198 Essence of Islam-V placed my hand on the foot of the bedstead and fell asleep for a while. When I woke up there was no sign of the toothache, and this revelation was on my lips: إِذَا مَرِضْتَ فَهُوَ يَشْفِى i. e. , 'When you fall ill, it is He that heals. ' فَالْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ عَلَى ذَلِكَ ]Allah be praised for this. [ [Haqiqat-ul-Wahī, Rūņānī Khazā'in, vol. 22, pp. 246-247] On 27th January, 1905, the Promised Messiahas felt a swelling on his right cheek which was very painful. On supplication, he received the following words through revelation. When he recited these words upon himself, he was instantly cured: بِسْمِ اللهِ الْكَافِي بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الشَّافِي بَسْمِ اللَّهِ الْغَفُورِ الرَّحِيمِ بسمِ اللهِ الْبَرِّ الْكَرِيمِ يَا حَفِيظٌ - يَا عَزِيزُ يَارَفِيقُ يَا وَلِيُّ اشْفِنِي * [Tadhkirah, p. 442] I have had the experience during several illnesses that, by the grace of God, I was cured through prayer alone. Only a few days ago I had become very weak due to the increased urge to pass urine, as well as di- arrhoea. I prayed and received the revelation: دُعَاءُكَ مُسْتَجَابٌ Immediately after that the illness abated. God is the Prescription better than all other prescriptions, and is 65 In the name of Allah, the Sufficient; In the name of Allah, the Healer; In the name of Allah, the Most Forgiving, the Merciful; In the name of the Benevolent, the Noble. O Mighty One! O Protector! O Companion! O Guardian! Heal me. [Publisher] 66 Your prayer is accepted. [Publisher]
