After going through the replies of Mr.Popat, i remembered an incident i red years back in a historical book, it was about the person who founded the first organization of killers in Islamic world, yes i am talking about Hasan bin Sabah.
In his early days, when we was preaching his false beliefs to the people, he was in voyage when the ship struck a storm, all the people around him were worried, but this guy sat their calmly and said this ship is not going to sink. He said he got this revelation from the Allah that because of his presence the ship will manage to survive.. and ship made it through the troubled waters, his close associate asked him, how did this happend, he said, to him you fool, if the ship had sank, there will be no soul left to tell others about his prophecy, but if the ship survived, we surely will get few people in our cult...
For the ref. one should look into the books on Saljooks, Fitn and Hasan bin Sabah
Yes and that's exactly what I have mentioned in my post to Mr. Popat, but i don't think its going to change his thinking stream much.
