“O ye who are chosen! O ye who are firm! O ye who…” |
I send you the glad-tidings of the erection of the
Temple of worship (Mashrak-el-Azcar) in Ishkabad
[Russia], with all joy and great happiness. The friends
of God assembled together with rejoicing and conveyed
the stones themselves, upon their backs, while attracted
by the love of God and for the glory of God. Soon
that great Temple will be completed and the voice of
prayer and praise shall ascend to the sublime Kingdom.

I was rejoiced through your endeavors in this glorious
cause, made with joy and good interest. I pray
God to aid you in exalting His Word and in establishing
the Temple of Worship, through His grace and
19
ancient mercy. Verily you are the first to arise for this
glorious cause in that vast region. Soon will ye see the
spread of this enterprise in the world and its resounding
voice shall go through the ears of the people in all parts.
