THE SEVENTH: The phraseوَ مَثَلُهُمْ فِى اْلاِنْجِيلِ كَزَرْعٍ اَخْرَجَ شَطْاَهُ فَآزَرَهُ فَاسْتَغْلَظَ فَاسْتَوَى عَلَى سُوقِهِ يُعْجِبُ الزُّرَّاعَ لِيَغِيظَ بِهِمُ الْكُفَّارَ1 is the information about the ghayb in two aspects:

The First is giving information about the news given by the Injîl about the Sahâbah, and it was ghayb to the illiterate prophet (asm).

Yes, in the Injîl, there are âyahs, like مَعَهُ قَضِيبٌ مِنْ حَدِيدٍ وَاُمَّتُهُ كَذلِك2 that describe the attributes of the prophet (asm) who will come in the âkhirzaman. That is, a prophet who possesses a sword, unlike Hazrat ‘Îsâ (as), will come. He will be charged with jihâd, and his sahâbah, too, will have swords and be charged with jihâd. He will be the possessor of قَضِيبٌ مِنْ حَدِيدٍ3 and will be the head of ‘âlam because, in one passage of the Injîl, it says, "I am departing so that the head of ‘âlam will come." That is, the head of ‘âlam is coming. It means that it is understood from these two phrases of the Injîl that although at the beginning, sahâbah will appear to be few and weak, they will develop and grow like seeds, rise, thicken and strengthen, and at a time when they will cause kâfirs to drown by swallowing their rage, they will subjugate mankind to themselves with their swords and prove that their head, the prophet (asm), is the head of ‘âlam. It exactly expresses the meaning of the above âyah of surah al-Fath.
