Tyrants and invaders are two sides of the same coin; each invites the other and is the cause of its existence. Whoever wishes to protect themselves and their land from the invading enemy will find no stronger fortress, after God, than their own people and family, for they are the beginning and the end. Wars end, kingdoms fall, but the power of hearts endures; no one can create it, nor can anyone destroy it. It is a station that armies cannot reach, nor weapons violate. Let people witness what they will, for where can empty, desolate hearts go before a heart overflowing with love and loyalty?
Is this your security? Is this the security of the sincere, pure defenders of the faith, those who inherited the call of the prophets and the path of the righteous predecessors?

Such is the nature of humankind; they forget the beginnings and the causes, and remember only the results and the ends.

His humiliation was the fruit of his own actions and the actions of those who followed him, leading the nation to the depths of humiliation and disgrace.

And he was not humbled until he had humbled others! His humiliation was the humiliation of one man who received his punishment, and his actions and the actions of his companions had humiliated his nation…
