Persian source with Shoghi Effendi’s authorized English translation. Paragraph 101 of 291.

Source (Persian)

در اين وقت از اهل بيان و عرفاء و حکماء و علماء و شهدای آن استدعا می نمايم که وصايای الهی را که در کتاب فرموده فراموش ننمايند و هميشه ناظر به اصل امر باشند که مبادا حين ظهور آن جوهرالجواهر و حقيقة الحقائق و نور الانوار متمسّک به بعضی عبارات کتاب شوند و بر او وارد بياورند آنچه را که در کور فرقان وارد آمد. چه که آن سلطان هويّه قادر است بر اينکه جميع بيان و خلق آن را به حرفی از بدايع کلمات خود قبض روح فرمايد و يا به حرفی جميع را حيات بديعه قدميّه بخشد و از قبور نفس و هوی محشور و مبعوث نمايد. ملتفت و مراقب بوده که جميع منتهی به ايمان به او و ادراک ايّام و لقای او می شود. " لَيْسَ البِرَّ اَنْ تُوَلُّوا وُجُوهَکُم قِبَلَ المَشرِقِ والمَغرِبِ و لَکِنَّ الِبرَّ مَنْ آمَنَ بِاللّه و اليَومِ الآخرِ." اسمعوا يا اَهلَ البيان ما وَصَّيناکُم بالحقِّ لَعَلَّ تسکُنُنَّ فی ظِلٍّ کانَ فی اَيّام اللّه مَمدوداً.

Shoghi Effendi Translation

And now, We beseech the people of the Bayán, all the learned, the sages, the divines, and witnesses amongst them, not to forget the wishes and admonitions revealed in their Book. Let them, at all times, fix their gaze upon the essentials of His Cause, lest when He, Who is the Quintessence of truth, the inmost Reality of all things, the Source of all light, is made manifest, they cling unto certain passages of the Book, and inflict upon Him that which was inflicted in the Dispensation of the Qur’án. For, verily, powerful is He, the King of divine might, to extinguish with one letter of His wondrous words, the breath of life in the whole of the Bayán and the people thereof, and with one letter bestow upon them a new and everlasting life, and cause them to arise and speed out of the sepulchres of their vain and selfish desires. Take heed, and be watchful; and remember that all things have their consummation in belief in Him, in attainment unto His day, and in the realization of His divine presence. “There is no piety in turning your faces toward the east or toward the west, but he is pious who believeth in God and the Last Day.” Give ear, O people of the Bayán, unto the truth whereunto We have admonished you, that haply ye may seek the shelter of the shadow extended, in the Day of God, upon all mankind.
