This book belongs to the category of the Promised Messiah’s books which had been painstakingly compiled and is the product of much attention and deep research.
Explaining the reason for writing this book, Hazrat Mirza Ghulam Ahmad (as) said:
"In this age, where diverse kinds of mischiefs are taking place and certain unfounded innovations are coming into existence, another mischief is becoming common. Often people are not aware what type and character of dream and vision should be relied upon and under what circumstances. Some of the visions or dreams are products of evil minds and a result of evil agencies...One of the chief distinctive features of a true dream and vision is that God showers numerous blessings on that man." (Haqiqatul-Wahi, p. 1, Ruhani Khaza’in, vol. 22, pp. 3-4)
This book is one of the remarkable contributions of Hazrat Mirza Ghulam Ahmad (as) in which, in the light of the Holy Quran, and by citing two hundred signs which had been fulfilled at his hand and were witnessed by a number of people, Hazrat Mirza Ghulam Ahmad (as) gave a lucid illustration of dreams, visions and revelations.
In this book the Promised Messiah, on whom be peace, discusses the philosophy of divine revelation, the three categories of people who claim to receive revelation, and the distinction of the truthful from the false. He then establishes his truthfulness by documenting over 200 Signs, including the fulfilment of prophecies made by the Holy Prophet Muhammad, may peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, other men of God, earlier scriptures, and his own revelations spanning over twenty-five years.
The author cites numerous examples of his enemies who publicly predicted his downfall and demise, only to become the very victims of their own prophecies. God, however, protected him against every assault, while continuously reassuring him of His promise to bless his Community—a promise which continues to bear the seal and testimony of history.
The author also appeals to the followers of different faiths to read this book cover to cover to appreciate and accept this evidence as proof that God is One and the Holy Prophet Muhammad is the Messenger of God, and that he is the Promised Messiah raised to unite humanity under the banner of Islam.
