There are different
religions in Persia, such as Muslims, Christians, Jews, Zoroastrians, and
different sects. Through the power of Bahá'u'lláh such affection and love is
produced among these various religions that now they are associating with each
other with the utmost unity and concord like unto fathers, sons, brothers,
mothers and daughters. Whenever they gather in a meeting if a stranger enters
in that gathering he is astonished by the love and affection that they
manifest. There, is not the slightest sign of difference and separation.
- ‘Abdu’l-Baha (From a Tablet addressed
to Albert Smiley, the founder of Lake Mohonk Conference on International
Arbitration; Star of the West, vol. 2, no. 15, December 12, 1911)
