“These daily obligatory prayers, together with a few other specific ones,

such as the Healing Prayer, the Tablet of Aḥmad, have been invested by

Bahá’u’lláh with a special potency and significance, and should therefore

be accepted as such and be recited by the believers with unquestioning

faith and confidence, that through them they may enter into a much closer

communion with God, and identify themselves more fully with His laws and

precepts.”
