A prayer ‘Abdu’l-Baha asked believers to say for Him

From a talk

“The essence of the intention is that I wish you to pray for me and I will pray for you. The pathway we shall walk together is the pathway of the disciples of Christ…
…Now therefore I will pray for you and you must pray for me:

‘O Baha’u’llah! This is ‘Abdu'l-Baha! Confirm ‘Abdu'l-Baha in Thy Threshold! Strengthen him in loyalty to Thee! Make him self-sacrificing! Make him homeless, and without rest! Fill his heart with Thy love, so he will forget all else save Thee, -- seeking no other comfort, grace, health or life, and sacrificing all for Thee!’

Pray in this manner for me and I will pray so for you.”
- ‘Abdu’l-Baha  (From a talk, June 11, 1912, 309 West 78 Street, New York City; Star of the West, vol. 4, no. 2, April 9, 1913)
