He sits, and on his own account offers as a gift to the Undying All-Beauteous One, the Enduring All-Glorious One, the blessed salutations and benedictions of all creatures. And greeting Allah's Most Noble Messenger (UWBP), he renews his allegiance to him and proclaims his obedience to his commands. In order to renew and illuminate his belief, he observes the wise order in this palace of the universe and testifies to the unity of the All-Glorious Maker. And he testifies to the messengership of Muhammad the Arabian (Upon whom be blessings and peace), who is the herald of the sovereignty of Allah's dominicality, the proclaimer of those things pleasing to Him, and the interpreter of the signs and verses of the book of the universe. To perform the Maghrib prayer is this. So how can a person be considered a human being if he does not understand what a fine and pure duty is the prayer at sunset, what an exalted and pleasurable act of service, what an agreeable and pleasing act of worship, what a serious matter, and what an unending conversation and permanent happiness it is in this transient guesthouse?
