Kitab-i-Iqan — Paragraph 94

Source (Persian)

و در مقام ديگر می فرمايد: "وَ قَد کَانَ فَريقٌ مِنهُمْ يَسمَعُونَ کَلامَ اللّهِ ثُمَّ يُحَرّفُونَهُ مِنْ بَعْدِ ما عَقَلُوهُ و هُم يَعْلَمُونَ." و اين آيه هم مُدلّ است بر تحريف معانی کلام الهی نه بر محو کلمات ظاهريّه چنانچه از آيه مستفاد می شود. و عقول مستقيمه هم ادراک می نمايد.

Translation

In yet another instance, He saith: “A part of them heard the Word of God, and then, after they had understood it, distorted it, and knew that they did so.” This verse, too, doth indicate that the meaning of the Word of God hath been perverted, not that the actual words have been effaced. To the truth of this testify they that are sound of mind.
