Translations:Yirmi Sekizinci Mektup/78/en
Then I saw Maktubat (Letters) of Imam-i Rabbani and took it up. I opened it purely to take an omen. It is strange, but in the whole of Maktubat the word Bediuzzaman appears only twice and those two letters fell open for me at once. I saw that written at the head of them was: “Letter to Mirza Bediuzzaman,” and my father’s name was Mirza. “Glory be to God!” I exclaimed, “these letters are addressing me.” At that time the Old Said was also known as Bediuzzaman. Apart from Bediuzzaman Hamadani, I knew of no one in the last three hundred years famous with the name. Whereas in the Imam’s time there was such a person and he wrote him these two letters. His condition must have been similar to mine, for I found that these letters were the cure for my ills.
