‘He is the All Knowing Creator: when He wills something to be, His way is to say, “Be”- and it is!’ (36: 82-83).
‘The colouring of Allah and who is better than Allah in the matter of colouring?’ (2:139)
“I remember that on one occasion, in a state of vision, I saw that I had written certain divine decrees with my own hand setting out events in the future and then presented the paper to Allah the All-Powerful, Gloried be His name, for His signature. […] To the same Peerless and Self-Sufficient Being – Who manifested His attribute of Beauty to my mind in the state of vision and appeared to be God, the All-Powerful – I presented the document containing divine decrees for attestation. And He, Who was manifesting Himself in the form of a Ruler, dipped His pen in red ink and first flicked it in my direction and with the rest of the red ink which remained at the point of the pen He put His signature to the document.
“Thereupon,
the state of vision came to an end and when I opened my eyes to look at the
material world around me, I witnessed several red drops falling on my clothes.
Two or three of the drops also fell on the cap of one Abdullah of Sanaur
(Patiala State) who was, at the time, sitting close to me. Thus, the red ink
which was part of the vision materialised externally and became visible...” (Surma
Chashm-e-Arya, Ruhani Khazain, Vol. 2, pp. 179-180 footnote)
While
Ahmadis believe in the Sign of Red Drops, sceptics doubt whether it is really
possible at all. In this context, the Promised Messiah (as) writes:
“An uninitiated person will not understand this mystery. He will doubt it, because to him it will merely appear to be a matter of a dream. But one who has knowledge of spiritual phenomena cannot doubt that God can create something out of nothing in this very fashion. In short, I related the entire incident to Mian Abdullah; at that time tears were streaming down my eyes. Abdullah who is a witness to this was deeply moved and he acquired that shirt of mine as a holy relic which is still in his possession.” (Haqiqatul-Wahi [English], pp. 325-326)
Red Drops in the Early Days of the Divine Manifestation
Alhamdulillah Summa Alhamdulillah, several exceptional signs of Divine presence were witnessed in the early days of the present Divine Manifestation in Mauritius. Almost every member of the Jamaat [ at that time, Jamaat-e-Ahmadiyya Al Mouslemeen] received these mystical experiences and are alive even today. According to Hazrat Tayyebah Aliah Nasrine Saheba, "one of the first believers of the Divine Manifestation of this era in the times of Jamaat Ahmadiyya Al Mouslemeen also witnessed an extraordinary sign about the manifestation of red ink from Allah on her Niqab. It was the day of one of the conferences of the Djawharat-ul-Kamal, and she was in a rush as preparation was in full swing for the grand conference when she noticed at home on her Niqab some red ink droplets. She was amazed as the Niqab in question did not came into contact with any red pen and just appeared on her Niqab. Seeking a Divine Sign since long, she was marvelled and honoured when Allah and His Muhyiuddin confirmed that it was indeed the manifestation of Red Ink from Above. Alhamdulillah. May Allah grant Salvation to the true seekers of truth and grant forgiveness to all of us and approach with His Mercy His true and sincere servants. Ameen."
Red Drops in this Ramadan
By the sheer Will and
Grace of God, a similar Sign of Red Drops has just appeared in this holy month
of Ramadan 1444 AH, in the life and times of the present Khalifatullah Hazrat
Muhyiuddin Munir Ahmad Azim (aba) of Mauritius, Subhaan Allah, Alhamdulillah, Allahu Akbar!
‘Assamualaikum
Warahmatullahi Wabarkaatuhu
To my utter surprise, a great divine miracle and divine manifestation occurred at that moment, i.e., some drop of Red ink fell on my copybook that l was writing the Commentary on. Coming up on the rooftop, I witnessed another great manifestation of perfume which l cannot describe, and l called my Son and Ummul Mu’mineen Nasira Sahiba to witness the special divine manifestation.
Ummul Mu’mineen Nasira
Sahiba come and witnessed and took two photos immediately. And immediately l made
two Sajda and long Duah.’
Alhamdulillah,
Laila-tul
Qadr Mubarak,
Hazaar
Hazaar Mubarak!
Wassalaam,
Allah
Hafiz.
CONCLUSION
‘Read! Your Lord is the Most Bountiful One who taught by [means of] the pen, who taught man what he did not know.’ (96: 4-6)
‘By the pen! By all they write! Your Lord’s grace does not make you [Prophet] a madman: you will have a never-ending reward–– truly you have a strong character––and soon you will see, as will they, which of you is afflicted with madness. Your Lord knows best who strays from His path and who is rightly guided.’ (68: 2-8)

Just as the Promised Messiah Hazrat Mirza Ghulam Ahmad (as) of Qadian received Divine attestation for the divine decrees he was presenting to God Almighty in that spiritual vision, and the Divine Attestation physically manifested in the form of the Red Ink Drops in the previous era, the Red Drops on the Qur’an commentary- the copybook of Hazrat Khalifatullah (aba) in this holy month of Ramadan is an unmistakeable sign of Divine Attestation and endorsement for the project Al Azim Tafsirul Qur’an, Alhamdulillah, Summa Alhamdulillah. May Allah (swt) bless and strengthen the hearts of all those who are striving to realize this vital project in service of humanity, Insha Allah, Aameen.
