Beloved, sincere, steadfast, tireless, persevering, and self-sacrificing brothers; I do not think it necessary to encourage you against such fierce attacks. Your strong faith and your belief that every incident related to the Risale-i Nur contains a divine care and mercy is sufficient for your encouragement, we know. Yet, there is only one point I am curious about. Is the entire Risale-i Nur you have obtained only a set, and who is it, I want to understand. Whoever it is, let him not worry. In more important positions, they will achieve victories and earn rewards on his behalf. A set of Risale-i Nur can be provided for him. Also, is there anyone under custody? And who is the teacher assigned to him?
Saniyen: With the decision given by Sabri and Hâfız Ali's opinion for establishing communication, we also accepted the method of communication through Atabey, just like them. Lütfi has a heir named Abdullah Çavuş, and the address will be sent accordingly.
Salisen: Sabri's letter, in which he wrote with joy about the miraculousness of the Qur'an and the Risale-i Nur, made us very happy. Taking the remarkable and attractive "Mu'cizat-ı Kur'ân" written by Hasan Âtıf as the basis, we added other discussions about the points of the Qur'anic miracles to the other essays in the form of supplements; it turned out very well. For example, the Seventeenth Degree of the "Âyetü'lkübrâ" about the Qur'an, the Twentieth Word, and the last verse of the Surah Feth regarding its miracle, important parts from the Fihristen about the "Rumuzat-ı Semaniye," and two points from the Kenzü'l-Arş have been included in these supplements. Just like the supplements of the "Mu'cizat-ı Ahmediye," they have shone brightly. The center of light, Sabri, will surely perfect that beautiful "Mu'cizat-ı Kur'âniye" with them, insha'Allah.
Rabian: The letter from Abdullah Çavuş, the true and very serious heir of the late Lütfi, showed his level of sincerity, devotion, and connection. I always used to mention both Abdullah of İslâmköy and this Abdullah Çavuş together in my prayers. Allah shows that he is worthy of that position. The final, revised part of the Fihristen will be sent to him, insha'Allah. However, it has not been revised as much as he might have thought. Because, the process

2 And indeed, nothing is there but praises Him with His praise, 1 by His name, exalted is He.
Peace be upon you, and the mercy of Allah and His blessings in the number of the dozens of minutes of these three months 3.
Beloved, sincere brothers; First: We congratulate you on the past Night of Mirac and the coming Night of Berat, and we ask for your accepted prayers.
Second: The latter half of the Twenty-fifth Word, the Miraculousness of the Qur'an, remained very concise due to the haste of the calamity. As I previously wrote to you, I had appended some supplements at the end of it. Now, we have found an important piece, twenty years ago, in the Lemeat. It was considered very suitable to include in the copies of the Miraculousness of the Qur'an. I found a copy of the Lemeat brought to me by the brave Tahirî very precious. If there is another copy in that area, you can also write this piece at the end of your copies. Indeed, the Lemeat itself is also a marvel. It was written in prose style, without any interruption, in one go, during the Holy Ramadan, within twenty days. Then we saw that it had taken the form of a flowing prose and a measured composition, like a smooth narrative. This piece is even more remarkable. The heading of that piece in the Lemeat is: "Explanation with permission, the permission of the Qur'an."
Once, in a dream, I saw that I was under the Ağrı Mountain. Suddenly, the mountain exploded, scattering stones like mountains into the world, shaking the world. From this, up to the heading "There are two kinds of perspectives. One is dark, the other is more." If the Lemeat has not reached your hands, we will send you that piece from here.
Third: I will tell you a beautiful, graceful, and elegant incident. In this country, elderly ladies and young ladies, who are like virgins, have shown more selfless attachment to the Risale-i Nur than men. They have taken precious pieces from the old embroidered and beaded wedding attire and used them to cover the covers of the Risale-i Nur's volumes, so that all the books look like they are bound with golden embroidery. The spiritual beauty of the Risale-i Nur, and the elegance of the calligraphy of my brothers such as Hüseyn Tâhirî, Alis, Hasan Âtıf, and Âsım, and the beauty on the covers is also charming.

Just as the books of eloquence (belâğat) contain degrees of eloquence, the eloquence in the Kur'ân-i Hakîm has reached the degree of i'câz (inimitability); no one can reach it. Moreover, in the treatises of the Nineteenth Letter, which is one of the miracles of the Ahmediyye, and the Twenty-Fifth Word, which is a translator of the miracles of the Kur'âniyye, and the Risale-i Nur, which is a kind of tafsir (exegesis) of the Kur'ân, the excellence of eloquence shows a degree of grandeur surpassing the general excellence of books. And from this, it is understood that the miracles of the Kur'âniyye and the Ahmediyye are a kind of honor and that they manifest and appear in these treatises.
SECOND SIGN
The second of the Divine attentions related to the service of the Kur'âniyeh is as follows:
The Almighty, in a manner where I am a person without a pen, a half-illiterate, alone in a foreign land, and deprived of support; He has bestowed upon me brothers who are strong, serious, sincere, selfless, and whose pens are like diamond swords. He placed the heavy Kur'âniyeh duty, which fell heavily on my weak and helpless shoulders, onto those strong shoulders, and by His great mercy, He lightened my burden.
That blessed community, as Hulûsi expressed, is like the users of wireless telegraphy, and as Sabri expressed, like the machines that produce electricity for the Nur factory. Each has their own merits and precious diverse qualities. And again, as Sabri expressed, they are of a kind of hidden harmony. In a similar way, with encouragement, effort, and seriousness, they spread the mysteries of the Kur'âniyeh and the aspects of faith everywhere and reach every place. At this time (a time when the alphabet has changed, there are no printing presses, and everyone is in need of the aspects of faith), and when there are many obstacles and things that can discourage and weaken the spirit, these people, without such obstacles, with great enthusiasm and effort, perform these services. This is directly a miracle of the Kur'ân and a clear Divine attention.
Yes, just as the miracle of wilâyet (spiritual authority) exists, the miracle of sincere intention also exists. The miracle of sincerity also exists. Especially among brothers who are in a circle of love for the sake of Allah, there can be many miracles in serious and sincere mutual support. Indeed, such a community is

And shortly after that date, the most luminous parts of Risaletü'n-Nur, such as the treatise "Mu'cizat-ı Ahmediye (a.s.m.)" and the "Twentieth and Twenty-Fourth Letters," began to appear on the field of dissemination, and at the same time, the treatise "Mu'cizat-ı Kur'âniye," which proves the inimitability of the Qur'an in forty ways, and the two parts of the "Tenth Word" about the resurrection were published in "Forty Two (42)" and had extraordinary announcements in "Forty Six (46)." This is a strong indication that this verse has a special reference to it.
Just as these verses point to the composition and dissemination, so too, the word تَنْزِيلُ الْكِتَابِ (the revelation of the Book) coincides with the name Risaletü'n-Nur (with the letter ن being doubled, there is a very slight difference) and metaphorically looks at it and accepts it. Because the word تَنْزِيلُ الْكِتَابِ (the revelation of the Book) is 951, and from the secret point of view of the three differences, it looks at the rank of Risaletü'n-Nur, which is 948.
Suddenly, it occurred to me that the secret of these three differences is that the rank of Risaletü'n-Nur is third. That is, it is not a revelation and cannot be. Also, generally, it is not inspiration, but perhaps mostly the impressions and inspirations of the Qur'an that come to the heart through the grace and help of the Qur'an. It is remarkable that in the first حٰمۤ of Surah Al-Mu'min, the verse تَنْزِيلُ الْكِتَابِ مِنَ اللّٰهِ الْعَزِيزِ الْعَلِيمِ (the revelation of the Book from the Almighty, All-Knowing) has a cipher rank of 1370, which looks toward some important verses. Perhaps in fifteen to twenty years, another light of the Qur'an will appear, or perhaps the Resâili'n-Nur will have a special expansion and new revelations. Since I do not know, I cannot open that door.
TWENTY-FIFTH VERSE: 2 حٰمۤ - تَنْزِيلٌ مِنَ الرَّحْمٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ (This is a sacred verse). The metaphorical meaning of this verse has a very strong connection with the Resâili'n-Nur. One aspect is that the work of Risaletü'n-Nur and his disciples is based on four principles.

Beloved, sincere brothers; First: Infinite thanks be to the Almighty, we received with great joy five copies of Asa from the Musa treatise and the Sikke-i Gaybiye treatise, which had been detained in the court for three years. May the Almighty be forever pleased with you. Amen.
Second: The errors corrected in the Zülfikar copy given by the court have not been corrected in this copy. In the fourth zeyl of the Mu'cizat al-Kur'aniyya, on the one hundred and first page, the eighth line, "hem lâm" is an error. It should be "hem lâ". Because in the Qur'an, lâm occurs thirty thousand times, and lâ occurs nineteen thousand times.
Third: A person with the new script is asking a question in a letter written to the Isparta Sümerbank Factory. On my behalf, you may recommend the Kader treatise to him. I am both unwell and unable to write personal letters. Also, Zubeyir has gone to Ankara. Moreover, I do not know the new script either. I have sent you the information.
Fourth: I have also sent fifty pounds for my expenses with the driver Abdurrahman. The books you sent me and the remaining debt of the Collected Sayings should be deducted from my debt. It was very urgent. I send many greetings to all.

Beloved, sincere, loyal, pure, and devoted brothers; I have a few brief words to say about my four or five brothers.
First: We have seen the third offering of my dear brother Hacı Hâfız, the guide, founder, and administrator of the Medrese-i Nuriye. Even when he was in Barla, the miraculous and abundant sweetness of the morsels, and the two and a half kilograms of honey that sweetened the Risale-i Nuriye in Isparta, caused a wonderful incident. This third time as well, he has sent a gift representing a thousand blessed and innocent memories and compliments, a gift that cannot be broken. For the sake of those thousand memories, I have broken the rule of a sixty-year-old principle of life.
Second: After he passed away, I had the chance to see the extraordinary and fortunate Mu’cizat-ı Kur’âniye written by Âtıf Hasan. If it were in my power, I would have paid a lira for each page. Insha'Allah, with that copy, thousands of people will benefit and it will become a source of life for his eternal life. It is the third of Hüseyn, and the brave Tahir.
Third: The sincere and wise dream and consistent interpretation of Kâtip Osman, an old, important, and hardworking student of the Risale-i Nur, made them joyful and us as well. In his letter, he mentions that he is thinking of Hüseyn, Rushd, Hâfız Ali, Zühdü Bedevî, Nuri and Nur factory owner, the Tahir family, the blessed group, the Medrese-i Nuriye, the elderly and innocent children, and everyone. We also greet them one by one and pray for their success and safety.
In this climate as well, perhaps in many places, your activities have inspired enthusiasm and caused the Risale-i Nur to be considered more, making the people of this world think and attract attention. Some small misunderstandings also arise from this. As always, caution is necessary. The fact that Hazrat Imam Ali (Radıyallahü Anh) said "secretly illuminated" twice indicates that the Risale-i Nur is secretly illuminating and transforming under the veil. Do not pay attention to or look at temporary winds as much as possible. After all, sincere unity and

Beloved, sincere brothers; there is a matter that I have long forgotten to mention to you. It is this: Most of the verses in the treatise "Mu'cizat-ı Kur'aniye" are verses that have either been criticized by the deniers, or have been questioned by scholars, or have been subjected to the whispers and doubts of jinn and human devils.
Indeed, the Twenty-Fifth Statement has explained the truths and subtleties of these verses in such a way that the points the deniers and scholars thought were flaws have been proven, through scientific principles, to be the sources of eloquence and the perfection of the Qur'anic rhetoric. Absolute answers have been given without mentioning the doubts of those people, in order not to cause unease.
Only in the First Station of the Twentieth Statement, in three or four verses such as "2 And the mountains as pegs 1 And the sun runs," have their doubts been mentioned.
Moreover, although the treatise "Mu'cizat-ı Kur'aniye" is very concise and was written in haste, it has been expressed in a scholarly, deep, and powerful style in terms of rhetoric and the sciences of Arabic. Although not everyone who is attentive can fully understand and benefit from each topic, everyone has an important share in that garden. Because it was composed in great haste and under difficult circumstances, there are some flaws in expression and wording, but it has explained the truths of many important scientific issues.

Postscript
In the final investigation decision of the inquiry court, it was stated behind the scenes: "I saw written that the legal body had decided four months ago to officially prohibit the distribution and collection of the book 'Mu'jizat-ı Kur'aniye,' which includes only the essay 'Yirmi Beşinci Söz,' on the grounds that the interpretation of three verses regarding civilization does not conform to the current civil law."
In response: "Mu'jizat-ı Kur'aniye" is now in Zulfikar. In Zulfikar, which has nearly four hundred pages, only two pages contain the interpretation of three verses from my three old essays, which were written thirty years ago in an unquestionable style to respond to the criticisms of civilization against the Qur'an. One is the verse about women's modesty, the second is about inheritance,
1 "So the mother's share is one sixth," and the third is again about inheritance,
2 "And for the male is the equivalent of the share of two females." I explained the wisdom behind these truths in a way that would obligate philosophers, and I wrote these two pages twenty years ago and other essays thirty years ago. Therefore, it is our legal right to have these two pages removed from Zulfikar and our book returned to us, rather than banning the entire four-hundred-page Zulfikar as if it were written today. Just as if a couple of harmful words are found in a letter, those words are removed and permission is given to publish the rest. From this perspective, we request our right from your fair court.
Since one month ago, when I was given the forty-page indictment, no one could come to me and read it to me, today, on June 11, they read the new indictment to me. I listened and saw that my objection letter written two months ago, and also my objection letter and postscript written about a month ago, had been submitted both to the six authorities in Ankara and to your court. This objection letter completely cuts through and rejects that indictment. I see no need to write another objection letter against the indictment. I only mention a couple of points to remind the court of the indictment:
