“I saw in the state of being awake, that just like when there is lightening and it brightens the surroundings from one end to the other, a light appeared and enveloped the world from one extreme to the other. Then I observed one part of this light gather up and turn into words. A majestic sound boomed out in the atmosphere, which appeared to be made from this light, and it was BUSHRA LAKUM…(glad tidings upon you). I was made to understand that the light I saw that day was the light of the Holy Quran which was being spread through the world by the Taleemul Quran and Waqfe Arzi schemes. Allah will bless this enterprise and the blessings of the Quran will envelope the world just as that light was seen to envelope the world. Allah be praised for this.

(Friday Sermon, Al Fazl, 10th August 1966)
