In the abundance of Our grace and loving-kindness We have
revealed specially for the rulers and ministers of the world that which is
conducive to safety and protection, tranquillity and peace; haply the children
of men may rest secure from the evils of oppression. He, verily, is the Protector,
the Helper, the Giver of victory. It is incumbent upon the men of God's House
of Justice to fix their gaze by day and by night upon that which hath shone
forth from the Pen of Glory for the training of peoples, the upbuilding of
nations, the protection of man and the safeguarding of his honour. - Baha’u’llah (‘Tablets of Bahá'u'lláh revealed after the Kitab-i-Aqdas’; The
Compilation of Compilations, vol. II, Peace)
