142. the hour of dawn # 115

With reference to attending dawn prayers in the &Mashriqu'l-Adhkar, the &Baha'i House of Worship, &Baha'u'llah has explained that, although the actual time specified in the Book of God is "the hour of dawn", it is acceptable at any time from "the earliest dawn of day, between dawn and sunrise, or even up to two hours after sunrise" (Q and A 15).

143. These Tablets are embellished with the seal of

Him Who causeth the dawn to appear, Who lifteth up

His voice between the heavens and the earth. # 117 &Baha'u'llah repeatedly affirms the absolute integrity of His Writings as the Word of God. Some of His Tablets also bear the mark of one of His seals. The &Baha'i World, volume V, p. 4, contains a photograph of a number of &Baha'u'llah's seals.
