This is the day which God hath announced through the tongue
of His Apostle. Reflect, that thou mayest apprehend what the All-Merciful hath
sent down in the Qur’án and in this inscribed Tablet. This is the day whereon
He Who is the Dayspring of Revelation hath come with clear tokens which none
can number. This is the day whereon every man endued with perception hath
discovered the fragrance of the breeze of the All-Merciful in the world of
creation, and every man of insight hath hastened unto the living waters of the
mercy of His Lord, the King of Kings.
- Baha’u’llah (From the Tablet addressed
to Shaykh Muhammad Báqir, denounced by Bahá’u’lláh as the ‘Wolf’; Tablets of
Baha’u’llah revealed after the Kitab-i-Aqdas’)
