O ye that are the
exponents of generosity and the manifestations thereof! Be generous unto them
whom ye find in manifest poverty. O ye that are possessed of riches! Take heed
lest outward appearance deter you from benevolent deeds in the path of God, the
Lord of all mankind.
- Baha’u’llah (The Compilation of Compilation, vol. 1,
Huqúqu'lláh)
