This is the One Who hath been glorified by Muhammad, the
Apostle of God, and before Him by the Spirit and yet before Him by the One Who
discoursed with God. This is the Point
of the Bayán calling aloud before the Throne, saying: ‘By the righteousness of
God, ye have been created to glorify this Most Great Announcement, this Perfect
Way which lay hid within the souls of the Prophets, which was treasured in the
hearts of the chosen ones of God and was written down by the glorious Pen of
your Lord, the Possessor of Names.’
- Baha’u’llah (‘Tablets of Baha’u’llah
revealed after the Kitab-i-Aqdas’)
