Bahá’í Quotes

Bahá’u’lláh Hurts

I sorrow not for the vexations I endure for love of Thee, nor feel perturbed by the calamities that overtake me in Thy path. My grief is rather because Thou delayest to fulfill what Thou hast determined in the Tablets of Thy Revelation, and ordained in the books of Thy decree and judgment.

- Bahá’u’lláh, Prayers and Meditations by Bahá’u’lláh, p. 10

My imprisonment doeth Me no harm, neither the tribulations I suffer, nor the things that have befallen Me at the hands of My oppressors. That which harmeth Me is the conduct of those who, though they bear My name, yet commit that which maketh My heart and My pen to lament.

- Bahá’u’lláh, Epistle to the Son of the Wolf, p. 23

Set ye aside My love, and commit what grieveth Mine heart? What is it that hindereth you from comprehending what hath been revealed unto you by Him Who is the All-Knowing, the All-Wise?

- Bahá’u’lláh, Gleanings from the Writings of Bahá’u’lláh, p. 307
