Ere long will the state of affairs within thee [Tihrán] be
changed, and the reins of power fall into the hands of the people. Verily, thy
Lord is the All-Knowing. His authority embraceth all things. Rest thou assured
in the gracious favor of thy Lord. The eye of His loving-kindness shall
everlastingly be directed towards thee. The day is approaching when thy
agitation will have been transmuted into peace and quiet calm. Thus hath it
been decreed in the wondrous Book.
- Baha’u’llah (‘Gleanings from the Writings
of Baha’u’llah’)
