Editing Kitab-i-Aqdas/Elder166

Remember the Doctor (al-shaykh) who was called Muhammad Qabl Hasan. He was one of the most learned of the learned men of his age. When the True One was manifested he turned away from Him, he and those like him, but he who winnows the wheat and the barley came to God. The Doctor wrote, [note 1] so he claimed, the commandments of God by night and day, but when the Chosen One came, not a letter of them was of benefit to him. Had there been benefit to him, he would not have turned away from a Face by which the faces of those brought near (to God) were illumined. If you have believed on God at the time of His Manifestation, the people would not have turned away from Him, and what you see to-day would not have befallen Us. Fear God and be not of the careless.
