Praise be unto Him Who is the Ever-Abiding, the Ever-Enduring, Who is worthy and befitting of all glorification, even in this hour when the fire of hatred hath been kindled in all regions and quarters [3.5s]... ...The movement itself from place to place, when undertaken for the sake of God, hath always exerted, and can now exert, its influence in the world
