It is mentioned in the Gospel that a man called His
Holiness, Christ, "Good Master.'' His Holiness said unto him, ''Why
callest thou Me good? None is good save One, that is God." So ‘Abdu'l-Baha
wishes a sin covering eye and conceals the people's faults as far as possible;
for he considers himself incapable and deficient in the Servitude of the Lord.
Therefore, being engaged in his own short comings, he does not care about the sins
of others, but always asks remission and forgiveness for them, and seeks bounty
and grace in their behalf. - ‘Abdu’l-Baha (From a Tablet; Star of the West, vol.
2, no. 16, December 31, 1911)
