‘Abdu’l-Bahá hath
long cherished the desire that a Mashriqu’l-Adhkár be upraised in that region.
Praised be God, thanks to the strenuous efforts of the friends, in recent days
the joyful news of this hath been announced. This service is highly acceptable
at the Threshold of God, for the Mashriqu’l-Adhkár inspiriteth the lovers of
God and delighteth their hearts, and causeth them to become steadfast and firm.
- ‘Abdu’l-Baha (‘Selections from the Writings of ‘Abdu’l-Baha’)
