Kitáb-i-Íqán — §110

Persian source with Shoghi Effendi’s authorized English translation. Paragraph 110 of 291.

Source (Persian)

و جميع اين صفات از ظهور اين جواهر احديّه ظاهر و هويدا است. واين صفات مختصّ به بعضی، دون بعضی نبوده و نيست. بلکه جميع انبيای مقرّبين و اصفيای مقدّسين به اين صفات موصوف و به اين اسماء موسوم اند. نهايت بعضی در بعضی مراتب اَشَدُّ ظُهُوراً وَ اَعظَمُ نوراً ظاهر می شوند. چنانچه می فرمايد: " تِلکَ الرُّسُلُ فَضَّلنَا بَعضَهُم عَلی بَعضٍ." پس معلوم و محقّق شد که محلّ ظهور و بروز جميع اين صفات عاليه و اسمای غير متناهيه انبياء و اوليای او هستند، خواه بعضی از اين صفات در آن هياکل نوريّه بر حسب ظاهر، ظاهر شود و خواه نشود. نه اين است که اگر صفتی بر حسب ظاهر از آن ارواح مجرّده ظاهر نشود نفی آن صفت از آن محالّ صفات الهيّه ومعادن اسماء ربوبيّه شود. لهذا بر همه اين وجودات منيره وطلعات بديعه حکم جميع صفات اللّه از سلطنت و عظمت وامثال آن جاری است اگر چه بر حسب ظاهر به سلطنت ظاهره و غير آن ظاهر نشوند. و اين فقره بر هر ذی بصری ثابت ومحقّق است، ديگر احتياج برهان نيست.

Shoghi Effendi Translation

These attributes of God are not and have never been vouchsafed specially unto certain Prophets, and withheld from others. Nay, all the Prophets of God, His well-favoured, His holy, and chosen Messengers, are, without exception, the bearers of His names, and the embodiments of His attributes. They only differ in the intensity of their revelation, and the comparative potency of their light. Even as He hath revealed: “Some of the Apostles We have caused to excel the others.” It hath therefore become manifest and evident that within the tabernacles of these Prophets and chosen Ones of God the light of His infinite names and exalted attributes hath been reflected, even though the light of some of these attributes may or may not be outwardly revealed from these luminous Temples to the eyes of men. That a certain attribute of God hath not been outwardly manifested by these Essences of Detachment doth in no wise imply that they Who are the Daysprings of God’s attributes and the Treasuries of His holy names did not actually possess it. Therefore, these illuminated Souls, these beauteous Countenances have, each and every one of them, been endowed with all the attributes of God, such as sovereignty, dominion, and the like, even though to outward seeming they be shorn of all earthly majesty. To every discerning eye this is evident and manifest; it requireth neither proof nor evidence.
