Letters ( revised ) | THE NINETEENTH LETTER | 256
(111-259)
The prophets  have  verbally predicted  the coming  of that being and given good tidings thereof in the Torah, the Gospels, the Psalms, and other scriptures; more than twent y of the most conclusive examples of these glad tidings, drawn from the scriptures, have been set forth and proven in the Nineteenth Letter. Similarly, through all the deeds and miracles associated with their prophethood they have affirmed and – as it were – put their signature to the mission of that being which is the foremost and most perfect in the tasks and  functions  of prophethood.  Just as through  verbal  consensus  they indicate the divine unity, through the unanimity of their deeds they bear witness to the truthfulness of that being. This too was understood by our traveller.

T h e   F i f t h : Similarly,  the thousands of saints who have attained  truth, reality, perfection, wondrous deeds, unveiling and witnessing through the instruction of this being and following him, bear unanimous witness not only to the divine unit y but also to the truthfulness and messengerhood of this being. Again, the fact that they witness, through the light of sainthood, some of the truths he proclaimed concerning the  World  of the  Unseen,  and  that  they believe  in and  affirm  all of those  truths through the light of belief, either with ‘knowledge of certainty,’ or with the ‘vision of certainty,’ or with ‘absolute certainty.’  He saw that this too demonstates like the sun the degree of truthfulness and rectitude of that great being, their master.

T h e  S i x t h : The millions of purified, sincere, and punctilious scholars and faithful sages, who have reached the highest station of learning through the teaching and  instruction  contained  in  the  sacred  truths  brought  by that  being,  despite  his unlettered   nature,  the  exalted   sciences   he  invented   and  divine   knowledge   he discovered  – they not only prove and affirm,  unanimously  and with the  strongest proofs,  the  divine  unity  which  is  the  foundation  of  his  mission,  but  also  bear unanimous witness to the truthfulness of this supreme teacher and great master, and to the veracity of his words. This is a proof as clear as daylight. The Risale-i Nur too with its one hundred parts is but a single proof of his truthfulness.

T h e  S e v e n t h : The Family and Companions of the Prophet – who with their insight, knowledge, and spiritual accomplishment are the most renowned, the most respected, the most celebrated, the most pious and the most keensighted of men after the prophets – examined and scrutinized, with the utmost attention, seriousness and exactitude,  all the states, thoughts  and conditions  of this being, whether  hidden or open. They came to the unanimous conclusion that he was the most truthful, exalted, and honest being in the world, and this, their unshakeable affirmation and firm belief, is a proof like the daylight attesting the reality of the sun.
