"O PEOPLES of the earth! Verily the true God calleth ..."

1 |
O PEOPLES of the earth! Verily the true God calleth
saying: He Who is the Remembrance is indeed the
sovereign Truth from God, and naught remaineth beyond
truth but error,
[1]
and naught is there beyond error save fire,
irrevocably ordained...

O Qurratu'l-`Ayn! Point to Thy truthful breast through
the power of truth and exclaim: I swear by the One true
God, herein lieth the vicegerency of God; I am indeed the
One Who is regarded as the Best Reward
[2]
and I am indeed
He Who is the Most Excellent Abode. Chapter LXXII.
