1 | O you who believe! Let it be said: Al-Mu’id; |
2 | The Restorer; The One who Reinstates and who brings back All; |
3 | And the third name of Allah, the Infinite, the Unique, the All Knowing. |
4 | Thus nothing is lost from the story of humanity; |
5 | The story of our beginnings; |
6 | The story of how we came to be men and women; |
7 | From the soil of the Earth and the light of the Stars; |
8 | The story of Divine influence and our relation; |
9 | Even if false words and false claims be inserted; |
10 | Nothing may be erased, destroyed or corrupted; |
11 | Once created in the mind and dream of Allah, it cannot be uncreated. |
12 | Allah is the ultimate narrator; |
13 | Our relation to Allah and all his creation is the ultimate Narrative. |
14 | Some say that we are cursed, we are fallen and that we must atone; |
15 | Yet such narratives are an insult of our divine creator as if to claim that the creator of the universe would willingly make an error. |
16 | Other stories speak of only a few having authority from some deity and all others no more than animals; |
17 | Thus, some such as the Umay-Yad seek to rule not just tyrants but as gods of madness. |
18 | Nothing could be more insulting to Allah than to speak as if we are born of higher classes and lesser classes instead of one family. |
19 | Verily, we are one, we are of one father, one mother, all. |
20 | O you who believe! Listen then to the truth of your heart, let it be your guide as to the narrative. |
21 | Let not those who wish to control by fear spread their false narrative. |
