Provisional Translation

This tablet was sent from ‘Abdu’l-Bahá’ to Shaykh Muhammad Husayn Ahdieh before the third upheaval. It is in ‘Abdu’l-Bahá’s own handwriting.

  • He is God!
  • O thou, the new tree in the Divine Garden!
  • The true feelings of heart and soul
  • cannot be explained by what I write,
  • as it is beyond the world of limitation of place,
  • so, it is better to be brief:
  • Know thou, that as you are the only son
  • of that illumined and erudite scholar,
  • the expectant eyes of many, including mine,
  • await and look forward to your becoming
  • the inimitable and fruitful tree of that stream,
  • possessing the merits of both virtue and nobility.
  • 'Abdu’l-Bahá
