Whatever reacheth Me is ordained to reach Me; and that which
hath come unto Me, to him who giveth will it revert… For assuredly whatsoever
God hath decreed for Me shall come to pass and naught else save that which God
hath ordained for us shall ever touch us. Woe betide him from whose hands
floweth evil, and blessed the man from whose hands floweth good. Unto no one do
I take My plaint save to God; for He is the best of judges. Every state of
adversity or bliss is from Him alone, and He is the All-Powerful, the Almighty.
