Well is it with thee for having adorned thyself with the ornament of the love
of God and for having been enabled to make mention of Him and utter His praise.
Divine grace, in its entirety, is in the mighty grasp of God, exalted be He.
He conferreth it upon whomsoever He willeth. How many a man considered himself
a celebrated divine and a repository of heavenly mysteries, and yet when the
slightest test visited him, he arose with such opposition and denial as to
cause the Concourse on high to moan and lament. Through the bestowals of the
Lord, however, and His infinite favour, thou hast attained unto the hidden
secret and the well-guarded treasure. Preserve then, in the name of God, this
lofty station and conceal it from the eyes of betrayers. The glory shining
from the horizon of My Kingdom be upon thee and upon every handmaiden who hath
attained the splendours of My sublime Throne.
(From a Tablet - translated from the Persian and Arabic) [5] |
