Say: O people, do ye imagine that, after rejecting the One
through Whom the religions of the world have been made manifest, ye still bear
allegiance to the Faith of God? By the
righteousness of God! Ye are accounted among the inmates of the Fire. Thus hath
the decree been recorded in the Tablets by the Pen of God. Say: Never will the barking of dogs deter the
Nightingale from warbling its melodies.
Ponder awhile that perchance ye may discover a path leading to the
Eternal Truth.
- Baha’u’llah (‘The Summons of the Lord of Hosts’)
