As a fellow Baha’i pioneer in the Cameroons, I would occasionally meet Vajiheh at teaching conferences, the National Convention or when our families visited each other , as we lived in different cities of Cameroon. I was particularly struck by the way she expressed her thoughts when teaching the Faith. It was done with complete humility and utter kindness, as if she was offering a precious gift to everyone. She followed to the letter the following words from the Holy Writings of the Baha’i Faith,
“Consort with all men, O people of Bahá, in a spirit of friendliness and fellowship. If ye be aware of a certain truth, if ye possess a jewel, of which others are deprived, share it with them in a language of utmost kindliness and goodwill. If it be accepted, if it fulfill its purpose, your object is attained….. A kindly tongue is the lodestone of the hearts of men. It is the bread of the spirit, it clotheth the words with meaning, it is the fountain of the light of wisdom and understanding.” – Bahah’u’llah
May God envelope her in His mercy and grace as she makes her eternal journey in the Heavenly Kingdom.
