My Dear, Loyal Brothers!
Firstly: Endless thanks be to Almighty God that as proved by the unwavering activities of the heroic students in these harsh conditions, Isparta will be a full Medresetü'z‑Zehrâ and al-Azhar University, and has begun to be so. Their working enthusiastically at the Qur'an and Risale-i Nur, and in Ali Köyü even many children becoming students through the efforts of the Ali's and all the young people in another village working at the Qur'an at night and the mosques being filled with congregations, reduces to nothing the difficulties suffered by the Nur students.
Secondly: For sure, the fourth long poem of the extraordinarily loyal and devoted Halil İbrahim and the descriptions far exceeding my due of my servanthood of the Risale‑i Nur, are really very fine, but since the poem looks more to my person than to the Risale-i Nur I have not sent it to you for now; it shall be sent after it has been modified. I particularly send greetings to him and to his companions.
Thirdly: Don't be anxious about their conspiracies against me; perhaps, indeed, you should be pleased that they are attacking my insignificant person whose work is finished in place of the Risale‑i Nur and its students, and tormenting me.
Recently there has been the incident of the high‑ranking officials here telling some people that “Said should be disposed of.” Profiting from ideas like these that have been put around, my secret enemies scattered my assistants, and seizing the opportunity, poisoned me. They felt empowered by officials like them. But divine providence and preservation thwarted their conspiracy. God willing, this providence and preservation will persist and all their plans will be foiled.
