The institution of the House of Justice consists of elected
councils which operate at the local, national and international levels of
society. Bahá’u’lláh ordains both the Universal House of Justice and the Local
Houses of Justice in the Kitáb-i-Aqdas. ‘Abdu’l-Bahá, in His Will and
Testament, provides for the Secondary (National or Regional) Houses of Justice
and outlines the method to be pursued for the election of the Universal House
of Justice.

Kitab-i-Aqdas’)
