Source (Arabic)
قد قدّر لکلّ نفس تبلیغ هذا الأمر من القلم الأعلی...إنّه یلهم الّذین انقطعوا عمّا سواه ویجري من قلوبهم سلسبیل الحکمة والبیان إنّ ربّک الرّحمن لهو المقتدر علی ما یشآء والحاکم علی ما یرید
Shoghi Effendi Translation
The Pen of the Most High hath decreed and imposed upon every one the obligation to teach this Cause.… God will, no doubt, inspire whosoever detacheth himself from all else but Him, and will cause the pure waters of wisdom and utterance to gush out and flow copiously from his heart. Verily, thy Lord, the All-Merciful, is powerful to do as He willeth, and ordaineth whatsoever He pleaseth.
