the stones glorified Thee in the days of Muhammad, |
Thy Friend. |
These are the ones, |
O my God, |
whom Thou hast graciously enabled to have |
fellowship with Thee and to commune with Him Who is the Revealer of |
Thyself. |
The winds of Thy will have scattered them abroad until Thou didst |
gather them together beneath Thy shadow, |
and didst cause them to enter |
into the precincts of Thy court. |
Now that Thou hast made them to abide |
under the shade of the canopy of Thy mercy, |
do Thou assist them to attain |
what must befit so august a station. |
Suffer them not, |
O my Lord, |
to be |
numbered with them who, |
though enjoying near access to Thee, |
have been |
kept back from recognizing Thy face, |
and who, |
though meeting with Thee, |
are deprived of Thy presence. |
These are Thy servants, |
O my Lord, |
who have entered with Thee in this, |
the |
Most Great Prison, |
who have kept the fast within its walls according to |
what Thou hadst commanded them in the Tablets of Thy decree and the Books |
of Thy behest. |
Send down, |
therefore, |
upon them what will thoroughly purge |
them of all Thou abhorrest, |
that they may be wholly devoted to Thee, |
and |
may detach themselves entirely from all except Thyself. |
Rain down, |
then, |
upon us, |
O my God, |
that which beseemeth Thy grace and |

then, |
O my God, |
to live in remembrance of |
Thee and to die in love of Thee, |
and supply us with the gift of Thy |
presence in Thy worlds hereafter--worlds which are inscrutable to all |
except Thee. |
Thou art our Lord and the Lord of all worlds, |
and the God of |
all that are in heaven and all that are on earth. |
Thou beholdest, |
O my God, |
what hath befallen Thy dear ones in Thy days. |
Thy glory beareth me witness! |
The voice of the lamentation of Thy chosen |
ones hath been lifted up throughout Thy realm. |
Some were ensnared by the |
infidels in Thy land, |
and were hindered by them from having near access to |
Thee and from attaining the court of Thy glory. |
Others were able to |
approach Thee, |
but were kept back from beholding Thy face. |
Still others |
were permitted, |
in their eagerness to look upon Thee, |
to enter the |
precincts of Thy court, |
but they allowed the veils of the imaginations of |
Thy creatures and the wrongs inflicted by the oppressors among Thy people |
to come in between them and Thee. |
This is the hour, |
O my Lord, |
which Thou hast caused to excel every other |
hour, |
and hast related it to the choicest among Thy creatures. |
I beseech |
Thee, |
O my God, |
by Thy Self and by them, |
to ordain in the course of this |
