When God sent forth His Prophet Muhammad,
on that day the termination of the prophetic cycle was foreordained in the
knowledge of God. Yea, that promise hath indeed come true and the decree of God
hath been accomplished as He hath ordained. Assuredly we are today living in
the Days of God. These are the glorious days on the like of which the sun hath
never risen in the past. These are the days which the people in bygone times
eagerly expected. What hath then befallen you that ye are fast asleep? These are
the days wherein God hath caused the Day-Star of Truth to shine resplendent.
What hath then caused you to keep your silence? These are the appointed days
which ye have been yearningly awaiting in the past—the days of the advent of
divine justice. Render ye thanks unto God, O ye concourse of believers.
