The second of these spiritual standards which apply to the possessor of
knowledge is that he should be the defender of his faith. It is obvious

adopt a combination of all possible measures to raise up the Word of God,
increase the number of believers, promote the Faith of God and exalt it
and make it victorious over other religions.
