Morning
We have been informed that thou hast forbidden the trading in slaves, both men and women. This, verily, is what God hath enjoined in this wondrous Revelation. God hath, truly, destined a reward for thee, because of this. He, verily, will pay the doer of good his due recompense, wert thou to follow what hath been sent unto thee by Him Who is the All-Knowing, the All-Informed.
- Baha'u'llah (Tablet to Queen
Victoria, Suriy-i-Haykal [Tablet of Temple]; ‘The Summons of the Lord of
Hosts’)
Evening
Lay aside thy desire, and set then thine heart towards thy Lord, the Ancient of Days. We make mention of thee for the sake of God, and desire that thy name may be exalted through thy remembrance of God, the Creator of earth and heaven. He, verily, is witness unto that which I say.
- Baha'u'llah (Tablet to Queen Victoria,
Suriy-i-Haykal [Tablet of Temple]; ‘The Summons of the Lord of Hosts’)
