Musa collection. He composed the Treatise on the Fruit in two Friday days. All the Nur Students and other prisoners in the prison wrote the Treatise on the Fruit and studied its truths. Paper was not allowed into the prison. The work was secretly written. Indeed, they wrote it on matchboxes and worked under such conditions... FOOTNOTE

Has Re'fet had surgery? How is he? I am concerned. Many have prayed for him. The Tahirî hero left a copy of the Asâ-yı Mûsâ Mecmuas, written by the noble Hâtice, daughter of the hero Ahmed, in Istanbul, entrusted to someone. Let that copy not be lost, for it encourages the ladies to Nurism. If it is left unclaimed and no longer needed, it should be sent to me.
I congratulate you on your Ramadan, your Laylat al-Qadr, and your Eid. While I was in Kastamonu, every day during my prayers and spiritual gains, the loyal disciples of Nur, such as Âsiye, Ulviye, Lütfiye, Zehra, Şerife, Hâcer, Necmiye, Nimet, and Aliye, were spiritually present with me to share in these moments; and so it is now.
I do not forget you. In fact, recently I suddenly missed Ulviye and Lütfiye. The next day, I received both of their letters and gifts; this was a sign of their loyalty. Although I have always been in the habit of not accepting gifts, tonight on Laylat al-Qadr, I accepted your robes and vests together with Âsiye, on behalf of all the Nur disciples in Kastamonu. However, to remain consistent with my principles, in exchange for these, Lütfiye and Ulviye may take whatever they wish from my pamphlets in Emin; or, on my account, Mehmed Feyzi and his friends may write whatever they like for them.
The innocent children of these nurses who have come to me many times are included in the circle of innocent disciples of Nur, and I often remember them.

Beloved, sincere brothers, my perfect consolations and heirs in this terrible century; the fact that your extraordinary efforts and labors have transformed Isparta and its surroundings into a vast Medresetü’z-Zehra and a Câmiü’l-Ezher is also evidenced by the fact that this time you have sent to this half-ignorant brother of yours more than twenty perfect copies of the Asâ-yı Mûsâ collection, copies that have even astonished the printers. May the Most Merciful of the Merciful bestow upon you, the writers, and the helpers, a thousand mercies for each letter, and grant them thousands of fruits of Paradise, and record a hundred good deeds in their books of deeds. Âmin. Âmin. Âmin.
I looked at them and it occurred to my heart: Do these heroes not have a reward now?
Suddenly it was pointed out: They are first reading completely for themselves a powerful lesson of faith that silences the sophists and brings people to faith, and thus they are acquiring a spiritual treasure.
Moreover, their copies will save the faith of many or bring them to faith. There is a hadith that says, “If one man comes to faith with you, it is better than a whole desert full of red sheep.” 1 Also, they are witnessing with these blessed pens the sacred services of the swords of the great Muslim warriors of old. Surely the future will greatly praise them and the Nurites.
Secondly: It would be appropriate to write this coming and marked paragraph at the beginning of the Asâ-yı Mûsâ collection. Those who wish may also write the beginning part of this letter together.
Imam Ali Radıyallahü Anh, in his Celcelutiye, has announced with a very strong and almost prophetic style the Risale-i Nur and its important treatises with the same number, and the Twenty-Eighth Lem’a and the Eighth Şuâ have fully proven this. Imam Ali Radıyallahü Anh announced the last treatise of the Risale-i Nur in Celcelutiye with the phrase: "And the name of the staff of Moses by which the darkness was dispelled." We had previously thought that the Âyetü’l-Kübrâ was the last. But now, in the sixtieth-fourth year, the completion of the Risale-i Nur has been composed, and this entire Alevi sentence, that is, the staff of Moses which dispels darkness, (Al

In the Name of Allah, the Most High, 1
Beloved, sincere brothers; I congratulate and rejoice both the Risale-i Nur, you, and myself with the precious tidings of Hüsrev, Hıfzı, and Bartınlı Seyyid. Indeed, this year, the pilgrims to Hajj, in the Holy Mecca, have published the powerful collections of Nur in Arabic and Hindi translations by great scholars, and in the Holy Medina, they have been so accepted that the Ravza-i Mutahharan has been placed on the tomb of Saadet. Hajj Seyyid, with his own eyes, saw the Asâ-yı Mûsâ collection on the tomb of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). Thus, it has been accepted in the manner of the Prophet and has entered the circle of the pleasure of the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him). And as we have intended, and as we said to the pilgrims departing from here, the Lights have visited those blessed places on our behalf. Praise be to Allah, the brave of Nur have published these collections with corrections, and one of the many benefits is that they have freed me from the duty and worry of correction, and they have become a hundred correctors in terms of being a perfect model for other handwritten copies. May the Most Merciful and Most Compassionate write a thousand good deeds in their good deeds register for each letter of these collections. Ameen, ameen, ameen.

A joyful and meaningful dream that has been interpreted
Ali, who serves me, came and said: "I saw in a dream that you kissed the hand of the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) together with Hüsrev." Suddenly, I received a letter saying that the pilgrims saw the Asâ-yı Mûsâ collection written in Hüsrev's handwriting on the tomb of the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him). Thus, it means that through Hüsrev's pen, I kissed the spiritual hand of the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) on my behalf and was blessed with the pleasure of the Prophet.

Dear sincere brothers; First: We have written into the Appendix in the name of all the innocent and heroic souls of Sava, this beautiful and pure paragraph of Ahmed, one of the innocent ones of the Nuriye Medrese. Praise be to God, it showed that Hacı Hafız Mehmed has an exactly similar precious guardian.
Second: In Safranbolu, one of the important disciples of Nur, Hıfzı, has two innocent young victims, one ten years old and the other eight years old, who are writing the collection of Asâ-yı Mûsâ and are about to finish it. These innocent ones wrote me a letter, which made me very happy.
Third: One of the reasons for the hardships I have endured this winter is the absolute tyranny of the Salonik people, who have isolated me from everyone, so that I might not help to break the tyranny and the anarchist factions. The Risale-i Nur is speaking in my place for thousands, breaking disbelief and apostasy, and destroying anarchy.

My brothers; do not be distressed. Nor should you worry. Help me only by praying. Because for a few days now, my left arm has been very painful, disturbing me at night. Since I do not allow anyone to stay with me, I can manage the necessary tasks in the room with difficulty. I believe it is a branch of the chronic illness I have had since long ago, and the local climate's harsh material conditions and winter, along with the unjust assumptions and pressures of those merciless ones, and their spiritual winter, affect my veins. I suffered as if struck by half a descent of pain. But praise be to God, your accepted prayers have transformed that danger into a mild form. God willing, that form will also pass; its great beneficial effect will remain in place.
My brothers, according to Salahaddin's letter, even in that region, the collection of Asa-yi Musa is very active, making progress. So it is fulfilling that important Nuri mission there. A hundred praises to God, and a hundred wonderful things and blessings to those who write!
