An intricate commentary on the names and attributes of God, taking as point of departure a statement by the Báb which relates ‘His sacred mirror and eternal light’ to the name of God huwa (‘He’), which has an inner and outer aspect signifying both the unity of opposites and the alchemical fire and water attained of old by the prophet Moses.

Alvah-i-Sha'arat (Tablets of the Hair)

Praises God for creating the "treasure of creation" in Paradise and manifesting fire and water together through His power. Marvels at the serpent He made as the guardian of this treasure, endowed with His divine breath. Requests that through this serpent, God unites the hearts of His loved ones and brings them together, just as He brought together fire and water. Reflects on the wonders of God's creation and His mysterious works, including creating this serpent to test the strength of His devoted followers. Recognizes that despite the hardships caused by this serpent, the believers look to God for solace and continue to seek His divine grace. Acknowledges that God has promised heavenly rewards for the righteous and the punishment of hellfire for the disobedient. Expresses bewilderment at the workings of God and submits oneself to His will, seeking refuge in Him alone.
