The Hidden Words — Paragraph 47

Source (Arabic)

(٤٦) ﴿ يَا ابْنَ الإِنْسانِ ﴾ فَكِّرْ فِي أَمْرِكَ وَتَدَبَّرْ فِي فِعْلِكَ. أَتُحِبُّ أَنْ تَمُوتَ عَلَى الْفِراشِ أَوْ تُسْتَشْهَدَ فِي سَبِيلِي عَلَى التُّرابِ، وَتَكُونَ مَطْلِعَ أَمْرِي وَمَظْهَرَ نُوري فِي أَعْلَى الْفِرْدَوْسِ، فَأَنْصِفْ يا عَبْدُ.

Translation

(46) O SON OF MAN! Ponder and reflect. Is it thy wish to die upon thy bed, or to shed thy life-blood on the dust, a martyr in My path, and so become the manifestation of My command and the revealer of My light in the highest paradise? Judge thou aright, O servant!
