Restrictions: None
Gender Equality: To 'Abdu'l-Baha
Gender Equality:
To 'Abdu'l-Baha

"The Tenth Principle of the teaching of Bahá’u’lláh is the equality of the sexes."
'Abdu'l-Baha123

Gender equality
a branch on the Tree of Life,
proclaimed by Baha'u'llah
and taught by 'Abdu'l-Baha.

Gender equality--
a foundation stone
in the temple of Divine Justice--
means that in all aspects of life
woman and men
are absolutely equal,
because the Creator
makes no distinction between
female and male.
