8 Baha’i Blog Studio Sessions Based on the Prayer “Say God Sufficeth” by the Bab

April 11, 2022, in Articles > Music, by

One of the prayers revealed by the Bab is a prayer often referred to by many as “Say God Sufficeth”, and it reads:

“Say: God sufficeth all things above all things, and nothing in the heavens or in the earth but God sufficeth. Verily, He is in Himself the Knower, the Sustainer, the Omnipotent.”

– The Bab

Over the years, as a part of our Baha’i Blog Studio Sessions, we’ve shared several recordings based on this prayer that are sung in different languages by Baha’is and their friends in different locations around the world.
