THE FOURTH TARAZ (169:5) is on trustworthiness. Verily, this is the door of tranquillity to all in the world, and the sign of glory from the presence of the merciful One. Whosoever attains thereto has attained to treasuries of wealth and affluence. Trustworthiness is the greatest door to the security and tranquillity of mankind. The stability of every affair always depends on it, and the worlds of honor, glory and affluence are illuminated by its light. (169:6) Sometime since, this sweet Utterance was revealed from the Supreme Pen: (169:7) "Verily, We mention unto thee Trustworthiness and the place it occupies before God, thy Lord and the Lord of the Great Throne. One day We repaired unto our Green Island. When We entered therein, We found its streams flowing, its trees in full foliage, and the sun playing through the interstices. (169:8) "Turning our Face to the right, We beheld that which the pen fails to describe, nor can it set forth that which was witnessed by the eye of the Lord of mankind in that place, which is the most pure, the most honored, the most blessed, the most lofty.
(169:9)
