Animals And Birds Arabic Summary For The 7th Degree Of The 1st Station

By the consensus of these three truths, all the species of animals are engaged together in testifying that "There is no god but He." It is as if the whole earth, like a great man, were saying "There is no god but He" in a manner befitting its vastness, and conveying its testimony to the dwellers of the heaven. The traveller saw this and understood it perfectly. In expression of these truths, we said in the Seventh Degree of the First Station:

لَٓا اِلٰهَ اِلَّا اللّٰهُ الْوَاجِبُ الْوُجُودِ الَّذ۪ى دَلَّ عَلٰى وُجُوبِ وُجُودِهِ ف۪ى وَحْدَتِهِ اِتِّفَاقُ جَم۪يعِ اَنْوَاعِ الْحَيَوَانَاتِ وَ الطُّيُورِ الْحَامِدَاتِ الشَّاهِدَاتِ بِكَلِمَاتِ حَوَاسِّهَا وَ قُوَاهَا وَ حِسِّيَّاتِهَا وَ لَطَٓائِفِهَا الْمَوْزُونَاتِ الْمُنْتَظَمَاتِ الْفَص۪يحَاتِ وَ بِكَلِمَاتِ جِهَازَاتِهَا وَ جَوَارِحِهَا وَ اَعْضَائِهَا وَاٰلَاتِهَا الْمُكَمَّلَةِ الْبَل۪يغَاتِ بِشَهَادَةِ عَظَمَةِ اِحَاطَةِ حَق۪يقَةِ الْا۪يجَادِ وَ الصُّنْعِ وَ الْاِبْدَاعِ بِالْاِرَادَةِ وَ حَق۪يقَةِ التَّمْي۪يزِ وَ التَّزْي۪ينِ بِالْقَصْدِ وَ حَق۪يقَةِ التَّقْد۪يرِ وَ التَّصْو۪يرِ بِالْحِكْمَةِ مَعَ قَطْعِيَّةِ دَلَالَةِ حَق۪يقَةِ فَتْحِ جَم۪يعِ صُوَرِهَا الْمُنْتَظَمَةِ الْمُتَخَالِفَةِ الْمُتَنَوِّعَةِ الْغَيْرِ الْمَحْصُورَةِ مِنْ بَيْضَاتٍ وَ قَطَرَاتٍ مُتَمَاثِلَةٍ مُتَشَابِهَةٍ مَحْصُورَةٍ مَحْدُودَةٍ

There is no god but Allah, to Whose Necessary Existence in Unity points the consensus of all animals and birds, that praise Allah and bear witness to Him with the words of their senses, their faculties and powers, words well-balanced, ordered and eloquent; with the words of their limbs and members, words perfect and persuasive; by the testimony of the sublimity of the comprehensiveness of the truth of bringing into being, making, and creating, according to will, the truth of distinction and decoration according to purpose, and the truth of proportioning and forming according to wisdom. Definite too is the indication given by the truth of the opening of all of their orderly, distinct, variegated and infinite forms, out of identical or similar eggs and drops of sperm, that are finite and limited.
