His saying - may He be glorified -: I have heard your book, and what is in it is an essence. If it were not for what is in it, I would not have answered you on that piece of paper, not at that time with the highest value in creativity. How great is the remembrance of the one you have been asked about, and that is higher, mightier, more formidable, more forbidding, and more sacred than that the hearts are estimated by their gratitude, the souls by prostrating to Him, the souls by His praise, and the bodies by the remembrance of His splendor[209]. How great is your question and how small your being! Is the sun who is in the mirrors of his appearance in the point of clarification asked about the sun that those suns on the day of his appearance are carpets for her rising, if they are real suns, otherwise it is not necessary for her exaltedness and loftiness to be mentioned.
Say: At one time he calls himself by all names, and at another time he distances himself from it and from everything that was created between the heavens and the earth and from everything that was and will be. Say: All matters are in His grasp. He does whatever he wants by his command, and whoever says “why” and “by what” has disbelieved in God, the Powerful, the Dominant, the Ever-Living. Be afraid of God and do not follow the path of the first to turn away from God. Avoid it, then I ask forgiveness from your Lord, perhaps He will bestow on your reality what removes the scents of these people, and He is the Forgiving, the Compassionate. If you listen, then it is for yourself, and if you deny and turn away, then it is against it. Your Lord, the Most Merciful, has no need of what is in the universes, and He is the Most Holy, Exalted, the Exalted, the Exalted, the Praised.

Say: At one time he calls himself by all names, and at another time he distances himself from it and from everything that was created between the heavens and the earth and from everything that was and will be. Say: All matters are in His grasp. He does whatever he wants by his command, and whoever says “why” and “by what” has disbelieved in God, the Powerful, the Dominant, the Ever-Living. Be afraid of God and do not follow the path of the first to turn away from God. Avoid it, then I ask forgiveness from your Lord, perhaps He will bestow on your reality what removes the scents of these people, and He is the Forgiving, the Compassionate. If you listen, then it is for yourself, and if you deny and turn away, then it is against it. Your Lord, the Most Merciful, has no need of what is in the universes, and He is the Most Holy, Exalted, the Exalted, the Exalted, the Praised.
