"Festival observed... to commemorate Bahá'u'lláh's appointment of 'Abdu'l-Bahá as the Centre of the Covenant. 'Abdu'l-Bahá had instructed that His own birthday should not be celebrated because it falls on the Declaration of the Báb and that day should be devoted to the Báb's anniversary. At the believers' request 'Abdu'l-Bahá gave them the Day of the Covenant to observe in His honour... Suspension of work is not obligatory on this Holy Day."

– from A Basic Bahá'í Dictionary (1989)
