Know thou that
religion is as heaven; and fasting and obligatory prayer are its sun and its
moon. We entreat God, exalted and glorified be He, to graciously aid everyone
who acteth according to His will and good-pleasure.
- Baha’u’llah (Compilation: ‘The Importance of Obligatory Prayer and Fasting’, prepared by the Research
