Will and Testament — §52

Persian source with Shoghi Effendi’s authorized English translation. Paragraph 52 of 59.

Source (Persian)

جمیع اعداء حقّ در کلّ نقاط عالم افول شمس حقیقت را غنیمت شمردند دفعةً بکمال قوّت هجوم کردند در چنین حالتی و مصیبتی ناقضان بمنتهای اعتساف بر اذیّت و بغضا قیام نمودند و در هر دمی صدهزار جفا روا داشتند و بفساد عظیم و هدم بنیان پیمان قیام نمودند و این مظلوم مسجون بکمال همّت بستر و کتمان میپرداخت که شاید ندامت نمایند و پشیمان گردند ولی صبر و تحمّل این جفا سبب ازدیاد جرئت و جسارت اهل طغیان گشت تا آنکه بخطّ خویش اوراق شبهات مرقوم نمودند و در جمیع آفاق مطبوعاً انتشار دادند و گمان کردند که اینگونه هذیان سبب انعدام عهد و پیمان گردد

Shoghi Effendi Translation

When, in all parts of the earth, the enemies of God, profiting by the passing away of the Sun of Truth, suddenly and with all their might launched their attack—at such a time and in the midst of so great a calamity, the Covenant-breakers arose with the utmost cruelty, intent upon harm and the stirring up of the spirit of enmity. At every moment a misdeed they did commit and bestirred themselves to sow the seeds of grievous sedition, and to ruin the edifice of the Covenant. But this wronged one, this prisoner, did his utmost to hide and veil their doings, that haply they might regret and repent. His long-suffering and forbearance of these evil deeds, however, made the rebellious ones still more arrogant and daring; until, through leaflets written with their own hands, they sowed the seeds of doubt, printing these leaflets and scattering them broadcast throughout the world, believing that such foolish doings would bring to naught the Covenant and the Testament.
