Kindness to a Former Enemy

One of the members of the ‘ill-fated Commission of Inquiry, despatched from Constantinople to seal the fate of ‘Abdu’l-Bahá’, managed later to escape to Egypt, but was robbed by his servant on the way. The Bahá’ís in Cairo gave him financial help, which he had requested. Subsequently he asked help from ‘Abdu’l-Bahá Himself. The Master “immediately directed the believers to present him with a sum on His behalf, an instruction which they were unable to carry out owing to his sudden disappearance.”
