Published by the Promised Messiah^(as) in 1897, Siraj-e-Munir (The Shining Lamp) contains numerous grand Signs and prophecies affirming the truth and Divine support of his claims. He cites the example of various religious leaders who openly denied God’s Signs and were punished with terrible humiliation.

In contrast to these adversaries, the Promised Messiah^(as) includes his correspondence with the celebrated sufi saint, Khawajah Ghulam Farid^(ra) of Chachran, highlighting their mutual admiration for each other. Magnificent poetic verses extolling the virtues of God and the Holy Prophet(sa) adorn its pages.

The book derives its name from the Quranic reference to the Holy Prophet Muhammad, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, likening him to the radiant sun whose brilliant rays have the life-giving power to illuminate the hearts of peoples and nations.
