That is an example of why many of `Abdu'l-Baha's interpretations of prophecy do not make sense to me, and why I can only accept them on faith. In order to get 1260 years from 3 1/2 days, you have to do a double days-to-years conversion. First you change 3 1/2 days to 3 1/2 years. Then you make 3 1/2 years (1260 days) into 1260 years.
