rning Bush.'... O peoples of the earth! Inflict not upon the Most Great Remembrance what the Umayyads cruelly inflicted upon Husayn in the Holy Land. By the righteousness of God, the True One, He is indeed the Eternal Truth, and unto Him God, verily, is a witness. _Chapter XVII._ "God had, in truth, proposed Our Mission unto the ..." God had, in truth, proposed Our Mission unto the heavens and the earth and the mountains, but they refused to bear it and were afraid thereof. However, Man, this 'Ali, Who is none other but the Great Remembrance of God, undertook to bear it. Hence God, the All-Encompassing, hath referred to Him in His Preserved Book as the 'Wronged One', and by reason of His being undistinguished before the eyes of men, He hath, according to the judgement of the Book, been entitled 'the Unknown'...(55) Erelong We will, in very truth, torment such as waged war against Husayn [Imam Husayn], in the Land of the Euphrates, with the most afflictive torment, and the most dire and exemplary punishment.... God knoweth well the heart of Husayn, the heat of His burning thirst and His long-suffering for the sake of God, the Incomparable, the Ancient of Days; and unto Him God is verily a witness. _Chapter XII._ "Hearken unto the Voice of Thy Lord calling from ..." Hearken unto the Voice of Thy Lord calling from Mount Sinai, 'Verily there is no God but Him, and I am the Most Exalted One Who hath been veiled in the Mother Book according to the dispensations of Providence.' _Chapter XIX._ "This Book which We have sent down is indeed abounding ..." This Book which We have sent down is indeed abounding in blessings(56) and beareth witness to the Truth, so that the people may realize that the conclusive Proof of God in favour of His Remembrance is similar to the one wherewith Muhammad, the Seal of the Prophets, was invested, and verily great is the Cause as ordained in the Mother Book. _Chapter LXVI._ "This Remembrance is indeed the glorious Remnant of ..." This Remembrance is indeed the glorious Remnant of the Light of God, and He will be best for you,(57) if ye in very truth remain faithful to God, the Most Exalted... We have in truth sent Thee forth unto all men, by the leave of God, invested with Our signs and reinforced by Our unsurpassed sovereignty. He is indeed the appointed Bearer of the Trust of God... O Qurratu'l-'Ayn! Persevere steadfastly as Thou art bidde
