Upon ye be Baha’u’l-Abha!
He is God.
O ye who are attracted to the Kingdom of Abha!
Verily, I have read your letter, which indicates illumined consciences and hearts filled with the love of God. Blessed are ye, for ye have attained to a Bounty which was the desire of the greatest holy men in past centuries and which is befitting for those who are like unto ye.
Verily, I ask God to make ye the signs of guidance among mankind and to bestow upon ye stability and uprightness.
Perhaps papers of doubts will come to ye from souls who have emerged from the Kingdom of God. Care ye not therein. Arise with a firm foot in the Covenant, in order that the people of hypocrisy becomes hopeless, even if they should come with the greatest intrigues, evil suggestions and discords.
This is what we inform ye in the days of tests...
(Signed) ‘Abdu’l-Baha Abbas
