Kitab-i-Iqan — Paragraph 202

Source (Persian)

باری، چون معنی علم را ادراک ننمودهاند و افکار مجعوله خود را که ناشی از مظاهر جهل شده، اسم آن را علم گذاشته، بر مبدء علوم وارد آوردهاند آنچه ديده‌ايد و شنيده‌ايد.

Translation

Inasmuch as they have not apprehended the meaning of Knowledge, and have called by that name those images fashioned by their own fancy and which have sprung from the embodiments of ignorance, they therefore have inflicted upon the Source of Knowledge that which thou hast heard and witnessed.
