The Right of God

“Huqúqu’lláh is indeed a great law. It is incumbent upon all to make this offering, because it is the source of grace, abundance, and of all good. It is a bounty which shall remain with every soul in every world of the worlds of God, the All-Possessing, the All-Bountiful.” – Bahá’u’lláh, Huqúqu’lláh – The Right of God, p.5.

In response to guidance from the International Board of Trustees, the Board of Trustees of Huqúqu’lláh in Canada has set up a centralized system of receipting and recording of payments at the Treasury Department of the Bahá’í National Centre. Payments of the Right of God (Huqúqu’lláh) are not processed through individual Deputies or Representatives.

Payments should be sent directly to the Huqúqu’lláh Treasury at the Bahá’í National Centre, 7200 Leslie Street, Thornhill, ON, L3T 6L8. The Huqúqu’lláh Treasury will issue one receipt, which will serve both as an acknowledgment receipt and as an official tax receipt. It is up to the individual to determine whether or not she/he wishes to use the receipt when filing her/his income tax return. Cheques, bank drafts, bank and/or postal money orders should be made payable to “Canadian Bahá’í Fund” earmarked “Huqúqu’lláh” or “Right of God.” Payments to the Right of God can also be made utilizing the Online Contribution System. The individual’s Bahá’í identification number must be provided on all payments.

Payments should not be made through a Local Spiritual Assembly.
