The Almighty God bestowed upon Musaylima the favor of another necessary and venerable book, entitled “the second Fárúk” to the commands of which it is indispensable to conform our actions. What Muhammed had revealed is all truth, and Musaylima, too, chose his way in that direction; if some precepts of the latter and his celestial book are contrary to the statements of Muhammed, it is because Musaylima survived Muhammed[5] (upon whom be peace!), and cancelled some of them by the command of God, as in like manner, during Mohammed’s life, some of his precepts have been obliterated. The man quoted from the heavenly book of Musaylima the following words: “Adopt the belief (O men!) that our God is the God of the world, and know, that he is the Creator of the universe and of its inhabitants; that he is above the creatures, none of whom is like him; say not, that he has no body; for it may be that he has a body, although not one like a body of his creatures: hand, eye, and ear of God are mentioned in the Furkán[6] which came from Muhammed; and what is stated in the first Fárúk, which is the book of Musaylima, is all truth; but the hand, the eye, and the ear of God are not like the hand and foot, and eye and ear of the creatures.

After Muhammed, his companions established by force that Kâbah should be the Kiblah. After Muhammed it was ordered by Musaylima, that turning the face towards the great
