September 8. On this date in 1999, the UHJ wrote "As to the specific concern that prompted your inquiry, the use of funds from Huqúqu’lláh, the disbursement of which is entirely at the discretion of the Head of the Faith, entails a wide range of applications that will eventually address various needs of society in ways that will also contribute toward the solution of economic problems. However, it is much too early in the worldwide observance of the Law, and is not possible in the current state of the Bahá’í community or of society, for the House of Justice to elaborate on these details. For the time being, the Huqúqu’lláh is used principally for the work of the Bahá’í community, which, of course, includes its initial efforts at social and economic development."
