Part One<br />
The spectacular panorama of the universe constantly<br />
proclaims that:<br />
There is One who laid its foundation and built it up.<br />
He has no associate and no partner,<br />
There is none to interfere in His work, or to share His<br />
secrets.<br />
prevail over every other faith. his followers are cleansed of every kind<br />
of shirk [polytheism], innovation and transgression. his shariah excels<br />
in every verity, wisdom and proof. he is the devoted servant whom<br />
You created for Your love and [for establishing] Your oneness. You<br />
made the remembrance of Your holiness and Your glory dearer to him<br />
than his own self. You sent him as the ‘Mercy for all the worlds,’ a living<br />
argument against the disbelievers, a shining lamp for seekers after<br />
truth, a beckoner towards Allah for those who are in search of truth,<br />
a bearer of glad tidings for believers and a perfect man for everyone<br />
to behold. he brought the Book that encompasses all laws based on<br />
wisdom and guides towards the realization of all spiritual blessings.<br />
he perfected the intellectual and practical faculties of many, adorning<br />
them with morals that please God, and cleansed them of the impurities<br />
of human nature. Thus, through his teachings, they excelled in<br />
all branches of true and certain knowledge, and were enraptured in<br />
their love for God, the one, and became eager to behold his holy<br />
countenance and his holy Manifestations. o Allah! Send Your blessings<br />
upon him and all his brethren—the Messengers and Prophets—<br />
and upon his blessed and virtuous progeny, and upon his righteous and<br />
truthful companions. [Publishers]<br />
