بسم الله الامنع الاقدس. اننی انا الله لا اله الا انا و ان ما دونی خلقی قل ان یا خلقی ایای فاعبدون قد خلقتک و رزقتک و امتک و احببتک و بعثتک و جعلتک مظهر نفسی لتتلون من عندی ایاتی و لتدعون کل من خلقته الی دینی هذا صراط عز منیع و خلقت کل شیء |

Verily I am God, no God is there but Me, and aught except Me is but My creation. Say, worship Me then, O ye, My creatures. |
abstract | A condensed form of the Persian Bayán, written in the language of divine verses. While much shorter in length than the Persian Bayán, the Arabic Bayán contains eleven full unities, whereas the Persian Bayán ends with gate 10 of the ninth unity. The parts of the Arabic Bayán that are not matched by the Persian Bayán (from gate 11 of the ninth unity to the end of the eleventh unity) were written after the Persian Bayán was completed. This work is sometimes assumed to have been written before the Persian Bayán for the simple reason that it seems as if the latter is an elaboration of the former. In reality, however, like the Persian Bayán, most of the Arabic Bayán was written in Mákú, although the last sections may have been written in Chihriq. |
