"My Supreme Pen testifieth that he attained what no one had attained before him, and there befell him that which no ear had heard."

"We call to mind at this juncture Muḥammad-‘Alí,¹ whose flesh was mingled with that of his Master, his blood with His blood, his body with His body, and his bones with those of his Lord, the Exalted, the Bountiful. My Supreme Pen testifieth that he attained what no one had attained before him, and there befell him that which no ear had heard. Upon him be My glory, and the glory of My Kingdom and My Realm on high, and the splendour of the dwellers of the city of justice and equity.

Blessed art thou, O Muḥammad, in that thou hast drunk from the wine of utterance proffered by thy Lord, the All-Merciful. Thus hath the Sun of divine proofs shed its light from the horizon of the blessings of Thy God, the Lord of all mankind."

—Bahá’u’lláh

1 Mírzá Muḥammad-‘Alí Zunúzí, surnamed Anís, who was martyred with the Báb.
