A Tablet of Bahá’u’lláh Revealed on the Ninth Day of Ridván

What follows is my provisional translation (in other words, not official or authorized; see here for more) of a Tablet by Bahá’u’lláh, the original text of which has been published in Áyát-i-Iláhí, vol. 2, p. 44

The blessed Lote-Tree is mentioning one of His leaves, that this divine remembrance may cause her to attain the limitless outpourings of God’s grace. On this morn of a Riḍván day, the Ancient Beauty is occupied with mentioning His leaves. The handmaids of God must today, with perfect sanctity and purity, celebrate the praise of the Best-Beloved of the worlds, accounting all else but Him, the True One, as utter nothingness and a thing forgotten. Any soul who, in this Day, attaineth to the love of God hath attained to all good, and is the possessor of every beloved thing. Strive that, by the aid of God, thou mayest guard this transcendent and most sublime station through the power of His Name.

[Revealed on] the Ninth Day of Riḍván.

A typescript of the original Persian text of the Tablet appears below (all punctuation and vowel marks mine).

سدرۀ مبارکه يکی از ورقات را ذکر می‌نمايد تا ذکرِ الهی او را به فيوضاتِ نامتناهيۀ ربّانيّه فائز فرمايد. در اين صبحِ يومِ رضوان جمالِ قدم به ذکرِ ورقاتِ خود مشغول است. بايد اماء الله اليوم به کمالِ تقديس و تنزيه به ثنایِ محبوبِ عالميان ناطق شوند، جز حقّ را معدوم شمرند و مفقود دانند. هر نفسی اليوم به محبّت اللّه فائز شد به کلِّ خير فائز است و صاحبِ جميعِ آنچه محبوب است. جهد نمائيد تا به اعانتِ حقّ اين مقامِ بلندِ اعلی را به اسمش حفظ نمائيد.

نُهُمِ رضوان
