It is firmly established that in each subsequent divine manifestation, the sun of knowledge, rulings, commands, and prohibitions that were exalted in the previous manifestation, under whose light and shade the people of that era were enlightened and guided, becomes dark. This means that its ruling and effect come to an end.
Now, step onto the path of true certainty with the eye of knowledge of certainty and the wings of the essence of certainty. "Say, 'God,' then leave them in their discourse, playing." So that you may be counted among those who say, "Indeed, those who have said, 'Our Lord is Allah,' and then remained on a right course, the angels will descend upon them." And so that you may witness all of these mysteries with your own eyes.
 
Consider, then, if the followers of the Gospel had understood the intended meaning of the sun and the moon, or had sought clarification from the manifestation of divine knowledge without obstinacy or quarreling, they would undoubtedly have understood its meanings, and they would not have fallen prey to the darkness of self and desire. However, because they did not draw knowledge from its source and origin, they fell into the destructive valley of disbelief and misguidance and have met their ruin. They have yet to realize that the universal signs have appeared, and the promised sun has dawned on the horizon of manifestation, while the sun and moon of knowledge, rulings, and recognitions from the previous era have become dark and set.
