Firishta's History (Gulshan-i Ibrāhīmī) 37.2.7

37.2.7

religion is the law of God, whose spirit inspired his prophets, but it depends not on the opinions of mortals. We are taught by God's holy word to believe, that the spirit of prophecy ended with Mahomed, the last and greatest of his messengers. This being acknowledged by great and small, by all nations, and by all degrees of people, should your intentions against the true faith be once known, it is impossible to conceive what hatred you will incur, and what bloodshed and disturbance may ensue. It is, therefore, advisable, that you should set aside these new notions, since the accomplishment of your views exceeds the power of mere mortals. Did not Chungiz Khan, the most powerful of monarchs, and his successors, labour for ages to subvert our faith, that they might establish their own? What rivers of blood have flowed in the contest!
