LETTER TO KHUSRO PERWEZ, EMPEROR OF
FARS
In the name of Allah, the Compassionate, the Merciful.
From Muhammad, Prophet of Allah to Kisra, King of Fars
May peace be on him who follows the guidance, believes in Allah
and his Prophet. I testify that there is none worthy of worship except Allah,
who is alone and without an associate and Muhammad is His Servant and Prophet.
Allah has made me a Prophet and sent me for the entire world, in order that I
may infuse the fear of Allah in every living person. Accept Islam and be
secure. If you refuse, the sins of all the Zoroastrians shall be your
responsibility.
Seal: Allah's Prophet Muhammad
Note: The shock which his false pride received and his rage at
being thus addressed have been mentioned in some detail elsewhere.
