Questions and Answers
32Question:Concerning the restoration and preservation of the two Houses in the Twin Spots, and the other sites wherein the throne hath been established.Answer:By the two Houses is intended the Most Great House and the House of the
Primal Point. As for other sites, the people of the areas where these are situated may choose to preserve either each house wherein the throne hath been established, or one of them.
33Question:Again inquiry hath been made about the inheritance of the teacher.Answer:If the teacher is not of the
people of Bahá, he doth not inherit. Should there be several teachers, the share is to be divided equally amongst them. If the teacher is deceased, his offspring do not inherit his share, but rather two thirds of it revert to the children of the owner of the estate, and the remaining one third to the House of Justice.
34Question:Concerning the residence which hath been assigned exclusively to the male offspring.Answer:If there are several residences, the finest and noblest of these dwellings is the one intended, the remainder being distributed amongst the whole body of the heirs like any other form of property. Any heir, from whichever category of inheritors, who is outside the
Faith of God is accounted as non-existent and doth not inherit.
