In this divine age the bounties of God have encompassed the world of women. Equality of men and women, except in some negligible instances, has been fully and categorically announced. Distinctions have been utterly removed.
- ‘Abdu’l-Baha (From a Tablet, quoted by the Universal House of Justice in a letter dated 28 December 1980 to NSA of New Zealand; ‘Messages from the Universal House of Justice 1963-1986’)
