Source (Arabic)
تَاللّهِ الحَقِّ من يفتح اليوم شفتاه في ذكر اسم ربّه لينزل عليه جنود الوحي عن مشرق إسمي الحكيم العليم وينزلنّ عليه أهل ملأ الأعلى بصحائف من النّور وكذلك قدّر في جبروت الأمر من لدن عزيز قدير
Shoghi Effendi Translation
By the righteousness of God! Whoso openeth his lips in this Day and maketh mention of the name of his Lord, the hosts of Divine inspiration shall descend upon him from the heaven of My name, the All-Knowing, the All-Wise. On him shall also descend the Concourse on high, each bearing aloft a chalice of pure light. Thus hath it been foreordained in the realm of God’s Revelation, by the behest of Him Who is the All-Glorious, the Most Powerful.
