On Places of Worship

“The wisdom in raising up such buildings is that at a given hour, the people should know it is time to meet, and all should gather together, and, harmoniously attuned one to another, engage in prayer;”

'Abdu'l-Bahá · Selections from the Writings of 'Abdu'l-Bahá

'Abdu'l-Bahá's ministry (1892–1921) · 1 min

Thou hast asked about places of worship and the underlying reason therefor. The wisdom in raising up such buildings is that at a given hour, the people should know it is time to meet, and all should gather together, and, harmoniously attuned one to another, engage in prayer; with the result that out of this coming together, unity and affection shall grow and flourish in the human heart.
