Dearly loved Friends,
The National Spiritual Assembly sends you its loving greetings.
During its last meeting, the Assembly was deeply touched by the beauty and profundity of the following passage from the Universal House of Justice, concerning the spiritual significance of Ḥuqúqu’lláh. It comes from a letter, dated 21 June 2016 from the Universal House of Justice to the International Board of Trustees of Huququ’llah, and the National Assembly has been moved to share it with the friends:
In ordaining the mighty law of Ḥuqúqu’lláh, the Blessed Beauty has vouchsafed a favour unto His ardent lovers through which they can express their personal sense of devotion to God in a profoundly private act of conscience. This sacred law creates a direct and vital link between the individual believer and the Head of the Faith, enables the friends to become firm and steadfast, and, as the beloved Master affirms, exerts “a great influence on their hearts and souls”. Above all, when those privileged to pay the Right of God offer it in a spirit of joy, fellowship, and contentment, it will impart prosperity and protection, purify their worldly possessions, and enable them and their offspring to benefit from the fruits of their endeavours. 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 Ḥuqúqu’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.
In this connection, we also wish to share with you, in the enclosed document, an updated list of Deputies and Representatives for the Regional Board of Ḥuqúqu’lláh. The list identifies the area of responsibility for each Deputy and Representative and includes their contact details.
Should you have any questions or require any assistance regarding the sacred bounty of observing the law of Ḥuqúqu’lláh, please feel free to contact the Deputies or the Representatives for your area.
With loving Bahá’í greetings,
Patrick O’Mara,
Secretary
