” Mir Sayyid ‘Ali answered, “ They are possible, and they are not contrary to reason.” Mirza Nizamu-’d-din Ahmad said, “ It may be that a jinn appeared in the outward form of the Martyr.” The Mir said, “A jinn has not the power to appear in the semblance of the bodies of prophets, saints, pious men, and martyrs.” The death of the Mir occurred in the year H. 1002 (A.D. 1593-94), or H. 1003 (A.D. 1594-95). One of the learned men of the time found that the words, “ The religious leader of mankind,” gave the date of his death. The Mir's worthy son, Mir Sayyid Mahmud, has succeeded him.
