O Pen of the Most High, say: O multitudes of creation (al-insha'), we have ordained the Fast for you, certain limited days. After the completion of them we have made al-Nayruz (Nawruz) a feast for you. [Note 3] Thus has the Sun of Explanation shone from the horizon of the Book from before the presence of the Possessor of the Place of Beginning and Return.
And place prior to the month of fasting the (intercalary) days which are in excess of the months. [Note 1] We have, indeed, made them manifestations of al-ha' [Note 2] among the nights and days.
Therefore these five days are not included in the year and the months. It is fitting, then, that in them the People of Baha' (Splendour) feed themselves and their relatives, then the poor and poverty-stricken. They must exalt, magnify, praise, and glorify their Lord with joy and gladness.
And whenever the days of giving [Note 3] are completed, before the refraining (from food) let them enter upon the fast. So has the Master of Mankind (mawla al- anam) commanded.
This does not cause difficulty for the one who is on a journey, for the ill, for the pregnant woman, or the one who is nursing. God has exempted them as a Grace on His part.
He is the Mighty One, the Free Giver.
