"The gift of God to this enlightened age is the knowledge of the oneness of mankind and of the fundamental oneness of religion. War shall cease between nations, and by the will of God the Most Great Peace shall come; the world will be seen as a new world, and all men will live as brothers."

The Bab "O my God! O my God! Unite the hearts of Thy servants, and reveal to them Thy great purpose. May they follow Thy commandments and abide in Thy law. Help them, O God, in their endeavor, and grant them strength to serve Thee. O God! Leave them not to themselves, but guide their steps by the light of Thy knowledge, and cheer their hearts by Thy love. Verily, Thou art their Helper and their Lord." Bahá’u’lláh2 Footnotes |
Fiḍál (Grace), 12 Mashíyyat (Will) 176 B.E. - Tuesday, October 8, 2019 The Dispensation of The Bab I contemplate the Dispensation of the Bab, meditate upon the sacrifices by those who met and those who did not meet Him. Tahirih heard Him speak in her dream and did not hesitate to accept His station. Tahirih dedicated poems to Him, removed her veil, and gave up her life. Baha'u'llah read the Bab's words in a tablet and knew that they were true. Baha'u'llah lost all His wealth, was chained in the Black Pit of Tehran, had a vision that foretold His future glory, and was banished from His native lane. Anis stood beside the Bab on the day of His execution, felt the bullets penetrate his flesh. and, without regret, died with his Lord. |
