The one true God -- exalted be His glory -- hath ever been
and will continue to be exalted above every expression of praise and is
sanctified from the world of existence and all the riches therein. Whatsoever
proceedeth from Him produceth a fruit the benefits of which revert to the
individuals themselves. Ere long will they perceive the truth of that which the
Tongue of Grandeur hath uttered aforetime and will utter hereafter. And such
benefits will indeed accrue if the Huquq is offered with the utmost joy and
radiance and in the spirit of perfect humility and lowliness.
- Baha’u’llah (‘The Compilation of Compilations, vol. 1, Huququ’llah)
