One of these signs of the unseen is as follows:
The Almighty, out of His infinite mercy and grace, to encourage us who are engaged in service to the Qur'an and faith, and to satisfy our hearts, has bestowed a divine favor and an act of divine kindness as a sign that our service is accepted and as an indication that what we have written is true. In this way, He has shown a subtle grace and kindness in the form of hidden coincidences in all our treatises, especially in the treatises "Mu'cizat-ı Ahmediye," "Icâz-ı Kur'an," and "Pencereler."
Namely, in one page, for example, He causes similar words to look at each other. A sign of the unseen is given here, saying, "This is arranged by a hidden will. Do not trust your own judgment and awareness. Wonders and arrangements are made without your knowledge or awareness."
Especially in the treatise "Mu'cizat-ı Ahmediye," the words of the Noble Messenger and the words of salutations take on the effect of a ritual, clearly showing these hidden coincidences. In the handwriting of a new, inexperienced scribe, except for five pages, more than two hundred of these noble salutations look at each other in parallel.
These coincidences are certainly not the result of chance, which could only cause one or two coincidences in ten samples. Nor is it the thought of someone like me, who is completely unskilled in calligraphy, who composes dozens of pages in just one or two hours with great speed, without writing them personally or having them written.
Indeed, six years later, again guided by the Qur'an and the guidance that came through the pattern of the nine "Inna" in the tafsir "Isarat al-Icâz," I became convinced. The scribes, when they heard from me, were amazed and remained in awe.
Just as the words of the Noble Messenger and the words of salutations took on the effect of a small ritual of a type of Ahmedi miracle in the Nineteenth Letter.

It is a saying of Hafız Ali.
Beloved Master, I received the first part of the fifteenth Lem'ah of the Thirty-First Letter with great sorrow.
Beloved Master, indeed, in my humble and poor opinion, the "Words that spread the lights of the sun of guidance" are the market of truth and reality. Whatever exists in the realm of truth is so rich, adorned, and boundless. To obtain the goods of such a world, one must have the strength of a sultan. And if one wishes to see, one must have a sharp, penetrating, and mobile gaze that can see through travel and observation. Since this is very rare, it is necessary to have a sample plate of all the goods.
O beloved Master, all sample plates were previously seen to show the types of the whole and the universals with just one piece. They serve no other purpose. But from each piece of the index and sample plate of the infinite treasure, which is entirely light, a "hanîfen müslimen" garment will emerge. They have extraordinary pieces and values. Just as they are extraordinary with their universals opposing the general, they carry an extraordinary conclusion with their parts.
Yes, Master, while I was studying this letter, my heart and soul were filled with excitement and longing to see all the resplendent lights with the utmost joy and sensitivity. Thus, Master, just as we need every part of all the treatises, we strongly need to see each part at once. May the Almighty, the Necessary in Existence, grant you the reward through His perfect mercy and compassion, and may He bestow it upon you through His mercy and compassion. Amin.

One of these signs of the unseen is as follows:
The Almighty, out of His infinite mercy and grace, to encourage us who are engaged in service to the Qur'an and faith, and to satisfy our hearts, has bestowed a divine favor and a divine kindness in the form of a sign of the unseen, indicating the acceptance of our service and the truth of what we have written. In all our treatises, and especially in the treatises "Mu'cizat-ı Ahmediye" and "Icâz-ı Kur'an ve Pencereler," He has shown a subtle grace in the form of hidden coincidences.
That is, in one page, for example, He causes similar words to look at each other. A sign of the unseen is given here, saying, "It is arranged by a hidden will. Do not trust your own judgment and awareness. Wonders and arrangements are made without your knowledge and before your awareness catches up."
Especially in the treatise "Mu'cizat-ı Ahmediye," the words of the Noble Messenger and the words of salutations take on the effect of a ritual, clearly showing these hidden coincidences. In the handwriting of a new, inexperienced scribe, except for five pages, more than two hundred of these noble salutations look at each other in parallel.

Indeed, six years later, again guided by the Qur'an and the guidance that came through the pattern of the nine "Inna" in the tafsir "Isharatu'l-Icâz," I became convinced. The scribes, when they heard from me, were amazed and astonished.

FOURTH PRINCIPLE
If you wish to understand the highness of the Qur'an among all divine words and its preeminence over all other utterances, look at these two analogies.
First analogy: A sultan has two types of communication, two styles of address. One is speaking with an ordinary subject about a particular matter or a specific request via a private phone call. The other is speaking through an envoy or a high-ranking official, using the title of the supreme sultanate, the name of the grand caliphate, and the dignity of general sovereignty, in order to announce and publicize his decrees, and this is a lofty decree that declares his majesty.
Second analogy: A man holds a magnifying glass toward the sun; the amount of light and a luminous spectrum of seven colors is gathered through that magnifying glass. In this way, he relates to the sun and converses with it. If he directs that luminous magnifying glass to his dark house or the garden under his roof, he can benefit not according to the value of the sun, but perhaps according to the capacity of that magnifying glass. The other method is to open wide windows in his house or garden, and build paths toward the sun in the sky. He converses with the eternal light of the real sun, speaks with it, and in such a manner, with the language of his condition, he says in a grateful tone: "O sun, the beauty of the earth and the nearness of the sky, who adorns the earth with your light and makes the faces of all flowers bloom! Just as you warmed and illuminated the entire world, you also warmed and illuminated my little house and my small garden." Whereas the owner of the magnifying glass cannot say this. The effects of the recorded sun are limited, and they are dependent on that record.
Now, look at the Qur'an through the lens of these two analogies, so that you may see its excellence and understand its sacredness.
Indeed, the Qur'an says: "If the trees on earth were pens and the oceans were ink, the words of God would not be exhausted." 1 Now, the reason the highest rank among these infinite words is given to the Qur'an is as follows:

My dear and respected Master, the index of the "Sözler" (Sayings), "Mektubat" (Letters), and "Pencereler" (Windows) has been so beautifully compiled that anyone who even glances at it can form a general idea about the value and importance of the Risâletü'n-Nur works. This index is worth the price of all the treatises. No author can produce such important four treatises by summarizing the meaning of each of the approximately one hundred and twenty books he has written, especially the verses in the texts, one by one in a suitable and meaningful way, and explaining the essence and nature of the treatises. Another obvious feature of this index is that it is not based on your own choice, but is proven to be based on inner inspirations. As we see these things, we are very grateful to our Lord for having access to a Master like you.
