Source (Arabic)
شکّی نبوده و نیست که ایّام مظاهر حقّ جلّ جلاله بحقّ منسوب و در مقامی بایّام اللّه مذکور ولکن این یوم غیر ایّام است از ختمیّت خاتم مقام این یوم ظاهر و مشهود نبوّت ختم شد حقّ با رایة اقتدار از مشرق امر ظاهر و مشرق
Shoghi Effendi Translation
It is evident that every age in which a Manifestation of God hath lived is divinely ordained, and may, in a sense, be characterized as God’s appointed Day. This Day, however, is unique, and is to be distinguished from those that have preceded it. The designation “Seal of the Prophets” fully revealeth its high station. The Prophetic Cycle hath, verily, ended. The Eternal Truth is now come. He hath lifted up the Ensign of Power, and is now shedding upon the world the unclouded splendor of His Revelation.
