18. We have absolved you from the requirement of performing the Prayer of the Signs. # 11 |

|
The Prayer of the Signs is a special form of Muslim
obligatory prayer that was ordained to be said in times of
natural events, like earthquakes, eclipses, and other such
phenomena, which may cause fear and are taken to be signs
or acts of God. The requirement of performing this prayer
has been annulled. In its place a Bahá’í may say, “Dominion
is God’s, the Lord of the seen and the unseen, the Lord of creation,”
but this is not obligatory (Q and A 52).
