Abstract Arabic terms such as "Alláh-u-Abhá", "Yá Bahá’u’l-Abhá", “Mashriqu’l-Adhkár," "Ḥazíratu’l-Quds," and "Bahá" should generally not be translated into other languages, for translations are too inadequate.
Notes Contributed by recipient; original PDF on file. Title "Translation of Key Bahá'í Terms" added for this online version, not in original. Later published in Lights of Irfan 17.
