Every
hand which setteth down His[1] Words with true faith shall be filled by God,
both in this world and in the next, with things that are highly prized; and
every breast which committeth His Words to memory, God shall cause, if it were
that of a believer, to be filled with His love; and every heart which
cherisheth the love of His Words and manifesteth in itself the signs of true
faith when His Name is mentioned, and exemplifieth the words, ‘their hearts are
thrilled with awe at the mention of God’, [Qur’án 8:2] that heart will become
the object of the glances of divine favour and on the Day of Resurrection will
be highly praised by God.
