THE TWENTY-FIFTH WORD Articles;
A Flower of Emirdag
My Dear and Loyal Brothers! Due to my wretched situation, this Matter is confused and graceless. But I knew there to be definitely beneath the confused wording a most valuable sort of miraculousness, though unfortunately, I was not capable of expressing it. But however dull the wording, since it concerns the Qur'an, it is both worship in the form of reflection, and the shell of a sacred, elevated, shining jewel. The diamond in the hand should be looked at, not its torn clothes. Also, I wrote it in one or two days during Ramadan while extremely ill, wretched, and without food, of necessity very concisely and briefly, and including many truths and numerous proofs in a single sentence. Let its deficiencies, then, not be considered. [As the Tenth Matter of the fruit of Denizli Prison, it is a small shining flower of Emirdag and of this month of Ramadan. By explaining one instance of wisdom in the repetitions of the Qur'an, it dispels the poisonous, putrid illusions of the people of misguidance.]
Conclusion
Two flashes of the Qur'an's miraculousness mentioned in the Fourteenth Drop of the Nineteenth Word are its repetitions, which are imagined to be a fault, and its brevity concerning the physical sciences, both of which are sources for flashes of miraculousness. Also, a flash of the Qur'an's miraculousness which shines on the miracles of the prophets in the Qur'an is demonstrated clearly in the Second Station of the Twentieth Word. And like in these, numerous flashes of miraculousness have been mentioned in the other Words and in my Arabic treatises. And so, deeming those to be sufficient, here we shall only say this, that a further miracle of the Qur'an is that just as all the miracles of the prophets demonstrate an impress of the Qur'an's miraculousness, so too, with all its miracles, the Qur'an is a miracle of the Prophet Muhammed (PBUH). And all the miracles of the Prophet Muhammed (PBUH) are a miracle of the Qur'an which demonstrate the Qur'an's relation with Almighty God. And with the appearance of that relation each of its words becomes a miracle. For then a single of its words may contain the meaning of a tree of truths, like a seed; and may be connected with all the members of a mighty truth, like the centre of the heart; and since its relies on an all-encompassing knowledge and infinite will, may look to innumerable things together with their letters, totalities, situations, and positions. Thus, it is because of this that the scholars of the science of letters claim that they have found a pageful of secrets in a single of the Qur'an's letters, and they prove what they claim to adepts of that science.
First Addendum
Knowing the aim of life in this world, and the life of life, to be belief, the tireless and insatiable traveller through the world who was questioning the universe concerning his Sustainer then said to himself: "Let us refer to the book called the Qur'an of Miraculous Exposition, which is known as the word and speech of the One we are seeking, and is the most famous, brilliant, dominant book in the world, challenging everyone in every century who does not submit to it. But first we must prove that it is the book of our Creator." And he started to search.

The Twenty-Fifth Word
The Miraculousness of The Qur'an "While there is a perpetual miracle like the Qur'an, searching for further proof appears to my mind as superfluous; "While there is a proof of reality like the Qur'an, would silencing those who deny it weigh heavily on my heaff?"
