Beyond the bestowal of such spiritual benefits upon the
individual, this law promotes the common good and contributes to the
spiritualization of humanity through the promotion of a new attitude towards
the acquisition and use of material resources necessary for great collective
enterprises designed to improve all aspects of life. Indeed, the institution of
Huqúqu’lláh is a key instrument for constructing the foundation and supporting
the structure of the New World Order of Bahá’u’lláh, serving as a powerful
element in the growth of a world civilization.
