Prayer to Dispel the Darkness of War

O GOD, my God! Thou seest how black darkness is enshrouding all regions, how all countries are burning with the flame of dissension, andthe fire of war and carnage is blazing throughout the East and the West.Blood is flowing, corpses bestrew the ground, and severed heads arefallen on the dust of the battlefield.

O Lord! Have pity on these ignorant ones and look upon them with the eye of forgiveness and pardon. Extinguish this fire, so that thesedense clouds which obscure the horizon may be scattered, the Sun of Realityshine forth with the rays of conciliation, this intense gloom be dispelled andthe resplendent light of peace shed its radiance upon all countries.

O Lord! Draw up the people from the abyss of the ocean of hatred and enmity, and deliver them from this impenetrable darkness. Unitetheir hearts, and brighten their eyes with the light of peace andreconciliation. Deliver them from the depths of war and bloodshed, and freethem from the darkness of error. Remove the veil from their eyes, and enlightentheir hearts with the light of guidance. Treat them with Thy tender mercy andcompassion, and deal not with them according to Thy justice and wrath whichcause the limbs of the mighty to quake.

O Lord! Wars have persisted. Distress and anxiety have waxed great and every flourishing region is laid waste.

O Lord! Hearts are heavy, and souls are in anguish. Have mercy on these poor souls and do not leave them to the excesses of their owndesires.

O Lord! Make manifest in Thy lands humble and submissive souls, their faces illumined with the rays of guidance, severed from the world,extolling Thy Name, uttering Thy praise, and diffusing the fragrance of Thyholiness amongst mankind. 58

O Lord! Strengthen their backs, gird up their loins, and enrapture their hearts with the most mighty signs of Thy love.

O Lord! Verily, they are weak, and Thou art the Powerful and the Mighty; they are impotent, and Thou art the Helper and the Merciful.

O Lord! The ocean of rebellion is surging, and these tempests will not be stilled save through Thy boundless grace which hath embraced allregions.

O Lord! Verily, the people are in the abyss of passion, and naught can save them but Thine infinite bounties.

O Lord! Dispel the darkness of these corrupt desires, and illumine the hearts with the lamp of Thy love through which all countries willerelong be enlightened. Confirm, moreover, Thy loved ones, those who, leavingtheir homelands, their families and their children, have, for the love of ThyBeauty, traveled to foreign countries to diffuse Thy fragrances and promulgateThy teachings. Be Thou their companion in their loneliness, their helper in astrange land, the remover of their sorrows, their comforter in calamity. BeThou a refreshing draught for their thirst, a healing medicine for their illsand a balm for the burning ardor of their hearts.

Verily, Thou art the Most Generous, the Lord of grace abounding, and, verily, Thou art the Compassionate and the Merciful.59

(Abdu'l-Baha, Tablets of the Divine Plan, p. 57)
