I swear by the life of Him Whom God shall make manifest! My
Revelation is indeed far more bewildering than that of Muhammad, the Apostle of
God, if thou dost but pause to reflect upon the days of God. Behold, how
strange that a person brought up amongst the people of Persia should be
empowered by God to proclaim such irrefutable utterances as to silence every
man of learning, and be enabled to spontaneously reveal verses far more rapidly
than anyone could possibly set down in writing. Verily, no God is there but
Him, the Help in Peril, the Self-Subsisting.
