Malice
Beware lest ye give ear to the words of those from whom the foul smell of malice and envy can be discerned; pay no heed to them, and stand ye for righteousness.
- Bahá’u’lláh, The Summons of the Lord of Hosts, p. 199
Purge thy heart from malice and . . . enter the divine court of holiness.
- Bahá’u’lláh, The Persian Hidden Words 42
For malice is a grievous malady which depriveth man from recognizing the Great Being, and debarreth him from the splendors of the sun of certitude. We pray and hope that through the grace and mercy of God He may remove this mighty obstacle. He, verily, is the Potent, the All-Subduing, the Almighty.
- Bahá’u’lláh, Epistle to the Son of the Wolf, p. 96
Quote of the Day
Jalal 5 Sharaf 182 B.E.
God hath imposed a fine on every adulterer and adulteress, to be paid to the House of Justice: nine mithqals of gold, to be doubled if they should repeatthe offence. Such is the penalty which He Who is the Lord of Names hath assigned them in this world; and in the world to come He hath ordained for them a humiliating torment.
Bahá’u’lláh – The Kitáb-i-Aqdas, p. 37
