50. the number of Bahá #30
51. It behoveth them to be the trusted ones of the Merciful among men #30 52. take counsel together #30 53. Build ye houses of worship throughout the lands #31 54. The Lord hath ordained that those of you who are able shall make pilgrimage to the sacred House #32 55. and from this He hath exempted women as a mercy on His part #32 56. to engage in some occupation #33 57. The kissing of hands hath been forbidden in the Book. #34 58. To none is it permitted to seek absolution from another soul #34 59. Amongst the people is he who seateth himself amid the sandals by the door whilst coveting in his heart the seat of honour. #36 60. And among the people is he who layeth claim to inner knowledge #36 61. How many a man hath secluded himself in the climes of India, denied himself the things that God hath decreed as lawful, imposed upon himself austerities and mortifications #36 62. Whoso layeth claim to a Revelation direct from God, ere the expiration of a full thousand years #37 63. This is that of which We gave you forewarning when We were dwelling in âIráq, then later while in the Land of Mystery, and now from this Resplendent Spot. #37 64. Amongst the people is he whose learning hath made him proud ... who, when he heareth the tread of sandals following behind him, waxeth greater in his own esteem #41 65. Nimrod #41 66. Aghsán #42 67. revert to the people of Bahá #42 68. Shave not your heads #44 69. it is not seemly to let the hair pass beyond the limit of the ears |
