Source (Arabic)
(٣١) ﴿ ای پسر ارض ﴾
اگر مرا خواهی جز مرا مخواه و اگر اراده جمالم داری چشم از عالميان بردار زيرا که اراده من و غير من چون آب و آتش در يک دل و قلب نگنجد *
Shoghi Effendi Translation
(31) O SON OF EARTH!
Wouldst thou have Me, seek none other than Me; and wouldst thou gaze upon My beauty, close thine eyes to the world and all that is therein; for My will and the will of another than Me, even as fire and water, cannot dwell together in one heart.
