If I say that it is one, then it is one of the names. And if I say that it is the morning, then the morning of that name is my name. And if I say that he is holy, then he is the one who is manifested by that name. And if I say that it is dear, it means that it is dear. And if I say that he is beloved, the thought of the beloved is the height of passion in his mystical love and the glory of his glory. And if I say that he is sovereign, then he is the one who argues on the Day of Resurrection that God is sovereign over everything. And if I say that I am Qayyum, then that is the manifestation of one of me, the consistency of oneness. Fataali is the exaltation of memory, then the exaltation of dignity. The Persian meaning of this is that if we say that he is one, then this unit is one of his names. If we say that he is Sabbuh, the origin of this name is one of his names [366]. If we say that he is holy, he is such a soul that has manifested and says by this name to those like him. And if we say that he is dear, every dear person is prostrate because of his glory. And if we say that he is beloved, every beloved will split the curtain of his heart in his friendship and love. And if we say that he is sovereign, then he is the ruler that every soul who argues because of him on the day of his appearance will prove that he is sovereign over all things at his command. And if we say that he is a guardian, then it is the manifestation of one of the guardians of his oneness.
