Also, consider the hardship and bitterness of those Manifestations who, without any visible supporter or helper, establish the laws of God before all the people of the earth. With all the harm that befalls their blessed and delicate beings, they endure with perfect strength, and with utmost dominance, they bear it.
Also, grasp the meaning of the transformation of the earth. The clouds of mercy from that sky transformed the lands of those hearts that had been receptive to the grace, into the land of knowledge and wisdom. How the fragrances of monotheism have sprouted in the gardens of their hearts, and how the anemones of the realities of knowledge and wisdom have been seen to bloom from their radiant breasts.  


Such figures, often appearing in the face of incredible adversity, struggle, and hardship, are remarkable in their ability to maintain their faith and persistence in delivering their divine messages. Despite the challenges and sometimes brutal conditions they face, these individuals remain steadfast, demonstrating their deep commitment to the divine and to the spiritual welfare of humanity.
If the earth of their hearts was not transformed, how could men who had never received any formal education, who had never seen a teacher, and who had never stepped foot in any school, articulate words and possess knowledge that no one else could comprehend? As if they were molded from the clay of eternal knowledge and kneaded with the water of Divine wisdom.  


These divine figures, like the prophets and messengers of various religions, are the embodiment of resilience and strength, constantly enduring suffering in the pursuit of a higher purpose. They remain undeterred by the trials and tribulations they face, and their strength and fortitude in the face of such challenges is a testament to their deep faith and their dedication to their divine missions.
This is what is meant when it is said: "Knowledge is a light that God casts into the heart of whomever He wishes." And it is this kind of knowledge that is praiseworthy and enduring. Not the limited sciences that are created from clouded and veiled thoughts, which are sometimes plagiarized and then boasted about to others.
