“God hath created all humankind in His own image”
Know thou, O handmaid, that in the sight of Baha, women are
accounted the same as men, and God hath created all humankind in His own image,
and after His own likeness. That is, men and women alike are the revealers of
His names and attributes, and from the spiritual viewpoint there is no
difference between them. Whosoever draweth nearer to God, that one is the most
favoured, whether man or woman. How many a handmaid, ardent and devoted, hath,
within the sheltering shade of Baha, proved superior to the men, and surpassed
the famous of the earth.
