Included here is the continuation of the earthquake incident from Husrev’s letter; the beginning is not included.
I later saw in another newspaper, the following amazing, complementary facts: before the earthquake, the cats and dogs gathered together in groups of four or five. They silently sat down together looking at each other pensively and blankly, then dispersed. None of these animals was to be seen either during the earthquake, or immediately before it, or after it; they disappeared into the countryside away from the towns. Another strange thing they write is that these animals gave news through the tongue of disposition of the coming disaster, which resulted from our sins, and they did not understand it and are amazed.
Among the hundreds of things that for years Bediuzzaman has predicted in the Risale‑i Nur, is that the atheists should avoid interfering with the Risale‑i Nur and its students, for if harm comes to the latter, the disasters waiting in the offing will make them regret it a hundred time over. The earthquake verified this with its signature, then four more disasters occurred…
May Allah the Most High bestow belief on our hearts and on the hearts of those who attack the Risale‑i Nur, and give them minds that will recognize the truth, and save us from these dungeons and them from disasters. Amen.
Husrev
