In the 'Kitab-i-Aqdas'
Baha'u'llah has
stated:
"It is incumbent upon everyone to
write his testament. It behoveth him to adorn its
heading with the Most Great Name, to testify therein to the oneness of God as
manifested in the Day-Spring of His revelation and to set forth such good deeds
as he may wish to be realized, that these may stand as his testimony in the
worlds of Revelation and of Creation and be as a treasure stored up with his
Lord, the Protector, the Trusted One.”
