Prepared by the Research Department, this compilation about the Universal House of Justice comprises extracts from the Writings of Bahá’u’lláh, the Writings and Utterances of ‘Abdu’l-Bahá, and the writings and letters of Shoghi Effendi. Also included are excerpts from the Constitution of the Universal House of Justice as well as from the messages of the House of Justice and letters written on its behalf. The extracts compiled here touch on subjects such as the establishment of the House of Justice, its relationship to the institution of the Guardianship, its infallibility and authority, and its functions and responsibilities.
It is particularly befitting that the release of this compilation comes shortly before the one hundredth anniversary of the Ascension of ‘Abdu’l-Bahá and of the inauguration of the Administrative Order.
