هو المتکبرالعلی الاعلی. حمد و سپاس بی مثل و قیاس حضرت حی قیوم را سزاست که لم یزل بوده و شیء در ساحت قدس

Praise and glory, beyond comparison and likeness, befit the Supreme, the Ever-Living and Eternal Lord, who hath existed from time immemorial, while naught hath ever approached the sanctified precincts of His holiness [4o]... ...The substance wherewith God hath created Me is not the clay out of which others have been formed

Shoghi Effendi writes in " God Passes By", p. 26: "The Báb was still in Máh-Kú when He wrote the most detailed and illuminating of His Tablets to Muḥammad Sháh. Prefaced by a laudatory reference to the unity of God, to His Apostles and to the twelve Imáms; unequivocal in its assertion of the divinity of its Author and of the supernatural powers with which His Revelation had been invested; precise in the verses and traditions it cites in confirmation of so audacious a claim; severe in its condemnation of some of the officials and representatives of the Sháh’s administration, particularly of the “wicked and accursed” Ḥusayn Khán; moving in its description of the humiliation and hardships to which its writer had been subjected, this historic document resembles, in many of its features, the Lawḥ-i-Sulṭán, the Tablet addressed, under similar circumstances, from the prison-fortress of ‘Akká by Bahá’u’lláh to Náṣiri’d-Dín Sháh, and constituting His lengthiest epistle to any single sovereign."

بسم الله الامنع الاقدس. شهد الله انه لا اله الا هو له الخلق و الامر یحیی و یمیت ثم یمیت و یحیی و انه هو حی لا یموت فی قبضته ملکوت کلشیء یخلق ما یشآء بأمره انه کان علی کل شیء قدیراً قل هو الحق لا اله الا هو یحی و یمیت

God testifieth that there is none other God but Him. His is the creation and the command. He giveth life and causeth death, then causeth death and giveth life, and verily He is the Ever-Living Who dieth not. In His grasp is the dominion of all things; He createth whatsoever He willeth by His command, and verily, He hath power over all things. Say: He is the Truth, there is none other God but Him. He giveth life and causeth death [3.5s]... ...Inasmuch as every morning I saw thee reciting these words, “I believe in the Mystery of the Family of Muhammad,”
