SHORT OBLIGATORY PRAYER

TO BE RECITED ONCE IN TWENTY-FOUR HOURS, AT NOON
 
I bear witness, O my God, that Thou hast created me to know Thee and to worship Thee. I testify, at this 101 moment, to my powerlessness and to Thy might, to my poverty and to Thy wealth.
 
There is none other God but Thee, the Help in Peril, the Self-Subsisting.

(Prayers and Meditations by Bahá’u’lláh, CLXXXI)
