“The Sun of Truth hath risen to illumine the whole earth…”


ای اهل عالم طلوع شمس حقیقت محض نورانیت عالم است و ظهور رحمانیت در انجمن بنی آدم نتیجه و ثمر مشکور و سنوحات مقدسه هر فیض موفور رحمت صرف است و موهبت بحت و نورانیت جهان و جهانیان ائتلاف و التیام است و محبت و ارتباط بلکه رحمانیت و یگانگی و ازاله بیگانگی و وحدت با جمیع من علی الارض در نهایت ازادگی و فرزانگی
(منتخباتی از مکاتیب حضرت عبدالبهاء)

O peoples of the world! The Sun of Truth hath risen to illumine the whole earth, and to spiritualize the community of man. Laudable are the results and the fruits thereof, abundant the holy evidences deriving from this grace. This is mercy unalloyed and purest bounty; it is light for the world and all its peoples; it is harmony and fellowship, and love and solidarity; indeed it is compassion and unity, and the end of foreignness; it is the being at one, in complete dignity and freedom, with all on earth. 
- ‘Abdu’l-Baha  (‘Selections from the Writings of ‘Abdu’l-Baha)
