3.2 “Useful” Sciences

From the Writings of Bahá’u’lláh

51: “It is permissible to study sciences and arts, but such sciences as are…”
It is permissible to study sciences and arts, but such sciences as are useful and would redound to the progress and advancement of the people. Thus hath it been decreed by Him Who is the Ordainer, the All-Wise.
(“Tablets of Bahá’u’lláh Revealed after the Kitáb-i-Aqdas”, p. 26) [51]
