We “must not look to the faults of others”
You must not look to
the faults of others; you must look with the eye of forgiveness and pardon. The
eye that regards faults sees nothing but faults and the eye that overlooks
faults is fixed on the Creator of the souls. It is He Who has created all, has
nurtured all, has endowed all with life and spirit and has given to all eyes
and ears. Thus all are the signs of His power and for His sake we must love
all, and show kindness to all, assist the poor, render help to the weak, heal
the sick and educate the ignorant. (Parting words of ‘Abdu’l-Baha to Baha’is
of Chicago, May 5, 1912; Mahmud’s Diary. P. 81)
