Kitab-i-Iqan — Paragraph 215
Source (Persian)
و اين شرايط از صفات عالين و سجيّه روحانيّين است که در شرايط مجاهدين و مشی سالکين در مناهج علم اليقين ذکر يافت. و بعد از تحقّق اين مقامات برای سالک فارغ و طالب صادق، لفظ مجاهد درباره او صادق می آيد. و چون به عمل "و الّذين جَاهَدُوا فيِنا " مؤيّد شد البتّه به بشارت " لَنَهْدِيَنَّهُمْ سُبُلَنَا" مستبشر خواهد شد.
Translation
These are among the attributes of the exalted, and constitute the hall-mark of the spiritually-minded. They have already been mentioned in connection with the requirements of the wayfarers that tread the Path of Positive Knowledge. When the detached wayfarer and sincere seeker hath fulfilled these essential conditions, then and only then can he be called a true seeker. Whensoever he hath fulfilled the conditions implied in the verse: “Whoso maketh efforts for Us,” he shall enjoy the blessing conferred by the words: “In Our ways shall We assuredly guide him.”
