Become ye intoxicated with the wine of the love of God, and not with that which deadeneth your minds, O ye that adore Him! Verily, it hath been forbidden unto every believer, whether man or woman.... (Bahá'u'lláh, cited in Shoghi Effendi, ‘The Advent of Divine Justice’; The Compilation of Compilations, vol. I, A Chase and Holy Life)
