32.12

اکسری در یک تخت و صد عالم در یک قصر، در هنگام اظهار حماست و شجاعت چون شیرژیان همه دل و در زمان نشر جود و سخاوت بهسان ابر نیسان همه دست، هر جا که در مصحف محاسن شیم ومعالی هجم ذکر اوصاف مرضیهآ او پیدا آید، رکوع لازم است و هر جا که در سورهٔ‌ مکارم و فضایل نام همایونش ظاهر گردد سجود واجب، آیات فتح مبین از حرفهای خنجر ذوالفقار آثار او مبرهن گشته و تفسیر نصر عزیز از زبان سنان شهاب پیکر او روشن شده، به اعتضاد ستایش عدلش روباه ضعیف بستر و بالین از پشت شیر نر ساخته، و به استظهار پاسبانی حرمش در شب تار سپهر جواهر زواهر نجوم را هر طرفی بیرون انداخته، رأیش در معضلات امور ملک مجتهدی مصیب آمده و ضمیرش در حل مشکلات مصالح پادشاهی قدوه و اسوهآ سلاطین گشته، پادشاهان کشورگشای در صف هیجا برای دفع اعدای دین لقب مبارکش چون حرز یمینی بر بازوی علم میبندند، و خسروان سپاه آرای در مضایق وغا برای قلع مخالفان شرع سیدالمرسلین نام خنجرش بهسان حرز یمانی وسیلت میسازند، با تاج خورشید آثار و سریر پایدار مملکت، قدم در راه اولیای کرامت شعار زده و با2 ازدحام عظایم شواغل سلطنت هیچ زمانی از رعایت احکام شرع الهی غافل نبوده و همه وقت اعمال دینی را بر اشغال دنیاوی مقدم داشته و صفات حمیدهآ آن شهریار دیندار چندان است که سرجمله مراتب حساب را مشتمل گردد و بنا بر آن قلم کشیده و زمام تطویل بیان معطوف گردانیده آمد6:

Wherever in the scripture of fine dispositions and noble qualities the mention of his pleasing virtues appears, bowing is necessary; and wherever
in the chapter of noble acts and merits his auspicious name is revealed, prostration is obligatory; the verses of the clear victory from
the verses of 'manifest victory' have become proven by the letters of his Dhū al-Faqār-like dagger, and the exposition of 'mighty aid' has been illuminated by the tongue of his meteor-shaped lance;
sustained by the praise of his justice, the weak fox has made a bed and pillow of the back of the male lion; and
relying upon the guardianship of his sanctuary, the celestial sphere has cast forth on every side the brilliant jewels of the stars into the dark night;
his judgment in intricate affairs of state has proved a correct mujtahid, and his inner mind in resolving the difficulties of royal concerns
has become the exemplar and model for sultans. Realm-conquering monarchs, in the rank of battle for repelling the enemies
of the faith, bind his blessed title upon the arm of their banner like an auspicious amulet; and army-arraying sovereigns, in the straits
of war for eradicating the opponents of the Sacred Law of the Master of the Messengers, take the name of his dagger as a means [of protection] like a Yemenite amulet.
Along with a sun-like crown and an enduring throne of sovereignty, he has set his foot upon the path of the saints characterized by miracles; and despite the press
