The Second Station of the Twenty-Second Word
In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.
Allah is the Creator of everything, and He is the Guardian over all things. To Him belong the keys of the heavens and the earth. Glory be to Him who has dominion over all things, and to Him you will be returned. And there is nothing except that We have a storehouse for it, and We do not reveal it except by a known decree. There is no moving creature but He has hold of its forelock. Indeed, my Lord is on a straight path.
Preface
In the treatise "Katre," concerning the fundamental pillar of faith in Allah, we have generally stated that each of these existing things testifies and points to the necessity of Allah's existence and His oneness in fifty-five languages. In the treatise "Nokta," we have mentioned four comprehensive proofs, each of which is as strong as a thousand proofs, from the signs of the necessity and oneness of Allah. And in about twelve Arabic treatises, we have mentioned hundreds of absolute proofs demonstrating the necessity of Allah's existence and His oneness. Therefore, we will not now delve deeply into them. We will only attempt to demonstrate the Twelve Points that I generally wrote in the Arabic Risaletu'n-Nur, through the sun of faith in Allah.

Beloved brothers; This Nuri Order has a very great spiritual excellence belonging to me personally. Now the time has come to declare it.
Twenty-three years ago, when the old Said was transformed into the new Said, I searched for the secret of "a single hour of contemplation is better than a year of worship," because he had gone into the profession of contemplation. Every one or two years, that secret would manifest in a treatise, either in Arabic or Turkish, changing its form. From the Arabic Katre Treatise up to the Âyetü'l-Kübrâ Treatise, that truth continued, changing its forms until it entered the eternal form of the Nuri Order of Hizbü'l-Ekber. For twenty-three years now, whenever I have felt pressed and my mind and heart have become weary and tired, I have read a part of this order contemplatively, and that distress and weariness and fatigue have been dispelled. Indeed, without exception, every night, when I have felt tired and weary from four or five hours of preoccupation near dawn, reading one sixth of this order has removed all fatigue and weariness, and this has happened countless times. Because of this important truth, I am now stating a matter related to the people of the madrasa and the teachers at this time.
Namely: Since ancient times, in most places, the madrasa faction has turned to the tekke faction, that is, they have shown initiative and sought the fruits of wilayat (sainthood) from them. They have searched for the limbs of faith and the aspects of truth in their shops. Even a great scholar of the madrasa would kiss the hand of a small dervish of the tekke and become his disciple. They have sought the spring of the water of life in the tekke. Yet the Risale-i Nur, with the spiritual miracle of the Qur'an, the Mu'jizat al-Bayan, has revealed and shown that within the madrasa there is a shorter path to the aspects of truth, a purer and more pure spring of the water of life in the sciences of faith, and that in the field of action, worship, and the path, there exists a higher, sweeter, and stronger path of wilayat knowledge in the truths of faith and in the science of kalam of the Ahl al-Sunna. It is now in the open.
Therefore, it is necessary and essential that the scholars of the madrasa faction, more than anyone else, should eagerly and enthusiastically run to the Risale-i Nur with the utmost zeal and fervor. Unfortunately, the madrasa

Regarding the Miracles of the Prophets (peace be upon them)
NOTICE: The issue of miracles is a result that follows the principles of the pillars of faith. It is a light that derives support from the lights of the pillars of faith. Naturally, it is not directly proven against the godless and deniers who do not accept the pillars of faith. Because, one does not speak of miracles to those who do not know Allah, do not recognize the Prophet, do not accept the angels, or deny the creation of the heavens; first, it is necessary to prove those pillars. Therefore, we will address a believer who is tempted and doubtful about miracles, and occasionally, considering the denier who is in the position of denial, we will speak against him. In some Words, certain aspects of the truth of miracles have been mentioned. Due to the insistence of my brothers, I have sought the grace of Allah to combine those aspects with the original truth and to make a single ceremony of the perfections of the Ahmediyya (peace be upon them).

The Thirty-Second Word
This Word is in Three Stages
It is a commentary explaining the Eighth Lemma of the Twenty-Second Word.
It is an interpretation of the first language from the fifty-five languages that have testified to the oneness of God, to which reference has been made in the treatise of Katre, and it is a truth clothed in the garb of representation from the many truths of the verse: "If there were in them gods besides Allah, they would have been ruined."
