Sublimity of God and eulogy of Muhammad

[و منها في ذكر النبي (صلى الله عليه وآله) :] أَرْسَلَهُ بِالضِّيَاءِ، وَقَدَّمَهُ فِي الاصْطِفَاءِ، فَرَتَقَ بِهِ الْمَفَاتِقَ، وَسَاوَرَ بِهِ الْمُغَالِبَ، وَذَلَّلَ بِهِ الصُّعُوبَةَ، وَسَهَّلَ بِهِ الْحُزُونَةَ، حَتَّى سَرَّحَ الضَّلاَلَ، عَنْ يَمِين وَشِمَال.
[A part of the same sermon about the Prophet :] Allāh deputised the Prophet with light, and accorded him the highest precedence in selection. Through him Allāh united those who were divided, overpowered the powerful, overcame difficulties and levelled rugged ground, and thus removed misguidance from right and left.
