Endless peace and blessings be upon our master Muhammad, to the number of the good deeds of his community, to whom was revealed the All-Wise Criterion of Truth and Falsehood, from One Most Merciful, Most Compassionate,   from  the  Sublime  Throne;   whose  messengerhood   was foretold by the Torah and Bible, and told of by wondrous signs, the voices of jinn, saints of man, and soothsayers; at whose indication the moon split; our master  Muhammad!  Peace  and  blessings  be  upon  him  thousands  and thousands of times, to the number of the breaths of his community; at whose beckoning  came the tree, on whose prayer rain swiftly fell, and whom the cloud shaded from the heat; who satisfied a hundred men with his food; from between whose fingers three times flowed water like the Spring of Kawthar; and to whom God made speak the lizard, the gazelle, the wolf, the torso, the arm, the camel, the mountain, the rock, and the clod; the one who made the Ascension and whose eye did not waver; our master and intercessor, Muhammad! Peace and blessings be upon him thousands and thousands of times, to the number of the letters of the Qur’an formed in the words represented with the permission of the Most Merciful in the mirrors of the airwaves at the reciting of all the words of the Qur’an by all reciters from when it was first revealed to the end of time. And grant us forgiveness and have mercy on us, O God, for each of those blessings. Amen.

[I  have  described  the  Evidences  for  Muhammad’s  (UWBP)  prophethood which I have here indicated briefly, in a Turkish treatise called Şuaât-ı Mârifeti’n-Nebî  and in the Nineteenth  Letter (The Miracles of Muhammad). There  too  aspects  of  the  All-Wise  Qur’an’s   miraculousness   have  been mentioned  briefly.  Again,  in  a  Turkish  treatise  called  Lemeât  and  in  the Twenty-Fifth Word (The Miraculousness of the Qur’an) I have explained concisely  forty ways in which  the Qur’an is a miracle  and indicated  forty aspects of its miraculousness.  Of those forty aspects, only the eloquence  in the word-order I have written in forty pages in an Arabic commentary called Signs  of Miraculousness  (Isharat  al-I‘jaz).  If you  have the need,  you  ma y refer to those three works.]

Fourteenth Droplet

The All-Wise Qur’an, the treasury of miracles and supreme miracle, proves the prophethood of Muhammad (UWBP) together with divine unity so decisively that it leaves no need for further proof. We shall therefore give its definition and indicate one or two flashes of its miraculousness which have been the cause of criticism.
