This is an Epistle which the All-Merciful hath sent down from the Kingdom of Utterance. It is truly a breath of life… Say: Magnified be Thy Name, O Lord my God!
abstract Calls on the people to observe a number of spiritual maxims; answers a question regarding the origin of creation; describes the Word of God as ‘the Cause which hath preceded the contingent world’; identifies nature with the operation of the Divine Will; mentions in positive terms some ancient philosophers, including Empedocles, Pythagoras, Hippocrates, Socrates, Plato, Aristotle, Balinus, and Hermes; states that the essence and fundamentals of philosophy have emanated from the Prophets; and asserts that a true philosopher would never deny God and His evidences.
