3- The mu’jizas (miracles) worked through Muhammad
‘alaihis-salâm’ were much more numerous than the total of those
wrought through the others. The mu’jizas of the others are past
and over. A number of Muhammad’s ‘alaihis-salâm’ mu’jizas, on
the other hand, especially the mu’jiza of Qur’ân al-kerîm, have
been continuing and will last till the end of the world. And the
kerâmats [1]
of his Ummat (Muslims), especially those wrought
through the Awliyâ, [2]
have been occurring continually and
everywhere.
4- Among the reports communicating these three religions to
us, those which are conveyed through Qur’ân al-kerîm and
Hadîth-i-sherîfs are more numerous and more dependable. All of
them have been committed to books and spread throughout the
world. Muhammad ‘alaihis-salâm’ was forty years old when he was

west, and after the number of his As-hâb had reached 150
thousand. He performed his Farewell Hajj together with his 120
thousand Sahâbîs, and passed away eighty days after this. The
third âyat-i-kerîma of Mâida sûra, which purports, “Today I have
completed your religion and consummated my blessing on you and
called Islam as your religion,” was revealed during this Hajj. All
these Sahâbîs were faithful and true. Most of them were
profoundly learned in Islam and were Awliyâ. They spread
Rasûlullah’s religion and mu’jizas over the earth. For they
travelled to other countries for Jihâd. Whereever they went they
conveyed the religious teachings and mu’jizas to men of
knowledge living there. And these people, in their turn, taught
others. Thus, scholars living in each century taught many other
scholars belonging to the next generations. And these scholars
wrote these teachings in thousands of books, and also wrote the
names of those people who conveyed these teachings. They
[1] An extraordinary event which Allâhu ta’âlâ creates through a person
whom He loves is called a wonder, or a miracle. When a miracle
occurs through a Prophet it is termed a mu’jiza. When it occurs
through a Walî, i.e. a person loved by Allâhu ta’âlâ, it is called a
kerâmet. Please see our book Proof of Prophethood.
