and He guided us to the knowledge of our master Muhammad, and our master Muhammad guided us to His knowledge, the Exalted. For this reason, our master Abu Shu'ayb, peace be upon him, said: 'O Guide to His guides.'

His saying: 'O One manifest by His power,' means: O He who manifested through that which proceeds from Him, which is the Power—and the Power is our master Muhammad, His glory is magnificent.

His saying: 'O One hidden by His wisdom,' means: He remained hidden despite His manifestation through wisdom—and the wisdom here is the Gate (al-Bab), who is our master Salman, peace be upon him. The Name was hidden by the Gate despite his existence and manifestation to physical eyes and direct sight, because the Gate was calling to the Name and guiding them to him, a guidance of pointing to an present, existing reality, such that he would say: "This is the Messenger of God, and this is the Prophet of God, and everything he has brought to you is from God, the Exalted."
