Sultan-ul-Qalam KING OF THE PEN Allah the Almighty has named this humble one سُلْطَانُ الْقَلَمِ ]King of the Pen] and has called my pen the Dhulfaqar of 'Alīta. [Tadhkirah, p. 333] ید بیضا که با او تابنده باز با ذوالفقار می بینم That is, I see his hand, which flashes like a sword in respect of incontrovertible arguments, and then I see him with Dhulfaqar. This means that there was a time when 'Alī (may Allāh bless his countenance), held the Dhulfaqar in his hand; but God Almighty will grant the sword to this Imam, and his shining hand will accomplish that which had been accomplished by Dhulfaqar in the past. Thus his hand will seem as if it was the Dhulfaqar of 'Alīta that has reappeared. This also indicates that the said Imam will be سُلْطَانُ الْقَلَمِ and his pen will serve as Dhulfaqar. This prophecy is an exact translation of a revelation granted to me, and published in Brāhīn-e-Ahmadiyya ten years ago. It reads: كِتَابُ الْوَلِيِّ ذُو الْفَقَارِ عَلِيِّ 50 Dhulfaqar: The sword of Hadrat 'Alīta. [Publisher] 155
