24 Preface قُل هُوَ الَّذي ذَرَأَكُم فِي الأَرضِ وَإِلَيهِ تُحشَرونَYusuf AliSay: “It is He Who has multiplied you through the earth,1 and to Him shall ye be gathered together.”Mankind, from one set of parents, has been multiplied and scattered through the earth. Men have not only multiplied in numbers, but they have developed different languages and characteristics, inner and outer. But they will all be gathered together at the End of Things, when the mischief created by the wrong exercise of man’s will will be cancelled, and the Truth of God will reign universally.
