Dream 7
THE LINE OF ENTRENCHMENTS
On the 17th of the month Khusrawi, of the year Sarab, 1217, from the birth of Muhammad, at Salamabad', I had a dream: The army of the Sarkar-i-Ahmadi seemed to have built a line of entrench ments for besieging a fort within which were the progeny of Nizam Ali Khan and the son of Basalat Jang. The people within the fort were sueing for mercy. I had planned excellent strategems and I was looking after the line of entrenchments. At this stage I woke up.
I had this dream while resting before the departure of Qutbuddin Khan and Ali Raza to Nizam Ali Khan.
Dream 8
THE SACRED RELICS FROM HADRAT BANDAH-NAWAZ
On the 5th of the month Raz Thamari, of the year Shata, corresponding to the 3rd Shawwal, 1218, from the birth of Muhammad, on Thursday, while return ing to Patan, the Capital, at Salamabad, I had a dream:
I saw coming two aged holy persons, both being brothers, with baggage and provisions. They told me they had come according to the orders of Hadrat Bandah-nawaz who had sent certain sacred relics. Then they gave me a few pieces from the covers of the Ka'bah, the Madinah-i-Munawwarah and the tomb of Hadrat Bandah-nawaz, a copy of the Holy Qur'an and some sugar-candy. I took the sacred relics and raised them to my head. I then opened the Qur'an and found it was written in a beautiful hand. Every page of the Qur'an had the name of the scribe written on it. On some of the pages noticed the names of Hadrat Bandah Nawaz and other saints. Both the holy persons said to me that this copy of the Holy Qur'an had been written by several saints and calligraphists and that Hadrat Bandah-nawaz used to recite constantly from this copy. The saint had done a great favour, they added, by sending this copy for me. They also pointed out that they themselves were from among the descendants of Hadrat Bandah-nawaz and it was their custom to recite the Fatihah at his tomb and to offer sacrifices around it. Then I read those verses (of the Holy Qur'an) which had been inscribed in fine handwriting on the gate of the tomb.
At this point I woke up. The same afternoon I offered Fatihah in the name of Hadrat Bandah-nawaz on eleven cauldrons of sweets.
