This is what was revealed at that time from the might of the Most High. O people, know that we have chosen the mother of Nuqtah al-Awla, and that she was one of the best female slaves mentioned before the Throne. And it was forbidden to give this name to others, as well as a number from the pen of the Most High in the Tablet of Judgment [390] which was preserved in the treasures of the protection of your Lord. And it is the best of women, and after that it is applied to the side of the point that did not depart from the fortress of infallibility and was not touched by the hands of the traitors, and so the matter was decided. And the one who betrayed is that she deviated from the point and severed her lineage from God, who decreed every matter in a clear tablet. Say: The polytheists thought that we wanted to abrogate what was revealed on the point of the statement. Say: By my Lord, the Most Merciful, if we want as they thought, no one has the right to object to God who created everything by order from Him, and that He has power over everything. And whatever we want is what God wanted, and what appears from me is what appears from him, and every knowledgeable monotheist testifies to that. But God wanted with this appearance to prove what was revealed from the point of the statement and to place his judgments on the necks of the Pharaohs from the scourge of tyranny, and his true self was a witness to that. And we wanted to sacrifice our souls for his cause, as he sacrificed himself for my sake. Fear God, O people, and do not lie about Him with whom the sun of eloquence has risen and whose judgment has appeared among all creatures! We will confirm its rulings and prove its effects on the earth with clear power and authority.
