“Read thy Book: There needeth none but thyself to make out an account against thee this day.”



"This station hath many signs, unnumbered proofs. Hence it is said: “Hereafter We will show them Our signs in the regions of the earth, and in themselves, until it become manifest unto them that it is the truth,” 5 and that there is no God save Him.

One must, then, read the book of his own self, rather than some treatise on rhetoric. Wherefore He hath said, 6
“Read thy Book: There needeth none but thyself to make out an account against thee this day.”

-Bahá'u'lláh, The Seven Valleys And the Four Valleys, p. 51

 5. Qur’án 41:53. 
 6. Qur’án 17:15.
