MESSAGE:
The Universal House of Justice was deeply saddened to learn of the passing of consecrated follower of Baha’u’llah Redwan Moqbel. His many years of highly valued service to the Cause, beginning in the days of his youth in Iraq, later in Scotland, and then in England and Canada, and in such varied capacities as a National Spiritual Assembly member and officer, an Auxiliary Board member, and an illumined teacher and outstanding speaker, are recalled with profound admiration.
Especially notable were his abiding love of God and keen intellect–capacities that enabled him in the course of a distinguished career in medical science to touch the hearts and inspire the minds of colleagues and students. Kindly convey to his wife, Shar, his children, and friends the heartfelt condolences of the House of Justice and assure them of its ardent supplications at the Sacred Threshold for the progress of his noble soul in the divine realms.
