In truth I have created Thee through Thyself, then at My Own behest I have
fashioned all things through the creative power of Thy Word. We are
All-Powerful. I have appointed Thee to be the Beginning and the End, the
Seen and the Hidden. Verily We are the All-Knowing.
No one hath been or will ever be invested with prophethood other than
Thee, nor hath any sacred Book been or will be revealed unto any one
except Thee. Such is the decree ordained by Him Who is the
All-Encompassing, the Best Beloved.
The Bayan is in truth Our conclusive proof for all created things, and all
the peoples of the world are powerless before the revelation of its
verses. It enshrineth the sum total of all the Scriptures, whether of the
past or of the future, even as Thou art the Repository of all Our proofs
in this Day. We cause whomsover We desire to be admitted into the gardens
of our most holy, most sublime Paradise. Thus is divine revelation
inaugurated in each Dispensation at Our behest. We are truly the supreme
Ruler. Indeed no religion shall We ever inaugurate unless it be renewed in
the days to come. This is a promise We solemnly have made. Verily We are
supreme over all things...
"Say: Praise be to God Who graciously enableth whomsoever ..."
He is God, the Sovereign Lord, the All-Glorious.
Say: Praise be to God Who graciously enableth whomsoever He willeth to
adore Him. Verily no God is there but Him. His are the most excellent
titles; it is He Who causeth His Word to be fulfilled as He pleaseth and
it is He Who leadeth those who have received illumination and seek the way
of righteousness.
Fear thou God, thy Lord, and make mention of His Name in the day-time and
at eventide. Follow not the promptings of the faithless, lest thou be
reckoned among the exponents of idle fancies. Faithfully obey the Primal
Point Who is the Lord Himself, and be of the righteous. Let nothing cause
thee to be sore shaken, neither let the things which have been destined to
take place in this Cause disturb thee. Strive earnestly for the sake of
God and walk in the path of righteousness. Shouldst thou encounter the
unbelievers, place thy whole trust in God, thy Lord, saying, Sufficient is
God unto me in the kingdoms of both this world and the next.
The Day is approaching when God shall bring the faithful together. In
truth no God is there other than Him.
May the peace of God be with those who have been guided aright through the
