God has ordained that in every city they make a House of Justice, and the souls according to the number of al-Baha' will assemble in it. There is no harm if the number increases. They shall see as though they are entering the presence of God, the High, the Most High. And they shall see Him who is not seen. They must be stewards of the Merciful among (those in the realm of) the possible and agents of God for the whole earth.

And God has ordained that they shall consult about the welfare of creatures (al-'ibad) for the sake of God, just as they consult about their own affairs, and that they choose what is the choice.

Thus commanded your Lord, the Mighty One, the Forgiver.

Beware lest you neglect what is inscribed in the Tablet. [note 1] Fear God, O you who see.
