"There is nothing sweeter in the world of existence than prayer. Man must live in a state of prayer. The most blessed condition is the condition of prayer and supplication. Prayer is conversation with God. The greatest attainment or the sweetest state is none other than conversation with God"
 

ʻAbdu'l-Bahá

Prayer, Worship and Service

Prayer and worship are central aspects of Bahá’í life, both as individuals and as a community. The Bahá’í Writings state that prayer, in its highest form, is an expression of love and gratitude for one’s Creator. Prayer can be likened to food for the soul and is a means of attracting divine assistance and blessings. Prayer is not limited to words, but is a state of being that, ultimately, finds expression in our deeds.

 

Prayer and worship cannot be divorced from service to humanity and action, since both are vital to fostering a vibrant and dynamic community life that seeks to build greater material and spiritual prosperity for all.
