If during this year harmony is not reestablished between them, then their divorce may be realized....

The foundation of the Kingdom of God is based upon harmony and love, oneness, relationship and union, not upon differences, especially between husband and wife.

If one of these two become the cause of divorce, that one will unquestionably fall into great difficulties, will become the victim of formidable calamities and experience deep remorse.

(Tablet to the Baha'is of America).
In the matter of divorce, as in other matters, Baha'is will, of course, be bound not only by the Baha'i teaching, but also by the laws of the country in which they live.
The Baha'i Calendar Among different peoples and at different times many different methods have been adopted for the measurement of time and fixing of dates, and several different calendars are still in daily use, e.g., the Gregorian in Western Europe, the Julian in many countries of Eastern Europe, the Hebrew among the Jews, and the Muhammadan in Muslim communities.
The Bab signalized the importance of the dispensation which He came to herald, by inaugurating a new calendar.

In this, as in the Gregorian Calendar, the lunar month is abandoned and the solar year is adopted.
The Baha'i year consists of 19 months of 19 days each (i.e.361 days), with the addition of certain "Intercalary Days" (four in ordinary and five in leap years) between the eighteenth and nineteenth months in order to adjust the calendar to the solar year.
