 so i have written this book for you describing to you in it the natures upon which creation was created and upon which all creatures were created. they are equal in it and are compelled to exist within themselves and are in agreement in the knowledge of what is generated from it.
فألفت لك كتابي هذا إليك، وأنا واصف لك فيه الطبائع التي ركب عليها الخلق، وفطرت عليها البرايا كلهم، فهم فيها مستوون، وإلى وجودها في أنفسهم مضطرون، وفي المعرفة بما يتولد عنها متفقون.
