Whatsoever people is graciously favoured therewith by God,
its name shall surely be magnified and extolled by the Concourse from on high,
by the company of angels, and the denizens of the Abhá Kingdom. And whatsoever
people turneth its heart away from this Divine Love—the revelation of the
Merciful—shall err grievously, shall fall into despair, and be utterly
destroyed. That people shall be denied all refuge, shall become even as the
vilest creatures of the earth, victims of degradation and shame.
