His [Baha’u’llah’s] mission was to change ignorant
fanaticism into Universal love, to establish in the minds of His followers the
basis of the unity of humanity and to bring about in practice the equality of
mankind. He declared that all men were equal under the mercy and bounty of God.
(Abdu’l-Baha, from a talk, London, September 29, 1911; ‘Abdu’l-Baha in
London’)
