And as for your question about the branches (Aghsán) of God and His offshoots (Afnán), it was presented in the Most Sacred Presence. It was stated that, so far, what has been mentioned about the Afnán from the Highest Pen refers to the souls associated with the Primal Point, because in this manifestation we have called everyone to the highest horizon and guided them to the greatest sea. In the early days, a special supplication for them was revealed, and in that supplication, the success of faith and recognition was ordained for them. God willing, they may act according to what God wills and remain steadfast and firm on this greatest matter. Blessed are they, for we have named them with this name from which the fragrance of the Merciful emanates in existence, and we have attributed them to this Lote Tree as a bounty from Us upon them. Ask God to protect them from the insinuations of the people and the suspicions of knowledge, and We have preferred some of them over others in Our book, which none but God, the Lord of the Worlds, has insight into. Soon, what has been predestined for them by the all-knowing Planner will appear, and the souls now attributed to the Lote Tree are mentioned among those close in the book of names. If they act according to what God wills, blessed are they for they have approached and succeeded, and it is for them to ask God to preserve them and grant them success in steadfastness in their state. Today is the day when all souls must strive to succeed with the word of acceptance from the Owner of Names. The intention regarding the branches (Aghsán) pertains to the existing branches, but in the primary rank were the two greatest branches, and the souls are counted after the fruits and leaves. There has been and is no right for the branches in the wealth of the people. The end. And this blessed verse had been mentioned, His saying, may His glory be exalted, 'Refer ye whatsoever ye understand not in the Book to Him Who hath branched from this mighty Stock.' The intention from the Book is the Most Holy Book, and 'the branch which hath branched' means a branch.
