Kitáb-i-Íqán — §97

Persian source with Shoghi Effendi’s authorized English translation. Paragraph 97 of 291.

Source (Persian)

باری، مقصود از اين اذکار اين بود که اگر بگويند اين علائم مذکوره که از انجيل ذکر شد تحريف يافته و ردّ نمايند و متمسّک به آيات و اخبار شوند مطّلع باشيد که کذب محض و افترای صرف است. بلی، ذکر تحريف به اين معنی که ذکر شد در اماکن مشخّصه هست چنانچه بعضی از آن را ذکر نموديم تا معلوم و مبرهن شود بر هر ذی بصری که احاطه علوم ظاهره هم نزد بعضی از امّيّين الهی هست، ديگر معارضين به اين خيال نيفتند و معارضه ننمايند که فلان آيه دليل بر تحريف است و اين اصحاب از عدم اطّلاع ذکر اين مراتب و مطالب را نمودهاند. و ديگر آنکه اکثر آيات که مشعر بر تحريف است درباره يهود نازل شده، لو اَنتُم فِی جَزائِر علمِ الفُرقانِ تحبرون.

Shoghi Effendi Translation

Our purpose in relating these things is to warn you that were they to maintain that those verses wherein the signs referred to in the Gospel are mentioned have been perverted, were they to reject them, and cling instead to other verses and traditions, you should know that their words were utter falsehood and sheer calumny. Yea “corruption” of the text, in the sense We have referred to, hath been actually effected in particular instances. A few of these We have mentioned, that it may become manifest to every discerning observer that unto a few untutored holy Men hath been given the mastery of human learning, so that the malevolent opposer may cease to contend that a certain verse doth indicate “corruption” of the text, and insinuate that We, through lack of knowledge, have made mention of such things. Moreover, most of the verses that indicate “corruption” of the text have been revealed with reference to the Jewish people, were ye to explore the isles of Qur’ánic Revelation.
