Furthermore, it is most advantageous at this time to attract the Alevis to the fold of the Risale-i Nur so that the political currents that cause great harm to unity among the believers do not profit from their natural devotion and self-sacrifice and exploit them for themselves. Since Imam 'Ali (May God be pleased with him) is the Nur students' master and love of the Prophet's (UWBP) family is fundamental to the Risale-i Nur's way, it surely demands that true Alevis should enthusiastically enter the Risale-i Nur's fold.

Send my congratulations and greetings to that brother and tell him that the present is the time to save belief. Since at this time of innovations there are many problems and pitfalls in traversing the Sufi path while journeying with the heart, he may secure the benefits of those paths by following the way of reality within the fold of the Risale-i Nur. And let him pray for us. ∗∗∗

We accepted on account of the paradisaical Ramadan gift sent in the name of all the members of the Safranbolu and Eflâni Nur Schools, the congratulations written with the blessed pens of seven-year-old Yılmaz and thirteen-year-old Hüsnü and their respected mothers who work at the Risale-i Nur like themselves. They are the very hardworking young and innocent children in the tiny Nur School of Hıfzı, who is one of our sincere brothers in Safranbolu. Yılmaz's dream turned out exactly.

Part of the fine, sincere letter sent by Mustafa Sungur, who in truth is one of the young heroes of Eflâni, will be added to The Additional Letters. Indeed, Mustafa Osman finding the two namesakes and serious companions, Mustafa Oruç and Mustafa Sungur, to assist him in the Risale-i Nur's service seems like a wonder of his loyalty and success. I send my greetings to all those named in the letters of particularly Ahmed Fuad — the Hasan Feyzi of Safranbolu — and others, and I pray for them and congratulate them on their superhuman efforts. I send greetings to all our brothers. ∗∗∗

My Dear, Loyal Brothers !

Firstly: The Shining Lamp (Siracü 'n-Nur) has turned out beautifully and perfectly correct. It is a new lesson for the Medresetü'z-Zehrâ of the greatest importance which shall be read with interest within the sphere of the Risale-i Nur, God willing.
