It has been revealed to my humble self that on account of my meekness, humility, trust in God, sincerity, and the signs and [heavenly] light, I resemble the Masih [Messiah] in his previous life; and that the nature of this humble one and the nature of the Masih greatly resemble each other, as if they are two pieces of the same jewel or two fruits of the same tree. The harmony between us is of such a great extent that there is very little that the spiritual eye can distinguish between us.
There also exists an overt resemblance which is that the Masih was the follower and servant of the faith of a perfect and high-standing Prophet, i.e. Musa (as) [Moses] and his Gospel is a branch of the Torah, and this humble one too, is one of the lowliest servants of that majestic Prophet who is Sayyidur-Rusul [the Chief of all Messengers] and the Crown of all Messengers. If they are Hamid [One who praises Allah], he is Ahmad [One who praises Allah to the utmost] and if they are Mahmud [One who is praised], he is Muhammad [One who is praised to the utmost] – may peace and blessings of Allah be upon him. Since my humble self has a complete resemblance with Hazrat Masih, the Benevolent God has, from the beginning, included this humble one in His prophecy about the Messiah.
