BB00515: Letter concerning the Nubuwwat al-Khassa

He is the Mighty

Praise and glory befit that Most Holy Being Who hath ever existed through the reality of His Most Holy Essence, and no being hath been mentioned with Him in His holy sanctuary, and Who will forever exist through the sovereignty of His Essence, and no being is mentioned with Him at the level of the pre-existence of His Essence. How transcendent is His station, for in every age there have been manifestations of His grace from His Presence who have related naught but His justice, and how mighty is His power, for in every era there have been manifestations of His mercy in His dominion who have indicated naught but His power.

Among these is the binding command of His Honor—may God prolong his glory—which hath become the cause of the appearance of these published pages. It is hoped from the grace of the All-Bountiful Lord and the special favors of His Honor—may God perpetuate his prosperity—that these draft pages will prove acceptable to the sanctified minds, both in meaning and expression, until such time as the prescribed copies are published in the finest calligraphy in that grace-bestowing presence, and become the cause for manifesting gratitude’s inability to thank His Honor for his bounties and serve as a reminder of Abdullah’s matter which is imprinted in the mirror of his luminous thoughts, so that it may never be erased from his radiant mind.
