Tablets of Abdul-Baha Abbas
Volume I
By the Life of God! Verily I love thee with all my heart and pray for thee every eve and morn that the forgiving Lord may enable thee to serve in His excellent vineyard and make thee a sign of His signs, to cause thee to deliver His Cause, diffuse His breath (and I beg of Him) to strengthen thine honorable wife to that which behooveth these days. Verily He is the Giver of Confirmation in all circumstances!
O thou who art assuredly believing in God!
Verily, I read thy brilliant letter and thanked God for that He hath created a maid-servant for
Baha, who prays for
Abdul-Baha and beg[s] the confirmation and assistance of God in his behalf, because I am earnestly fond of the prayer of the maid-servants of God in my behalf and of their asking the blessing of God for this servant!
I begged of God to ordain all good unto thee for thy praying for Abdul-Baha.
O thou who art turning unto the Kingdom of God, and looking unto the
Day-spring of the lights of God!
I, with the utmost joy and cheerfulness, have perused the contents of thy letter, which shows thy faith in God, thy assurance in the Kingdom of God, the gladness of thy breast in hearing the voice of God and the adherence of thy heart to the word of God.
