B AR Ā H Ī N-E-A H M ADIY YA — PART F IV E 304 When God Almighty wills that a miracle should be manifested by them, He creates a passion in their hearts and inspires their hearts with the greatest longing and craving for the attainment of a certain objec- tive, then it is that they remove the veil of independence from their countenance, and that beauty of theirs, which is not visible to anyone except God, manifests itself upon the angels of Heaven and upon each and every particle. Their removing the veil from their countenance means that with their perfect sincerity and purity and spiritual beauty—on account of which they have become God’s beloved—they turn to Him in such an extraordinary manner, and such a condition of absorbing godly influ- ences is created in them that it draws His extraordinary mercy towards them and with it, each and every particle of the world is also drawn towards them. The intensity of their ardour of love gathers together in Heaven and manifests its countenance to the angels like unto clouds, and their anguish which has the quality of lightening within itself causes a great clamour in the upper echelons of Heaven. It is then that, by the power of God Almighty, those clouds come into being that shower the rain of mercy of God Almighty that they desire. When their spiritual- ity turns its attention—with its full and fervent anguish—to resolve some difficult issue, it draws the attention of God Almighty to itself. Since these people have a personal love for God, they are counted among His loved ones and so everything under the dominion of God, is moved with great zeal to help them1 ٭ , and—simply to fulfil their desire—the mercy of God Almighty readies to bring about a whole 1. ٭ The disbelievers and enemies also help them in a way because their ex- cesses and persecution causes pain to their hearts and arouse their spiritual fervour. [As is said]: بد رد مد نا خد ا د ل مرد تا كرد. نہ رسوا خد ا را مے قو ہیچ Until the heart of a man of God is filled with pain and sorrow, God does not humiliate a people. (Author)
