of Revelation and bewaileth the wrongs ye have committed in these days.
Fear God, and join not with the aggressor. Say: O people, should ye choose
to disbelieve in Him,(6) refrain at least from rising up against Him. By

142 Verily, He(7) revealed certain laws so that, in this Dispensation, the
Pen of the Most High might have no need to move in aught but the
glorification of His own transcendent Station and His most effulgent
Beauty. Since, however, We have wished to evidence Our bounty unto you, We
have, through the power of truth, set forth these laws with clarity and
mitigated what We desire you to observe. He, verily, is the Munificent,
the Generous.

143 He(8) hath previously made known unto you that which would be uttered
by this Dayspring of Divine wisdom. He said, and He speaketh the truth:
"He(9) is the One Who will under all conditions proclaim: ‘Verily, there
is none other God besides Me, the One, the Incomparable, the Omniscient,
the All-Informed.’" This is a station which God hath assigned exclusively
to this sublime, this unique and wondrous Revelation. This is a token of
His bounteous favour, if ye be of them who comprehend, and a sign of His
irresistible decree. This is His Most Great Name, His Most Exalted Word,
and the Dayspring of His Most Excellent Titles, if ye could understand.

guidance is made manifest. Reflect, O people, on that which hath been sent
down in truth; ponder thereon, and be not of the transgressors.

144 Consort with all religions with amity and concord, that they may
inhale from you the sweet fragrance of God. Beware lest amidst men the
flame of foolish ignorance overpower you. All things proceed from God and
unto Him they return. He is the source of all things and in Him all things
