"This Book which We have sent down is indeed abounding ..."
This Book which We have sent down is indeed abounding in blessings(56) and beareth witness to the Truth, so that the people may realize that the conclusive Proof of G.o.d in favour of His Remembrance is similar to the one wherewith Mu?ammad, the Seal of the Prophets, was invested, and verily great is the Cause as ordained in the Mother Book. _Chapter LXVI._
"This Remembrance is indeed the glorious Remnant of ..."

We have in truth sent Thee forth unto all men, by the leave of G.o.d, invested with Our signs and reinforced by Our unsurpa.s.sed sovereignty. He is indeed the appointed Bearer of the Trust of G.o.d...
O Qurratu'l-'Ayn! Persevere steadfastly as Thou art bidden and let not the faithless amongst men nor their utterances grieve Thee, since Thy Lord shall, by the righteousness of G.o.d, the Most Great, pa.s.s judgement upon them on the Day of Resurrection, and surely G.o.d witnesseth all things.
_Chapter Lx.x.xIV._
"This Religion is indeed, in the sight of G.o.d, the essence ..."
This Religion is indeed, in the sight of G.o.d, the essence of the Faith of Mu?ammad; haste ye then to attain the celestial Paradise and the all-highest Garden of His good-pleasure in the presence of the One True G.o.d, could ye but be patient and thankful before the evidences of the signs of G.o.d. _Chapter XLVIII._
"O My servants! This is G.o.d's appointed Day which the ..."

Verily G.o.d hath granted leave to His Remembrance to say whatsoever He willeth in whatever manner He pleaseth. Indeed whatsoever He chooseth is none other than what is chosen by Us. The Lord, in truth, witnesseth all things. _Chapter Lx.x.xVII._
"Indeed We conversed with Moses by the leave of G.o.d ..."
Indeed We conversed with Moses by the leave of G.o.d from the midst of the Burning Bush in the Sinai and revealed an infinitesimal glimmer of Thy Light upon the Mystic Mount and its dwellers, whereupon the Mount shook to its foundations and was crushed into dust...
O peoples of the earth! I swear by your Lord! Ye shall act as former generations have acted. Warn ye, then, yourselves of the terrible, the most grievous vengeance of G.o.d. For G.o.d is, verily, potent over all things. _Chapter LIII._
"O Qurratu'l-'Ayn! I recognize in Thee none other ..."
O Qurratu'l-'Ayn! I recognize in Thee none other except the 'Great Announcement'-the Announcement voiced by the Concourse on high. By this name, I bear witness, they that circle the Throne of Glory have ever known Thee.
O concourse of the believers! Do ye harbour any doubt as to that whereunto the Remembrance of G.o.d doth summon you? By the righteousness of the One true G.o.d, He is none other than the sovereign Truth Who hath been made manifest through the power of Truth. Are ye in doubt concerning the Bab?
Verily He is the One Who holdeth, by Our leave, the kingdoms of earth and heaven in His grasp, and the Lord is in truth fully aware of what ye are doing...
Indeed I am but a man like unto you. However, G.o.d bestoweth upon Me whatever favours He willeth as He pleaseth, and that which your Lord hath decreed in the Mother Book is unbounded. _Chapter Lx.x.xVIII._
"G.o.d, of a truth, revealed unto Me in the sacred house of ..."
G.o.d, of a truth, revealed unto Me in the sacred house of the Ka'bah, 'Verily, I am G.o.d, no G.o.d is there but Me. I have singled Thee out for Myself and have chosen Thee as the Remembrance. Indeed, whosoever beareth allegiance unto Thee by walking in the way of the Bab, for him the recompense of the next world hath surely been prescribed...' It is ordained in the Book that upon the realization of the Cause of the Remembrance, the Most Great Event will have come to pa.s.s according to the dispensation of Providence, and G.o.d, truly, is potent over all things.
_Chapter LXXIX._
"O Qurratu'l-'Ayn! Say: Verily I am the One Who is ..."
O Qurratu'l-'Ayn! Say: Verily I am the One Who is hailed in the Mother Book as the 'Great Announcement'. Say: The people have grievously differed over Me, whereas in truth there is no difference between Me and the Bab; and G.o.d, the Eternal Truth, is sufficient witness. _Chapter LXXVII._
"I Am the Mystic Fane which the Hand of Omnipotence ..."
I am the Mystic Fane which the Hand of Omnipotence hath reared. I am the Lamp which the Finger of G.o.d hath lit within its niche and caused to s.h.i.+ne with deathless splendour. I am the Flame of that supernal Light that glowed upon Sinai in the gladsome Spot, and lay concealed in the midst of the Burning Bush. _Chapter XCIV._
