Insanity
Ameen, son of Khan's younger sister Hamideh, a direct descendant of the old historian, was not of a lineage to be envied, for it was said that the posterity of that ancestor were under the curse of insanity because of his slanderous attacks on the Faith of the Báb and Bahá’u’lláh.
- Marzieh Gail, Arches of the Years, p. 66
With the love of God all sciences are accepted and beloved, but without it, are fruitless; nay, rather the cause of insanity.
- ‘Abdu’l-Bahá, Bahá’í World Faith, p. 366
Quote of the Day
Jalal 17 Masail 182 B.E.
We realize that a great problem is presented by gossip when it occurs in Bahá’í communities, and the poison it can instill into the relationship between the friends. However, deprivation of voting rights is usually of little help in such circumstances and should be resorted to only after other remedies have been tried and failed.
