"Shall not the curse of God fall upon the unjust"(K. S. II)?
If thou dost interpret this verse ("our armies should surely be the conquerors") literally, it would never be outwardly true concerning the Holy Ones of God and His Hosts, for His Holiness (Hosein), whose "Host"-ship was as clear and evident as the sun, quaffed the cup of martyrdom in the land of Taff (Karbila) with the utmost oppression and subjection. Likewise the blessed verse, "They seek to extinguish the light of God with their mouths; but God willeth no other than to perfect His Light, although the infidels be averse thereto." If this be interpreted according to the outward sense, it will never reconcile, for the Divine Lights have always been outwardly extinguished and the Eternal Lamps quenched; how then shall the victory be realized? And what is the meaning of the prohibition in the blessed verse, "God willeth no other than to perfect His Light"? It is evident that these Lights found not rest in a place of safety nor drank the cup of tranquillity, owing to the hand of the infidels. These Lights were so oppressed that every one inflicted upon these Essences of Being whatever he wished all of which is understood and apprehended by the people. In view of all this, how can these people undertake to interpret and explain these Divine words and verses of Eternal Might?
To be brief; the purpose is not as they have understood; nay rather, by dominion, power and authority
