And whoever wants to protect himself and his country from the invading enemy will not find a stronger fortress after God than his people and his kin, for they are the starting and ending point. Wars fade, kingdoms fade, but the authority of hearts remains; no one can create it or abolish it. It is a position that armies do not reach, nor weapons can violate. Let people witness what they will, so where do empty, lonely hearts go before the heart filled with love and loyalty? Is this your security? Is this the security of the faithful, pure, steadfast ones who inherited the call of the prophets and the methodology of the righteous predecessors? Or do the laws of previous nations repeat in you as they did in others? Its beginning is a call, and its end is kingship, authority, and spoils. This is human nature; they forget beginnings and causes, and only remember results and ends. How many dear ones have been humiliated, and only when they wronged, and their humiliation was the fruit of their work and the work of those who followed them, leading the nation to humiliation and disgrace.
