Bahá’í Quotes

Recount

Blessed is the soul which, at the hour of its separation from the body, is sanctified from the vain imaginings of the peoples of the world . . . The Maids of Heaven, inmates of the loftiest mansions, will circle around it, and the Prophets of God and His chosen ones will seek its companionship. With them that soul will freely converse, and will recount unto them that which it hath been made to endure in the path of God, the Lord of all worlds.

- Bahá’u’lláh, Gleanings from the Writings of Bahá’u’lláh, p. 155

Quote of the Day

Istiqlal 10 Rahmat 183 B.E.
