Chapter I: The Creation and Fall of Man from the Moorish Holy Koran (Circle 7)
Time never was when man was not. If life of man at any time began, a time would come when it would end. The thought of Allah cannot be circumscribed. It is not bounded by the things of time and space. It is not subject to the conditions of the flesh, nor to the weaknesses and the decay of human flesh. The bodies of men are finite and they will pass away; the spirit-man is infinite and cannot die. The spirit-man is the Lord of the soul and of the body. When man has conquered every foe upon the plane of soul, the seed will have full opened, the bud will have unfolded in the Holy Breath, the flower will have blossomed in the Love of Allah.
