To His [Baha’u’llah’s] Dispensation the sacred books of the
followers of Zoroaster had referred as that in which the sun must needs be
brought to a standstill for no less than one whole month. To Him Zoroaster must
have alluded when, according to tradition, He foretold that a period of three
thousand years of conflict and contention must needs precede the advent of the
World-Savior Sháh-Bahrám, Who would triumph over Ahriman and usher in an era of
blessedness and peace.
- Shoghi Effendi (‘God Passes By’)
