"These daily obligatory prayers, together with a few other specific ones,
such as the Healing Prayer, the Tablet of Ahmad, have been invested by
Baha'u'llah with a special potency and significance, and should therefore
be accepted as such and be recited by the believers with unquestioning
faith and confidence, that through them they may enter into a much closer
communion with God, and identify themselves more fully with His laws and
precepts."
--From a letter written on behalf of Shoghi Effendi
He is the King, the All-Knowing, the Wise! Lo, the Nightingale of Paradise
singeth upon the twigs of the Tree of Eternity, with holy and sweet
melodies, proclaiming to the sincere ones the glad tidings of the nearness
of God, calling the believers in the Divine Unity to the court of the
Presence of the Generous One, informing the severed ones of the message
which hath been revealed by God, the King, the Glorious, the Peerless,
guiding the lovers to the seat of sanctity and to this resplendent Beauty.
Verily this is that Most Great Beauty, foretold in the Books of the
Messengers, through Whom truth shall be distinguished from error and the
wisdom of every command shall be tested.
