At a time when, under the effects of this event, I determined to completely resign myself to sacrificing myself for my innocent brothers and was seeking for a solution, I read Jaljalutiyya. It suddenly occurred to me that Imam ‘Ali (May Allah be pleased with him) prayed: O Allah! Deliver us!; Allah willing, you shall be delivered through the meaning of his supplication.
Yes, in his Qaṣīda al‑Jaljalūtiyya, Imam ‘Ali (May Allah be pleased with him) gave news of the Risale‑i Nur in two ways, and alluded to The Supreme Sign with the lines And through The Supreme Sign, secure me from sudden disaster. With this allusion, he is indicating that due to The Supreme Sign, a disaster of significant proportions will be visited on the Risale‑i Nur students and is beseeching Allah the Most High to deliver the students from the calamity for the sake of The Supreme Sign; he is making the treatise and its source an intercessor. Yes, the printing of The Supreme Sign was made the pretext for the calamity that occurred, and confirmed exactly that sign of the Unseen.
Also, on the opposite page in the qasida, it says at the end of the allusions to the important parts of the Risale‑i Nur and their arrangement, in meaning: These letters of light, gather together their properties; And study their meanings, for through them good is fulfilled.
That is: “The words and letters of the Risale‑i Nur, which we alluded to; collect their properties and study their meanings, for all good and happiness is achieved through them.” It may be inferred from the phrase “Study the meanings of the letters” that it refers not to the letters, which express no meaning, but to the treatises called Sözler, which means The Words.
None knows the Unseen save Allah ❋ Our Sustainer! Do not call us to task if we forget or do wrong.
Said Nursi
