Grant me one! When I raised my hands in moving supplication, the whole heaven was full of my wailing and my prayers. Then God, in His infinite mercy, granted my prayers and conferred upon me His choicest blessings, and He, from His majesty, gave me a pious, sincere and obedient friend and his name, like his nooraani qualities, was Noor-ud- Deen." [Translation from the Arabic portion of Aa’eena-i-Kamaalaat-i-Islam, pp. 581-586 by Hadhrat Mirza Ghulam Ahmadas] "As soon as I got the handbill of Braaheen-i-Ahmadiyya (in 1885) of Hadhrat Mirza Sahib, I immediately left for Qadian... "It was after Asr Prayer, I approached Masjid Mubarak. As soon as I saw his face, I was overjoyed, and felt happy and grateful to have found the perfect man that I was seeking all my life... "At the end of the first meeting, I offered my hand for Bai‘at. Hadhrat Mirza Sahib said, he was not yet Divinely commissioned to accept Bai‘at; then I made Mirza Sahib promise me that I would be the person whose Bai‘at would be accepted first...."

No book can fully capture the spiritual and many faceted personality of Hadhrat Khalifatul Masih Ira. The Promised Messiahas who knew him best described his personality as follows in his Arabic book, Hamaamatul Bushra, (page 6): Among my many pious friends, there is one far-sighted, gifted with vast knowledge, soft spoken, polite, steadfast in faith, God-fearing, trusting, a savant, pious, scholar, devout, saintly spiritual, towering Muhaddith (scholar of Hadith), outstanding Hakeem, Haaji-ul-Haramain, Haafiz-i- Qur’an, an offspring of Farooq. His name is Maulavi Noor-ud-Deen Bhervi. In sincerity, devotion, dedication, loyalty and love, he is formost among my followers. The famous Persian couplet that appeared in another book, Nishaan-i-Aasmaani (page 47) appropriately epitomized the excellences of Hadhrat Khalifatul Masih Ira: How fortunate would it be if everyone of the Community (Ummat) were Noor-ud-Deen! To know the depth of the feelings of Hadhrat Khalifatul Masih Ira, the commentary of Surah Al-Jumu‘ah by Hadhrat Khalifatul Masih Ira, explains why he settled in Qadian: The brief reply is, I found such an unprecedented wealth here, that no thief and no robber can steal it. I found that for which people for the last thirteen hundred years xiii Foreword have been yearning. Why should I abandon a place of unlimited wealth and wander around in this material world? I truly say if I am given one lakh (one hundred thousand) rupees or even a crore (ten million), even then I will not leave Qadian except in compliance of the wishes of my Imam.
