Morning
It hath been laid down in the Bayán that marriage is dependent upon the consent of both parties. Desiring to establish love, unity and harmony amidst Our servants, We have conditioned it, once the couple’s wish is known, upon the permission of their parents, lest enmity and rancour should arise amongst them. And in this We have yet other purposes. Thus hath Our commandment been ordained.
- Baha’u’llah (‘The Kitab-i-Aqdas’)
Evening
O ye peoples of the earth! By the righteousness of God, the
True One, the testimony shown forth by His Remembrance is like unto a sun which
the hand of the merciful Lord hath raised high in the midmost heart of the
heaven, wherefrom it shineth in the plenitude of its meridian splendour...
With each and every Prophet Whom We have sent down in the past, We have established a separate Covenant concerning the Remembrance of God and His Day. Manifest, in the realm of glory and through the power of truth, are the Remembrance of God and His Day before the eyes of the angels that circle His mercy-seat.
- The Báb (From the Qayyumu’l-Asma, ‘Selections from the Writings of the Báb)
