e for God, which (love) impresseth the souls and
dilateth the breasts and which causeth thy heart to become filled with the
knowledge of God and overflow with the favor of God.

I ask God to make thee a sign of mercy and an exemplar of servitude to the
Sublime Threshold.

Thank God for saving thee from baseness, trouble, selfishness and death,
and [that He] took away the veil from before thine eyes, manifested unto
thee the Beauty of El-ABHA, granted thee healing, planted in thy heart the
seed of love and thereby chose thee from among the maid-servants.
Therefore, endeavor so that thou dedicate (thyself) entirely to God; no
thought or mention should remain in thee save the name of thy Supreme
Lord. Endeavor so that those countries become illumined by the light of
the gift of God.

Embrace the light of thine eyes (thy son) on my behalf in the Kingdom of
God.

"O maid-servant of God!..."

O maid-servant of God!

Thy letter was received and its content read. Thank God that thou wast
guided by the light of guidance and attracted to the Kingdom of ABHA.
Serve God day and night and seek happiness from His name. Although thou
hast met with many difficulties and passed through many trials, yet thou
must thank God that thou didst attain to the light of guidance and
directed thyself to the Kingdom of Glory.

I hope that thou mayest be a cause of guidance to people and that thou
mayest seek absolute spirituality. Train thy dear son in such a manner
that he will attain the illumination of the Kingdom, will become a true
servant of God, a light of love and a radiance of harmony.

O thou who art enkindled with the fire of the Love of God!

Thank thou thy revered friend and thy attracted (spiritual) sister who
hath guided thee to this right path and given thee to drink the choice
wine of knowledge from the cheerful cup. Wert thou duly informed of this
divine bounty, thou wouldst kneel down and prostrate thyself before her
for this great gift. For, verily, thou wert athirst and she was a clear
running fountain. Thank thou God for that He hath favored thee with her
meeting, that thou art benefited by her clouds and sought light from her
lamp. Wert thou to expend all that is in the earth, thou wouldst not
appreciate her due value. Glorified is He who hath enabled her to illumine
thine insight, to purify thy heart, to dilate thy breast and to sanctify
