April 2. On this date in 1995, Sen McGlinn presented a paper titled "Inheritance Laws of the Kitab-i-Aqdas,"which notes several quotes from 'Abdu'l-Bahá permitting polygamy like "the Divine Book the right of having two wives is lawful and legal. This was never prohibited, but it is legitimate and allowed," and "Concerning bigamy, this has been promulgated, and no one must abrogate it. 'Abdu'l-Bahá has not abrogated this law. These are false accusations and lies [spread by] the friends. What I have said is that He [Bahá'u'lláh] has made bigamy bound on a precondition."
