935.3.8

"May the Most High ever allot to thee and to me tidings as joyful! So may it be, O Lord of the two worlds!" "Thou sayest thou hast called him Al-amān; God bless and prosper this! Thou writest it so thyself (_i.e._ Al-amān), but hast over-looked that common people mostly say _alāmā_ or _aīlāmān_.[2352] [Sidenote: Fol. 348b.] Besides that, this _Al_ is rare in names.[2353] May God bless and prosper him in name and person; may He grant us to keep Al-amān (peace) for many years and many decades of years![2354] May He now order our affairs by His own mercy and favour; not in many decades comes such a chance as this!"[2355]
