Fulfillment of certain prophecies in Bahá’u’lláh’s Tablets

As news of the situation in the Balkans reached us, the tenor of the Master’s speech inclined towards explanations of the verses of the Manifest Book. At a public meeting at Mrs. Parsons’s home, He held the book in His hands and explained Bahá’u’lláh’s admonition to Sultan ‘Abdu’l-Aziz and the prophecies about the change of circumstances in Adrianople, asserting that these prophecies were certain to be fulfilled. He also explained the prophecies about the change of circumstances in Tihran and the uprising of its inhabitants, saying that the fulfillment of those prophecies was a clear proof of the vastness of knowledge and the penetrating influence of the Word of God.
