O my God! O my God! Verily Thy servant, humble before the majesty of Thy
divine supremacy, lowly at the door of Thy oneness, hath believed in Thee
and in Thy verses, hath testified to Thy word, hath been enkindled with
the fire of Thy love, hath been immersed in the depths of the ocean of Thy
knowledge, hath been attracted by Thy breezes, hath relied upon Thee, hath
turned his face to Thee, hath offered his supplications to Thee, and hath
been assured of Thy pardon and forgiveness. He hath abandoned this mortal
life and hath flown to the kingdom of immortality, yearning for the favour
of meeting Thee.
O Lord, glorify his station, shelter him under the pavilion of Thy supreme
mercy, cause him to enter Thy glorious paradise, and perpetuate his
existence in Thine exalted rose garden, that he may plunge into the sea of
light in the world of mysteries.
Verily, Thou art the Generous, the Powerful, the Forgiver and the
Bestower.
O thou assured soul, thou maidservant of God...! Be not grieved at the
death of thy respected husband. He hath, verily, attained the meeting of
his Lord at the seat of Truth in the presence of the potent King. Do not
suppose that thou hast lost him. The veil shall be lifted and thou shalt
behold his face illumined in the Supreme Concourse. Just as God, the
Exalted, hath said, 'Him will we surely quicken to a happy life.' Supreme
importance should be attached, therefore, not to this first creation but
rather to the future life.
