Ascension of ‘Abdu’l-Baha

‘Abdu’l-Baha passed away in Haifa on 28 November, 1921, shortly after 1:00 AM.

In the land that we know as the Holy Land, in all its turbulent history of the last two thousand years, there had never been an event which could unite all its inhabitants of diverse faiths and origins and purposes, in a single expression of thought and feeling, as did the passing of 'Abdu'l-Bahá. Jews and Christians and Muslims and Druzes, of all persuasions and denominations; Arabs and Turks and Kurds and Armenians and other ethnic groups were united in mourning His passing, in being aware of a great loss they had suffered. 
- H.M. Balyuzi  ('Abdu'l-Baha - The Centre of the Covenant')
