Say: O people of God! Adorn your temples with the adornment
of trustworthiness and piety. Help, then, your Lord with the hosts of goodly
deeds and a praiseworthy character. We have forbidden you dissension and
conflict in My Books, and My Scriptures, and My Scrolls, and My Tablets, and
have wished thereby naught else save your exaltation and advancement. Unto this
testify the heavens and the stars thereof, and the sun and the radiance
thereof, and the trees and the leaves thereof, and the seas and the waves
thereof, and the earth and the treasures thereof. We pray God to assist His
loved ones, and aid them in that which beseemeth them in this blest, this
mighty, and wondrous station.
- Baha’u’llah (‘Epistle to the Son of the Wolf’)
