Bahá’í Quotes

Decency

Such a chaste and holy life, with its implications of modesty, purity, temperance, decency and clean-mindedness, involves no less than the exercise of moderation in all that pertains to dress, language, amusements, and all artistic and literary avocations. It demands daily vigilance in the control of one's carnal desires and corrupt inclinations.

Quote of the Day

Jalal 18 Rahmat 183 B.E.

But we must persevere and do our best knowing this is our duty and that conditions will eventually change completely and follow Bahá’u’lláh's Pattern.
