Lawh-i-Tibb
Lawh-i-Tibb, Tablet to a Physician or Tablet of Medicine is a tablet of Bahá'u'lláh to Áqá Mírzá Muhammad-Ridáy-i-Tabib-i-Yazdí, a doctor of the old school of medicine. It was written in Akká between 1870 and 1875.[1]
In this tablet, Bahá'u'lláh gives advice on eating habits and emotions, and the need for medical treatment. It includes a well-known healing prayer by Bahá'u'lláh:[2]
| “ | Thy Name is my healing, O my God, and remembrance of Thee is my remedy. Nearness to Thee is my hope, and love for Thee is my companion. Thy mercy to me is my healing and my succour in both this world and the world to come. Thou, verily, art the All-Bountiful, the All-Knowing, the All-Wise. | ” |
