2 And indeed, nothing is there but praises Him with His praise, 1 by His name, the Most High.
Peace be upon you, and the mercy of Allah and His blessings. 3
My dear brother Mustafa Effendi; I have come to a conviction through certain signs and the good testimony of some people that you too can be a serious student and sincere brother of the hereafter, like Mu'in al-Din Bekir Effendi. Moreover, your late father, Hajji Said Effendi, has been included in the chain of prayer for a long time.
In return for this very precious gift of Zamzam water and the sacred soil of the Noble Medina, I am presenting the Thirty-First Word, a very precious and highly trusted text among the people of faith, which has a profound effect even on those who are astray, and a treatise on miracles and the removal of doubts, and the Thirty-Second Word, which is unique and very famous among the seekers of truth and has three luminous stations concerning the unity of God, the knowledge of God, and the love of God. If you find a good calligrapher and have them write it for you (yourself), it would be very good. However, attention should be paid to the correction. It should be proofread once or twice with the help of my brother Sayyid Shefik. Then Bekir Effendi should take it and have it written for himself and his father-in-law. If you cannot find a good calligrapher, then keep the original and give it to someone like Bekir Effendi or Mehmed Effendi or Hafiz Hidayet Effendi, whom you consider worthy and appropriate, on the condition that you read it together with them a few times, and have them write it.
I have heard that permission has been granted to print in Arabic using the old script at the Evkaf Press. If Allah's mercy allows, and official permission is granted in Turkish using the old script, then Bekir Effendi should quickly print these two treatises under the supervision of Sayyid Shefik, making sure to pay great attention to the correction. You are not obliged to bear the printing cost yourself. Because we spent eighty banknotes on the "Haşir Sözü" and earned three hundred. These are not goods that cannot be sold. Muslim souls needed these like food. If there are about two hundred subscribers, then printing one of them can raise the price and also allow for

Because, as it is expressed at the beginning of the sûre-i وَالذَّارِيَاتِ, the movements of the winds, which are considered random and disorganized, are shown to be very wise and purposeful, carrying out the divine orders of lordship throughout the environment. Similarly, the Risale-i Zerrat also proves with very strong and conclusive evidence that the movements of the particles, which are considered random and disorganized by materialists, are indeed very wise and that these particles perform their duties in an organized manner.
Also, the Risale-i Mi'rac, which is named and ranked as "The Thirty-First Statement," proves the Mi'rac-ı Muhammedî (the Ascension of the Prophet Muhammad, peace and blessings be upon him) in a very reasonable and conclusive manner through rational evidence. Hazrat Imam Ali (r.a.) refers to this treatise in a style close to sarahat (clear indication) by mentioning the beginning of the sûre-i 1 وَالنَّجْمِ اِذَا هَوٰى, which starts with the verse وَالنَّجْمِ اِذَا هَوٰى. By omitting the sûre-i وَالطُّورِ and mentioning the sûre-i وَالنَّجْمِ after the sûre-i وَالذَّارِيَاتِ, this reference is further strengthened. Also, the "Risale-i Şakk-ı Kamer," which is an appendix to the Mi'rac Risale and proves the miracle of the Splitting of the Moon against the deniers with strong evidence, is mentioned by Hazrat Imam Ali (r.a.) in a manner close to sarahat. This is done by quoting from the sûre-i 2 اِقْتَرَبَتِ السَّاعَةُ وَانْشَقَّ الْقَمَرُ and referring to it in the thirty-first rank with the phrase 3 وَبِاِقْتَرَبَتْ لِىَ اْلاُمُورُ تَقَرَّبَتْ.

And even in the number of the chapters, by changing the wording at the twenty-fifth level and starting anew as if saying "By the truth, blessed be," he indicates the importance of the Twenty-Fifth Word, which is the most blessed and fruitful of the Risale-i Nur. Then in the twenty-sixth and twenty-seventh, he says "Abadikhu Bayzikhu Wadhimukhu Ba'dhā."
Then in the thirtieth and thirty-first, he says "Bilbalx Wasmayān Wabāzūkh Ba'dhā," again changing the wording and mentioning the word "Ba'dhā." With a very clear and strong indication, it seems to strongly indicate the important and precious addition in the Twenty-Seventh Word regarding the Companions and the important addition in the Thirty-First Word regarding the Ascension, which is of great need and relates to the Ascension, using the word "Ba'dhā." I confess that I had forgotten these additions. I was reminded by this warning of Imam Ali (r.a.). I had previously written about the Ascension. Now, at this moment, I have remembered the addition regarding the Companions. Indeed, in the science of eloquence and the art of expression, if a meaning is intended only through a single indication and if an idea is pointed out only through a single relation, that idea is accepted as a figurative or symbolic meaning. Naturally, considering the evident and numerous indications and signs, the fact that the word "Ba'dhā," which is in the same context and meaning as the additions in these two places, is expressed by changing the wording in the form of repetition is a complete indication that Imam Ali (r.a.) wants to express not only the literal meaning but also a figurative and symbolic meaning. Then, in the twenty-ninth level, he says in a magnificent style, "Khamarūkh Yashrūkh Bisharakh Tashammakhat." He strongly indicates with a repetition the word "Tashammakhat," which means "to know the secrets," that was mentioned earlier in the Twenty-Fifth Word, which is the miraculous Twenty-Ninth Word.
