All should know, and in this regard attain the splendours of the sun of
certitude, and be illumined thereby: Women and men have been and will always
be equal in the sight of God. The Dawning-Place of the Light of God sheddeth
its radiance upon all with the same effulgence. Verily God created women for
men, and men for women. The most beloved of people before God are the most
steadfast and those who have surpassed others in their love for God, exalted be
His glory….

The friends of God must be adorned with the ornament of justice, equity,
kindness and love. As they do not allow themselves to be the object of cruelty
and transgression, in like manner they should not allow such tyranny to visit
the handmaidens of God. He, verily, speaketh the truth and commandeth that
which benefitteth His servants and handmaidens. He is the Protector of all in
this world and the next.
(From a Tablet - translated from the Persian and Arabic) [54] |
