Remember…how, when one of these same companions came before
the King of Ethiopia and recited unto him a Súrih of the Qur’án, he declared to
his attendants: “This, truly, hath been revealed by One Who is All-Knowing and
All-Wise. Whoso acknowledgeth the truth,
and believeth in the teachings of Jesus, can in no wise deny what hath been
recited. We, verily, bear witness to its
truth, even as we bear witness to the truth of that which we possess of the
Books of God, the Help in Peril, the Self-Subsisting.”
- Baha'u'llah (Tablet to
Nasiri’d-Din Shah, Suriy-i-Haykal [Tablet of Temple]; ‘The Summons of the Lord
of Hosts’)
