Thou art the Sovereign Ruler, the Mighty Doer, the Exalted, the
All-loving.
"Glory be unto Thee, O Lord my God! Nothing whatsoever ..."
Glory be unto Thee, O Lord my God! Nothing whatsoever escapeth Thy
knowledge, nor is there anything that could slip from Thy grasp, or
anything that could thwart Thy Purpose, whether in the heavens or on the
earth, of the past or of the future.
Thou seest Paradise and the inmates thereof; Thou beholdest the realm
below and the dwellers thereof. All are but Thy servants and are held
within Thy grasp.
"O Lord! Render victorious Thy forbearing servants in ..."
O Lord! Render victorious Thy forbearing servants in Thy days by granting
them a befitting victory, inasmuch as they have sought martyrdom in Thy
path. Send down upon them that which will bring comfort to their minds,
will rejoice their inner beings, will impart assurance to their hearts and
tranquillity to their bodies and will enable their souls to ascend to the
presence of God, the Most Exalted, and to attain the supreme Paradise and
such retreats of glory as Thou hast destined for men of true knowledge and
virtue. Verily Thou knowest all things, while we are but Thy servants, Thy
thralls, Thy bondsmen and Thy poor ones. No Lord but Thee do we invoke, O
God our Lord, nor do we implore blessings or grace from anyone but Thee, O
Thou Who art the God of mercy unto this world and the next. We are but the
embodiments of poverty, of nothingness, of helplessness and of perdition,
while Thy whole Being betokeneth wealth, independence, glory, majesty and
boundless grace.
