Shoghi Effendi Afnan - Baha'i Faith
O ye the faithful loved ones of Abdu'l-Baha! It is incumbent
upon you to take the greatest care of Shoghi Effendi, the twig that hath
branched from and the fruit given forth by the two hallowed and Divine
Lote-Trees, that no dust of despondency and sorrow may stain his radiant
nature, that day by day he may wax greater in happiness, in joy and spirituality,
and may grow to become even as a fruitful tree. For he is, after Abdu'l-Baha,
the Guardian of the Cause of God, the Afnan, the Hands (pillars) of the
Cause and the beloved of the Lord must obey him and turn unto him. He
that obeyeth him not, hath not obeyed God; he that turneth away from him,
hath turned away from God and he that denieth him, hath denied the True
One.
(`Abdu'l-Baha: Will and Testament, page 25)
