Morning
We have made Thee [‘Abdu’l-Baha] a shelter for all mankind, a shield unto all who are in heaven and on earth, a stronghold for whosoever hath believed in God, the Incomparable, the All-Knowing. God grant that through Thee He may protect them, may enrich and sustain them, that He may inspire Thee with that which shall be a wellspring of wealth unto all created things, an ocean of bounty unto all men, and the dayspring of mercy unto all peoples.
- Baha’u’llah (Quoted by Shoghi Effendi in ‘The World Order of Baha’u’llah’)
Evening
The glory of God rest upon Thee [‘Abdu’l-Baha] and upon whosoever serveth Thee and circleth around Thee. Woe, great woe, betide him that opposeth and injureth Thee. Well is it with him that sweareth fealty to Thee; the fire of hell torment him who is Thine enemy.
- Baha’u’llah (Quoted by
Shoghi Effendi in ‘The World Order of Baha’u’llah’)
