And 1 "mercy between them," he informs about Hazrat Osman, who, while a most important fitna was being prepared in the future, out of his perfect mercy and compassion, preferred to sacrifice his soul and surrender himself, reciting the Qur'an, to prevent bloodshed among Muslims, and to be martyred as a wronged person. Also, 2 "you will see them prostrating themselves, seeking bounty from Allah and His pleasure," he informs about Hazrat Ali (r.a.), who entered the caliphate and sovereignty with perfect worthiness and heroism, and chose perfect asceticism, worship, poverty, and moderation, and whose prostration and kneeling were continuously and abundantly witnessed by everyone, and that he is not responsible for the future situation and the conflicts within those fitnas, and that his intention and aim is divine bounty.

3 "This is their example in the Torah," is a divine revelation from two aspects.
FIRST: It informs about the description of the Companions of the Prophet, peace be upon him, who is an unlettered person, in the Torah, which is a matter of the unseen.
Indeed, in the Torah, as stated in the Nineteenth Letter, there is this verse about the Companions of the future Prophet who will come in the last times: "The banners of the holy ones are with them."4 That is, his Companions are the people of obedience and worship, the people of virtue and spiritual authority, and these qualities are expressed with the term "kudsî," meaning "holy." Despite the many translations of the Torah into various languages, which have caused numerous alterations, this verse of the Sûre-i Feth confirms the judgment "their example in the Torah" with multiple verses.

I can accept your high opinion of me, in the name of the spiritual character of the Risale-i Nur. Otherwise, it is not fitting for me to imagine myself in such high stations.
Moreover, "The method of the Risale-i Nur is not a tariqa (spiritual path), but the truth; it is a continuation of the method of the Companions. This is not the time for tariqas, but the time to save faith." The Risale-i Nur has performed and is performing this service in the most difficult and heavy times, praise be to God. The circle of the Risale-i Nur is a circle of the disciples in this age, through the hidden communications of the Prophet Ali, Hasan, and Husayn (peace be upon them) and the great Gavs (may God be pleased with him). Because Hazrat Ali, with his three hidden miracles, has informed about the Risale-i Nur, and the great Gavs (may God be pleased with him) has also strongly informed about the Risale-i Nur and has interpreted it. These four secret Risales belong to the four Risales of the Alevi and Gavs miracles. Insha'Allah, one day they can be sent to you. The scholars of knowledge have not objected to them. They only made a small criticism, saying "This should not have been written." I answered them, and they fell silent. Indeed, I have directly received my lessons of truth from the great Gavs (may God be pleased with him) and Zeynelâbidîn (peace be upon him) and through Hasan and Husayn (peace be upon them) from Imam Ali (peace be upon him). Therefore, the circle in which we serve is their circle.
Praise be to the Almighty, thanks to your prayers, the danger of a dangerous and poisonous illness, which had been very severe for more than fifteen days, has passed in two days. Since the illness lasted for one hour of worship equivalent to one day, insha'Allah, this illness has filled the place of many good deeds I could not do and has atoned for many of my shortcomings. However, weakness and illness continue.
It is a beautiful and meaningful coincidence that yesterday, I received a collection of innocent writings, and when I opened it, I saw that at the beginning of that collection, the "Small Words" written beautifully, embroidered, and carefully by Marangoz Ahmed, one of the heroes of the Nuriye Madrasa and a commander of the innocent, had been placed. "By God, Marangoz Ahmed has become the leader of the innocent," I said. On the same day, I received a letter, opened it, and read Marangoz A...

For example, the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him), showed extraordinary compassion and great importance to Hazrat Hasan and Hazrat Husayn in their childhood. This was not merely a kind of affection or a feeling of kinship, but rather it was a part of the luminous essence of the prophetic mission and the origin, representative, and index of the very important community of the Prophetic inheritance.
Indeed, the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) took Hazrat Hasan (may Allah be pleased with him) into his arms out of great compassion and kissed his head. This was because Hazrat Hasan (may Allah be pleased with him) is the source of the luminous lineage from which the great and guided figures such as Shah Gilani, who are the heirs of the Prophetic legacy and the bearers of the Ahmedi religious law (a.s.m.), descend. The Prophet kissed Hazrat Hasan's head on their behalf and in anticipation of the sacred services they would perform in the future. He foresaw and approved of these services with his prophetic vision, and as a sign of this approval and encouragement, he kissed Hazrat Hasan's head.
Similarly, the extraordinary importance and compassion shown by the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) towards Hazrat Husayn (may Allah be pleased with him) was because of the great and noble Imams and true heirs of the Prophetic legacy, such as Zainal Abidin and Ja'far al-Sadiq, who descend from the luminous lineage of Hazrat Husayn (may Allah be pleased with him). The Prophet kissed his neck on their behalf and demonstrated his profound compassion and importance.
Indeed, the luminous gaze of the Ahmedi figure (a.s.m.), whose heart is well-versed in the unseen, who sees the battlefield of the Day of Resurrection from the era of the Age of Bliss to the eternal world, who sees the Garden from the earth, who observes the angels in the sky, who sees the hidden events that have been veiled in the darkness since the time of Adam, and who has even been granted the vision of the Almighty, certainly saw the luminous descendants, the Imams and heirs, and the guided figures following Hazrat Hasan and Hazrat Husayn. He kissed their heads on behalf of the majority of them. Yes, the kiss on the head of Hazrat Hasan (may Allah be pleased with him) includes the share of Shah Gilani.

They raised hundreds of thousands of muftis, muhaddiths, and saints, and ascetics. If the House of Bait had not possessed such strong authority, piety, and perfection, it would have been likely that they would have completely deviated, as had happened in the later periods of the Abbasids and Umayyads.
If one were to ask: "Why did the Islamic caliphate not emerge from the House of the Prophetic Family, although they were most worthy and entitled?"
The answer is: The worldly sultanate is deceptive. The House of Bait was entrusted with preserving the truths of Islam and the rulings of the Qur'an. Whoever assumes the caliphate or sultanate must either be sinless like a prophet, or possess an extraordinary asceticism of heart, like the Rightly Guided Caliphs, Omar ibn Abdalaziz al-Umawi, or the Mahdi of the Abbasids, so as not to be deceived. Indeed, the Fatimid state formed by the descendants of the House of Bait in Egypt, the Muwahhidun government in Africa, and the Safavid state in Iran show that the worldly sultanate is not suitable for the House of Bait; it causes them to forget their primary duty of protecting religion and serving Islam. However, when they abandon sultanate, they serve Islam and the Qur'an in a brilliant and elevated manner.
Look: The descendants of Hazrat Hasan, especially the Aktabs-i Erbaa, and especially the great Gavs-i Azam, Sheikh Abdulqadir Gilani, and the imams from the descendants of Hazrat Hussein, especially Zeynelabidin and Jafar al-Sadiq, each of whom became a spiritual Mahdi, dispelling spiritual oppression and darkness, and spreading the lights of the Qur'an and the truths of faith, have shown that they are the true heirs of their ancestors.

TENTH EXAMPLE: According to a definite and authentic narration, Hazrat Imam Ali said:
The Honored Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, gathered the Banu Abdilmuttalib. They were forty men. Some of them ate a camel's calf and drank four qiyyas of milk. However, only a small amount of food, as much as a handful, was prepared for them all. They all ate and were satisfied, and the food remained as it was. Then, a pot of milk was brought, enough to suffice only three or four people. They all drank and were satisfied, and the milk remained as if it had not been drunk. 1
Indeed, this is a miracle of abundance, a clear proof of the bravery and sincerity of Hazrat Ali!
ELEVENTH EXAMPLE: According to an authentic narration, in the wedding of Hazrat Ali and Fatimah al-Zahra, the Honored Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, ordered Bilal al-Habashi: "Prepare four or five handfuls of flour into bread and slaughter a camel's calf."
Hazrat Bilal said: I brought the food. The blessed hand of the Prophet touched it. Then, group after group of Companions came, ate, and went away. When the amount of food remaining was sufficient for only a few, the Prophet again blessed it with prayer. Then, to each of the pure guests, a bowl was sent. He ordered: "Let them eat and also give to those who come with them." 2
Indeed, in such a blessed gathering, such abundance is necessary and certainly occurs.
TWELFTH EXAMPLE: Hazrat Imam Ja'far al-Sadiq narrates from his father, Imam Muhammad al-Baqir, who in turn narrates from his father, Imam Zainalabidin, who in turn narrates from Imam Ali:
Hazrat Fatimah al-Zahra prepared a meal sufficient for only two people. Then she sent Ali to invite the Honored Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, to come and eat with them. He came and ordered that from that meal, a bowl be sent to each of the guests. Then, after setting aside one bowl for himself, one for Ali, one for Fatimah and her children, Hazrat Fatimah said: "We lifted our pot and it was still full and overflowing. For a long time, by the divine grace, we ate from that food." 3
Why do you not believe in this miracle of abundance, which comes from this luminous, high chain of narration, as if you had seen it with your own eyes? Indeed, even Satan cannot find an excuse for this.
