The Bahá'í Temple in 'Ishqábád (now Ashgabat, Turkmenistan) was damaged by an earthquake. The strength of the Mashriqu'l-Adhkár saved it from the devastating earthquake which demolished all dwellings. It was the only building of stature which, although damaged, withstood the earthquake's completely destructive effects [BBD 122; BW14:480; YSxvii] - Mashriqu'l-Adhkár (House of Worship); Ashgabat; Earthquakes; Mashriqu'l-Adhkár, Ishqabad; Turkmenistan
