lowed the Prophet’s (UWBP) Sunna but relied on their visions, they have returned having gone half way. Becoming leaders of a community, they have founded sects. And being unable to preserve the proportion and balance of the Qur’anic truths, they have fallen into innovation and misguidance and driven a community of people down the wrong road. Thus, the complete impotence of all of them demonstrates the miraculousness of the Qur’an’s verses. ∗ ∗ ∗

Conclusion
Two flashes of the Qur’an’s miraculousness were mentioned in the Fourteenth Drop of the Nineteenth Word: its repetitions and brevity concerning the physical sciences, which are imagined to be faults, yet are both sources of flashes of miraculousness. Also, a flash of the Qur’an’s miraculousness which shines on the miracles of the prophets is demonstrated clearly in the Second Station of the Twentieth Word. Similarly to these, numerous flashes of miraculousness have been mentioned in others of the Words and in my Arabic treatises. Deeming those to be sufficient, here we shall say only this: a further miracle of the Qur’an is that just as all the prophets’ miracles display an impress of the Qur’an’s miraculousness, so together with all its miracles, is the Qur’an itself a miracle of the Prophet Muhammad (UWBP). And all the miracles of the Prophet Muhammad (UWBP) are a miracle of the Qur’an that demonstrate its relation with Almighty God. With the appearance of that relation, all of its words become miracles. For then a single of its words may contain the meaning of a tree of truths, like a seed; and may be connected with all the members of a mighty truth, like the centre of the heart; and since its relies on an all-encompassing knowledge and infinite will, it may look to innumerable things together with their letters, totalities, situations, and positions. It is because of this that the scholars of the science of letters claim that they have found a pageful of secrets in a single of the Qur’an’s letters, and they prove what they claim to adepts of that science.
Now, gather together in your mind’s eye all the Lights, Rays, Flashes, Beams, and Gleams from the start of this treatise up to here and consider them all together! As a decisive conclusion, they recite and proclaim in resounding tones the claim made at the beginning, that is,
