To what can you attribute these truly extraordinary arts? What veil of heedlessness can you draw across this window as broad as the earth and so close it?

Come, now look carefully at a tree! See its delicate mouth within the orderly emergence of the leaves in spring, and the blossoms opening in a measured manner, and the fruits swelling with wisdom and mercy and dancing at the blowing of the breeze in the hands of the branches like innocent children. See the just balance within the wise order expressed through the tongue of the leaves becoming green at a generous hand, through that of the flowers smiling with the joy of a favour received, and through the words of the fruits laughing through a manifestation of mercy. See the careful arts and embroideries within the balance demonstrating justice; and the mercy within the skilful embroideries and adornment; and the various sweet tastes and delightful scents, which indicate mercy and bestowal; and the seeds, each of which is a miracle of power within the agreeable tastes: all these point in most clear fashion to the necessary existence and unity of an All-Wise, Generous, Compassionate, Beneficent, Bountiful Maker, a Bestower of Beauty and Favours, to the beauty of His mercy and perfection of His dominicality. | Come, now look carefully at a tree!

< | Thus, if you can listen at the same time to the tongues of disposition of all the trees on the earth, you will see and understand what exquisite jewels are to be found in the treasury of the verse: All that is in the heavens and on the earth extols God’s limitless glory.(*<ref>*Qur’an, 62:1; 64:1.</ref>) | ||

O you unhappy heedless one who supposes himself to be free through his ingratitude! If the All-Generous One of Beauty, Who makes Himself known to you and loved by you through these innumerable tongues had not wanted you to know Him, He would have silenced them. Since they have not been silenced, they should be heeded. You cannot be saved by closing your ears in heedlessness. For the universe does not fall silent at you stopping up your ears, the beings within it will not be silent, the witnesses to Divine unity will not hold their tongues. And for sure, they will condemn you... | |||

</ | (*<ref>*The true meaning of this Twentieth Window occurred to my heart at one time in Arabic in this way: The sparkling of the light is through Your illuminating and making it known; | ||
The rolling on of the ages is through Your despatching and employing them; | |||
Glory be unto You, how mighty is Your rule! | |||
The flowing forth of the rivers is through Your storing them up and subjugating them; The decorations of stones is through Your designing and fashioning them; | |||
Glory be unto You, how sublime is Your wisdom! | |||
The smiling of the flowers is through Your adorning and beautifying them; The embellishing of fruits is through Your bestowal and munificence; Glory be unto You, how beautiful is Your art! | |||
The carolling of the birds is through Your making them speak and Your avail; The singing of the rain is through Your causing it to fall, Your bestowal; | |||
Glory be unto You, how vast is Your Mercy! | |||
The motion of the moons is through Your determining, Your planning, Your rotating them, Your illuminating them; | |||
Glory be unto You, how brilliant Your proofs, how dazzling Your sovereignty!</ref>) | |||
So glory be to Him in Whose hands is the dominion of all things.(*<ref>*Qur’an, 36:83.</ref>) * And there is nothing but its treasuries are with Us; but We only send it down in a measure defined. * And We send forth the winds to fertilize [the plants], and We send down rain from the skies providing you with water therewith, | |||

Just as perfect wisdom and beauty of art are apparent in particulars and results and in details, so do the universal elements and large creatures take up their positions in accordance with wisdom and art, despite their apparently being mixed up together by chance without order. | |||
Thus, as its other wise duties show, light shines in order to proclaim and make known the Divine creatures on the face of the earth, with the permission of its Sustainer. This means that light is employed by a Wise Maker; by means of it, He makes manifest His antique works of art in the exhibitions of the market of this world. | |||
