them. Centuries passed after the departure of the Holy
Prophet sa , and thousands of disorders arose, and great
earthquakes were felt, and diverse forms of corruption spread,
and a whole world mounted attacks against Islām, and all its
blessings and miracles were denied, and that which was
acceptable was declared unacceptable, and yet God Almighty
never again looked upon the Muslims nor had mercy on them,
nor did He consider that the Muslims were also weak human
beings and, like the children of Israel, their plants also were in
need of heavenly water. Could the Beneficent God, Who had
sent the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings of Allāh be upon
him) to remove all corruption forever, turn away from the
Muslims like this? Can we conceive that God Almighty was so
Merciful towards previous people and, having revealed the
Torah, sent thousands of prophets and muhaddathīn in support
of the Torah and for the repeated revival of the hearts of the
children of Israel, but that the Muslims were subject to His
Wrath and, therefore, after the revelation of the Holy Qur’ān,
He forgot them and left them forever to the reasoning and
deduction of clerics? God clearly stated concerning Moses as :

That is to say: ‘Allāh spoke to Moses as ’ and ‘sent messengers
bearing glad tidings as well as warnings to help him and to
testify to his truth, so that people may not have any excuse after
