…it is indeed within the power of Him
Who changeth the earth into another earth to transform all that dwell and move
thereon. Wherefore marvel not at how He turneth darkness into light, light into
darkness, ignorance into knowledge, error into guidance, death into life, and
life into death. It is in this station that the law of transformation taketh
effect. Ponder thereon, if thou be of them that tread this path, that all thou
didst ask of this lowly One may be made plain unto thee and that thou mayest
abide within the tabernacle of this guidance. For He doeth whatsoever He
willeth and ordaineth whatsoever He pleaseth. Nor shall He be asked of His
doings, whilst all men will be asked of their every deed. [cf. Qur’án 21:23]
