plioo which my purport their oubai B r.ion to the uublirae odu
Ottora* ^ov.irnmni. In re the ollusione aade by you in the
letter to the effect that the people are afraid of their
property *hicn i« under the protection of the Knglioh
(pleaim note) that thor e are imbecile fancies and vain
diabolical suggestion© because if the people of Kadraiaaut
are considered once and for all to be under the protection
of the Uubliiae Ottoman Govemtaent then it will be inspot)'*
eible for them to looe anything at all # becauB« the Ottoman
Oovernjaent ^ould guarantee to protect them in all respects.
They should,therefore,remove those whiras froia their minds
entirely, The Bublime Government are attacking the enemies
at the present yjjoment and are winning the battle in every
place with the help of all the Arab 2 k>sloop and others with
their souls and substance .Those trtio may be in your direo-
tion and are anxious to participate in the declaration of
the sacred Jihad then (they must understand) that it is their
bo unden duty. At the present moment there is no necessity
for help in men because there ip a sufficient number of
soldiers. Your stay in Hadramaut for the purpose of guiding
the people to the proper path of nature and making them
understand of #hat is incumbent upon them is more useful
and more suitable. This is an ample help to us

We think you and request God to consolidate the word
of this nation on the principle of mnat He has coixmnded
and forbade.
