Line 1: Line 1:
By your glory, O my beloved, I became astonished at the manifestations of your craft and the revelations of your power. And I see myself incapable of knowing the least of your signs, and how to know yourself. Therefore, I ask You, O my God, by Your name with which You made lovers fly into the air of Your will and guided those longing for the pleasure of Your nearness and connection, to blow from Your good pleasure fragrances of reassurance upon those in distress among Your loved ones in those days when the winds of temptation surrounded them from all sides, so that souls were troubled from all sides. The power of Your decree, and the pillars of existence shook because of what descended upon them from the heavens of Your prestige, and their turmoil reached such a level that the lamps of Your love and remembrance almost extinguished in their hearts. And You are the Powerful over whatever You will, and You are the Forgiving, the Generous.
Do not commit what your minds and hearts hate. Fear God, O chiefs of believers! That they cut themselves off from the world and what is in it, and do not dispose of people's money except after their permission! Thus We revealed before [408] and then from the Mighty, the Beautiful. Be God's trustees in the country, so that if you train in the cities of gold, your eyes will not return to them. This is how it should be for you, O mullahs, of the monotheists. Help your Lord, the Most Merciful, with your deeds, so that they may find from you the scents of truth, the servants of God between the heavens and the earths! Create, people, with the morals of God and do not commit what you lose the sanctity of the manifestation of himself among his creatures! Likewise, God commanded you in the Tablets of Ezz Hafeez. Do not be exposed to anyone and do not argue with the same! If you find someone approaching, remind him of the word of the greatest, and if you find someone turning away from him, then turn to God your Lord, and He suffices you for the worlds.

Do not commit what your minds and hearts hate. Fear God, O chiefs of believers! That they cut themselves off from the world and what is in it, and do not dispose of people's money except after their permission! Thus We revealed before [408] and then from the Mighty, the Beautiful. Be God's trustees in the country, so that if you train in the cities of gold, your eyes will not return to them. This is how it should be for you, O mullahs, of the monotheists. Help your Lord, the Most Merciful, with your deeds, so that they may find from you the scents of truth, the servants of God between the heavens and the earths! Create, people, with the morals of God and do not commit what you lose the sanctity of the manifestation of himself among his creatures! Likewise, God commanded you in the Tablets of Ezz Hafeez. Do not be exposed to anyone and do not argue with the same! If you find someone approaching, remind him of the word of the greatest, and if you find someone turning away from him, then turn to God your Lord, and He suffices you for the worlds.
