It is clear and evident that the payment of the Right of God is
conducive to prosperity, to blessing, and to honour and divine
protection. Well is it with them that comprehend and recognize this
truth and woe betide them that believe not. And this is on condition
that the individual should observe the injunctions prescribed in the
Book with the utmost radiance, gladness and willing acquiescence. It
behoveth you to counsel the friends to do that which is right and
praiseworthy. Whoso hearkeneth to this call, it is to his own behoof,
and whoso faileth bringeth loss upon himself. Verily our Lord of Mercy
is the All-Sufficing, the All-Praised.
