God: grant that I speak the truth in this statement and be thou my witness, for thou art the best of witnesses.
God created Adam and he sent his teachers and warner’s in every community tin succession. Mohammad (Peace be Upon Him) came last and in him the office of prophecy culminated. With him came the book, the last of the books as the last declared will of God to man. The Quran being the word of God to give guidance to mankind to the Day of Judgment in every problem, the office of interpretation of the Quran was open to the Day of Judgment. It is in the interpretation of the Quran regarding the present day problems of this mankind that my mission lay.
Of the particular problems of this present Baconian age of atomism is the problem of the atomic annihilation that now appears at the point of b ringing about the complete atomic ruin of life on earth in extreme misery and disgrace to mankind. Escape from this doom, this most grievous of the dooms imaginable, due to its being the result of the process of the Baconian atomistic materialism, is impossible in spite of great optimism of the scientist and the sheer blindness of the mankind, and indeed despite the notion of the Christians and the Muslims about the compatibility of their respective scriptures with the modern progress. These conceited Christians and Muslims will see the pages of the Gospel and of the Quran the Christian church and the Islamic Mosque reduced to ashes along with their bodies and their buildings and shot into space by the hails of atomic bombs. The fate of the handbooks of Einstein and every other atomist will in no way be different form the rest. It is the rossest libel on the Gospel of Christ and on the Quran to impute to them the quality of compatibility with the modern Baconian progress of atomistic materialism which stands as antithesis to the very spirit of faith in general. The science is dragging the world toward the atomic hell without any alternative and without any hope, so that as far as science is concerned the doom is invariably sealed.
If this is the case, and this indeed is the case, then should this mankind resign itself to its fate and await the approach of the dreadful moment. Here then the image of my mission appears, Science by now stands with a host of its miracles, miracles that today cover the entire earth. Among these miracles figures the crowing miracle of science, the miracle of the atomic power with its atomic bombs and atomic radiations. So powerful is this miracle that with a dire yell and a roaring thunder it can consume the entire life on earth, reducing the whole construction on earth to dust and debris. Just imagine the power of Demon science, when it stands in the heaven holding its terrible trident that with one shake can bring all the thundering furies into play and destroy this world in a matter of seconds. If then this world has to be saved, a miracle more powerful than this miracle of science to counteract it to its destruction is peccary. Where is that power in this world that has a miracle stronger than the all-consuming atomic bomb? Well, it is that power and it is that miracle which is modern powerful than the all-consuming atomic bomb and the deadly atomic radiations that I have discovered. Indeed by the Grace of God, The power that has provided this miracle in the Quran and the miracle is a chapter of the Quran consisting of thirty-six words. I can assure this mankind that this is a miracle far more powerful than all the atomic stockpiles of the world, and that it is miraculous enough to throw every knowing physicist and the radiobiologist in wonder, for, it meets the nuclear scientist in his own field and evinces a knowledge of the subject of nuclear science that may come to every nuclear scientist nothing short of a miracle. And then it condemns the atomic energy, and all its manifestations with the authority of a super scientist and a supreme logician. This is the only miracle that can save this world from the dreadful fate of atomic annihilation. There is not a power beneath this blue a sky and above this earth to save this world from the atomic ruin besides this miracle of the Quran still unknown to the world, for it is my own discovery.
I have exposed this modern Baconian culture of atomistic materialism to the light of the Quran and found the judgment thereof. I have shown the teachings of Jesus Christ in the pristine purity and simplicity of the Gospel. I have cleared the misunderstandings of both the followers of Christ and of the Quran regarding the views of their respective scriptures about this modern atomistic progress. I have shown the necessity of discovering the spirit of Jesus Christ and his otherworldliness in the Quran and I have sown the necessity of the combination of the spirit of Christ and of Islam in combating this very powerful foe of faith and peace, this Baconian creed of modern atomistic materialism, and it is not the desires of men but the truth of the Quran, the Gospel and science that I have considered throughout. For if the truth is be made subservient to the desires of men, then corruption occurs in heavens and earth, like that which now has appeared with the result that this world now faces the most disgraceful doom. The Christians of the West have turned their backs completely on the Gospel of Jesus, while the Muslims interpret the Quran as if this were a book of materialism, never considering that if the Quran too were a book of materialism, then what were its necessity in this materialistic age, and they are mistaken to think that they can unite this modern progress, as it is, and the teachings of the Quran, as they are, to accomplish a balanced system as a credit to Islam.
I tell you that in the two volumes that are concerned with the atomic hell and the system of Baconian atomistic materialism responsible for the appearance of the atomic hell, the atomic bombs and the atomic radiations, the entire argument is based on science and logic in the light of the Quran and not once I have depended on the divine authority of the scripture. This applies else to my mission. I claim no credit for any divine sanction if there is any. I expect my reward from Allah. To whom goes all the credit? Mine has been the toil and affliction only. Nay even that too I would not have been able to undertake except for His will. All this, however, had not been such easy and if, I open my heart to you as one human-being opens his heart to another, you will shudder to hear a vestige of that which I was destined to suffer during my forty year-long-ordeal in quest of truth. Nor it is in my power to describe even if I borrow the pen of Lord Macaulay. Shakespeare perhaps could have reached nearer the truth to express it in some touching manner.
Just imagine a boy absconding from the school after a few year’s forced stay therein never to return. In his twenty-fifth year he is cast into the field of knowledge, the earning member of a family, studying languages literatures, histories, philosophies, sciences, scriptures of various religions and theologies, all of the highest order and of classical nature, and without a teacher, to deal with the giants of the caliber of Socrates, Platoes, Aristotles, Democritus, Bacons, Darwins, Spinozas, Eisnteins, Sir James Jeans, and all the host of post Bacon philosophers. And the pre-Teller atomismistics, Mullers. Shakespeares, Miltons, Wordsworths, and the long list of English Poets and Novelists, Hafizes, Sa'adis, Rumei's and all the host of Persian Poets and Prose writers. Iqbal’s Ghalibs and all the host of Urdu poets and prose writers, the Quran, the Bible, old as well as the new Testament, and not merely reading for pleasure but first rising to a standard to understand their writings and then to affect critical appreciation, meditating on every point individually and independently. Urdu I read first. On the dint of Urdu I read Persian. On the dint of Persian I read Arabic. On the other English I read. Language and literature and on the dint of this I read the atomic philosophy and in the last I read science, nuclear science with particular attention. How I did it I find myself at a loss to tell. You question me, as I am questioned so after, and you will find me lost in myself, dumbfounded and sad in my forty years of past struggle all those places in deserts, mountain, planes, all those fierce winters, merciless summers, and sad autumns, all those memories of tortures, torments. That overwhelm my mind and I appear in the sight of the questioner a picture of gloom covered with deep agony. There has not been a tongue that has not said. “What will you get for all this toil and labour”, and there has not been a head that has not nodded in disappoint, “Oh what a brain has he lost unavailable”.
Certain very important and every interesting hysterical experiences, and visions that have a bearing on the divine sanction of my mission I have with me to relate. And they are amazing. But even if I prefer to assume reticence on them, presenting only the works which I have produced, my end is served in this age of science. That phase has now come to an end. But another of greater difficulty now commences, namely that of the publication of the works which bear the bitter truth. Allah, however is great. He will not leave me alone. He will help me. How joyful I had felt on that night in 1942 in Musayyib near Baghdad in 1942, the night on which the Commission was allocated to me in a dream. But how little I had then realized that that was the last moment of joy in my life and thereafter there was nothing but grief and affliction that was to be my lot. If, however, my works that indeed are the most precious things in the world as the only light and guidance for this mankind to lead them out of the atomic doom, are published and availed, life indeed is sweet, but is not too great a sacrifice for such a mission.
