Upon Our arrival in ‘Iráq We found the Cause of God sunk in
deep apathy and the breeze of divine revelation stilled. Most of the believers
were faint and dispirited, nay utterly lost and dead. Hence there was a second
blast on the Trumpet, whereupon the Tongue of Grandeur uttered these blessed
words: ‘We have sounded the Trumpet for the second time.’ Thus the whole world
was quickened through the vitalizing breaths of divine revelation and
inspiration.

Kitab-i-Aqdas’)
