Bahá’í Quotes

Devotion - to God

It seems fitting, then, that the sacred law [the Law of Huququ'lláh, the Right of God] which enables each one to express his or her personal sense of devotion to God in a profoundly private act of conscience that promotes the common good, which directly connects the individual believer with the Central Institution of the Faith, and which, above all, ensures to the obedient and the sincere the ineffable grace and abundant blessings of Providence, should, at this favorable juncture, be embraced by all who profess their belief in the Supreme Manifestation of God.

Quote of the Day

Idal 15 Rahmat 183 B.E.

No true and faithful Bahá’í should in this day remain idle or seek what would give him comfort or even inner satisfaction. We should be constantly assailing the forces of darkness that have enveloped the earth and hasten the dawn of the new day foretold by Bahá’u’lláh.

Shoghi Effendi quoted in Hooper C. Dunbar’s “Forces of Our Time – The Dynamics of Light and Darkness”
