numerous obstacles and it is impossible for thee to come in these times.
But verily, I pray my Lord to make this success feasible unto thee in a
future time. There is for this a mature wisdom concealed from sight, but
it shall appear as clear as the sun in midday.
As to thee, be rejoiced at the glad-tidings of thy Lord and trust in His
great gifts, the lights of which have shone forth upon the horizons of
hearts and souls, and trust in the assistance of thy Master, and ask what
thou wishest of the gifts of thy Lord, the Unconstrained! Draw nigh unto
Him with a pure heart, cheerful face, gazing eye and a joyful spirit and
plunge with thy whole being into the sea of the love of God and forget all
else save Him, so that thou mayest be filled with such spiritual
sentiments from the kingdom of God, which will take the reins of desire
from thy hands and move thee with the power of thy Lord, just as the wind
moveth a mote in the open air as it willeth. At that time we will draw
unto each other in spirit, a nearness which will be eternal, everlasting
and endless.
"O thou who art attracted to the Fragrances of God!..."
O thou who art attracted to the Fragrances of God!
Verily, I considered the meanings of thy beautiful words and found them as
a peerless, brilliant pearl, shining with a luster of the lights of the
love of God. God shall surely enable thee [to speak] in more eloquent and
wonderful words through a confirmation from the Spirit of the gift of
God.***
O maid-servant of God! Verily, the picture (photograph) is an indication
of what is in the heart of man. There are faces which are rejoiced and
brilliant like unto the garden of paradise and faces which are dusty and
dark and are covered with the dimness of fire.
Verily I beg of God that He may strengthen thee in whatever matter thou
mayest undertake and unto which thou mayest advance.
O maid-servant of God! Thy heart shall surely have attractions and
revelations through the power of the Beauty of El-ABHA, which will be
followed by glad-tidings and signs, in every minute and instant. Verily, I
reveal unto thee in spirit and address thee in heart, a speech which will
open unto thee the doors of mysteries which are concealed behind veils.
When mirrors become pure and the lights shine, the signs of the Sun of
Truth shall reflect therein with most wonderful splendors.
O maid-servant of God! Verily, I have not forgotten thee and will not
forget thee.
