The Most Fitting Subject
The most fitting subject which the tongue of words should use with the using of tongue, is the exalted exalting of the Lord God's omnipotent omnipotence.
May His ninety-nine blessed names be praised!
May His ninety-nine praised names be blessed!

His is Creation, like a brocaded fabric, colored with exquisite designs and various groupings.
He brought everything from nothing unto the basis of being.
May the Leavener of Clay be glorified!
May the Powerful Dispenser be glorified!
***** Timoor Khan of pure progeny — may Allah send him the delights of Paradise! — related how God the Holder of the Scales of Justice with the Strength of His Hands — may He be exalted! — created the first man Adam Khan — on him Peace! — out of clay, and from the clay which remained in the mould in which Adam Khan — on him Peace! — had been shaped, the Lord God — may He be exalted! — made seven things:
Dates;
Grapes;
Pomegranates;
Steel;
Women;
Flowers;
And, finally, the head of the horse.
***** Then, out of His will, Allah — His All-Mercy purifies the World! — created the Houris in Paradise for the enjoyment of the righteous, giving to them the secret of virginity that eternally re-creates itself after each night of passion. And from the saliva of the Houris — may seven of them share my couch in the hereafter! — He created the horse's blood. And from a splinter of His Seven-Stepped Throne of Glory He fashioned the horse's body. And from the blessed Tuba tree He made the horse's mane. And then, with the polish and power of His guiding will, He gave life to the whole.
***** Thus the Lord God — may He be exalted! — made the horse most perfect of all created things. And because of this the Messenger Mohammed Mustaffa, the Seal of the Elected, the Sweet Prophet, the Chief of the Mighty Saints, the Great Apostle — on Him and His Descendants the blessings of the One God! — always kept his favorite horse by his side, and was in the habit of cleaning its eyes and nostrils with his own illustrious, green cloak and to give it sweet barley to eat out of this same cloak.
*****
This is the truth!
And it has also been said that sins are equal in number to the hairs
Of the horse's mane .

Thus said the Khan Timoor Khan of pure progeny,
The far traveled Dervish ,
*****
O Moslems, repeat the Kalima;
" One the God is, and Mohammed is His Messenger! "
