HE is the Manifest, the Hidden, the All-Glorious, the All-Knowing, the Ever-Forbearing. “[…] Whatsoever proceeds from Thee and from Thy presence shines as brightly as the noonday Sun in the Heaven of Thy justice, whilst all else, even though it be among the treasures of Thy creation or of the quintessence of Thy handiwork, fades into utter nothingness. And inasmuch as Thou have assigned no partner unto Thyself, whatsoever is manifested from Thee has likewise no peer or equal. And even though Thou have shed upon all created things the effulgent Lights of Thy sublime singleness, and nothing proceeds from anything except it be manifested from Thee and be created at Thy behest, yet that which appears from Thine own Self excells and surpasses all else in Thy Heavens and on Thine Earth, and thus the tokens of Thy glorious sovereignty are revealed before the eyes of men and Thy testimony is fulfilled before all creation. Since Thy bounty has suffused the whole universe and the Lights of Thy countenance have illumined all created things, I beseech Thee by this Day, and by the hearts which Thou have made to be the repositories of Thy knowledge and inspiration and the treasuries of Thy revelation and recognition, to grant that the signs of Thine undisputed ascendancy may shine above the horizon of Thy command, that the showers of Thy surpassing mercy may rain from the Heaven of Thy grace, and that the tokens of Thy deliverance may appear through the operation of Thy sovereign Will. Thus may Thy friends be released from the clutches of Thy foes, and Thy loved ones delivered from the hands of the wayward among Thy servants, that they may extol Thee, O Lord, with ringing voices in the supernal realms of Thy names and worship Thee with their entire beings in the kingdom of Thine attributes. And thus may Thy Name be exalted, Thy testimony established, Thy proof vindicated, Thy favor completed, Thy bounty fulfilled, Thy verses promulgated, and Thy signs expounded, in such wise that the entire world may be filled with the Light of Thy countenance and all dominion may be Thine alone. No GOD is there but Thee, the Omnipotent, the Almighty, the All-Powerful, the All-Compelling. […]”
