Book Synopsis The Bab and the Babi Community of Iran by : Fereydun Vahman
Download or read book The Bab and the Babi Community of Iran written by Fereydun Vahman and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2020-11-05 with total page 427 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1844, a young merchant from Shiraz called Sayyid ‘Ali-Muhammad declared himself the ‘gate’ (the Bab) to the Truth and, shortly afterwards, the initiator of a new prophetic cycle. His messianic call attracted a significant following across Iran and Iraq. Regarded as a threat by state and religious authorities, the Babis were subject to intense persecution and the Bab himself was executed in 1850. In this volume, leading scholars of Islam, Baha’i studies and Iranian history come together to examine the life and legacy of the Bab, from his childhood to the founding of the Baha’i faith and beyond. Among other subjects, they cover the Bab’s writings, his Qur’an commentaries, the societal conditions that underlay the Babi upheavals, the works of Babi martyr Tahirih Qurratu’l-‘Ayn, and Orientalist Edward Granville Browne’s encounters with Babi and Baha’i texts.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A selection of testimonials and tributes to 'Abdu'l-Bahá 'Abdu'l-Bahá (1844-1921) was a friend, guide and confidant to all humanity. Those who encountered Him recognized a character of matchless virtue, an all-embracing love and altruism, extraordinary spiritual acuity, and super-human knowledge. Through His personal care for the poor and vulnerable in society, His participation in the discourses of the age, His Writings and His promotion of the Bahá'í Teachings, 'Abdu'l-Bahá was the living embodiment of the Covenant of Bahá'u'lláh, tasked with propagating and preserving the unity of an emerging global religion. As people around the world mark the centenary of 'Abdu'l-Bahá's passing and the completion of the first century of the Formative Age of the Bahá'í Faith, this anthology is designed to increase devotion to 'Abdu'l-Bahá and aid profound reflection on His life, His mission and His unique qualities. Preserved in the testimonials and tributes collected here are the exemplary actions of that single soul out of all humankind who offered a pattern of right living to all people, for all time.
Book Synopsis When the Moon Set Over Haifa by : Angelina Diliberto Allen
Download or read book When the Moon Set Over Haifa written by Angelina Diliberto Allen and published by . This book was released on 2021 with total page 255 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "On November 28, 1921, the head of the Bahá'í Faith, 'Abdu'l-Bahá, passed away. For Bahá'ís, 'Abdu'l-Bahá was more than the leader of their religion. Shoghi Effendi wrote that 'Abdu'l-Bahá was "the Moon of the Central Orb of this most holy Dispensation" (Shoghi Effendi, The World Order of Bahá'u'lláh, p. 134). The night of 'Abdu'l-Bahá's ascension was a night of the waning moon, which illustrates the profound darkness that was felt by those who were present at the time of the passing of 'Abdu'l-Bahá. The darkness would be only temporary, for the passing of 'Abdu'l-Bahá marked the dramatic opening of the Formative Age, a period in the history of humanity that will witness the unfoldment of a religious cycle that will last half a million years (Shoghi Effendi, The World Order of Bahá'u'lláh, pp. 101-102). There were six Western believers in Haifa on the night of the ascension of 'Abdu'l-Bahá: Mr. John Bosch and Mrs. Louise Stapfer Bosch from Geyserville, California; Dr. Florian Krug and Mrs. Grace Krug from New York, and Fraulein Johanna Hauff from Stuttgart. All of them were there as pilgrims. The only other Western believer present in Haifa was Mr. Curtis Kelsey from New York, who was in Haifa to install electrical power plants to light the shrines of the Báb and Bahá'u'lláh. This book tells the story of these believers, how they became Bahá'ís, the circumstances that led them to Haifa, and how their experience at the time of the ascension of 'Abdu'l-Bahá shaped their path of service to the Cause of God. The intent is to give the reader the feeling of being in the holy land, one hundred years ago, when the moon of 'Abdu'l-Bahá set over Haifa"--

Book Synopsis Visiting 'Abdu'l-Baha, Volume 1 by : Earl Redman
Download or read book Visiting 'Abdu'l-Baha, Volume 1 written by Earl Redman and published by George Ronald Publisher Limited. This book was released on 2019 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Among those who visit 'Akká, some have made great forward strides. Lightless candles, they were set alight; withered, they began to bloom; dead, they were recalled to life and went home with tidings of great joy. 'Abdu'l-Bahá . . .each pilgrim brings back information and suggestions of a most precious character, and it is the privilege of all the friends to share in the spiritual results of these visits. Shoghi Effendi This two-volume series on pilgrims who visited 'Abdu'l-Bahá in the Holy Land may be seen as a companion to 'Abdu'l-Bahá in Their Midst, about 'Abdu'l-Bahá's three-year journey (1910-1913) to Egypt, Europe and North America. The present volume covers the time from 1897 until the Master's departure on His journey to the West, while the second volume begins with His return to Haifa at the end of 1913 and covers the time until His passing in 1921. Virtually all pilgrims and many other visitors wrote down what 'Abdu'l-Bahá said, including many of His talks, both formal and informal. Their accounts provide a great wealth of stories that help illustrate who 'Abdu'l-Bahá was in the context of history and how he taught and interacted with others. Most of these accounts come from personal diaries and letters initially written in longhand, though many were later typed. They are to be considered 'pilgrims' notes', but are a fascinating and moving testimony to how 'Abdu'l-Bahá affected and transformed those He met, described in their own words.

Book Synopsis Infinite Horizons by : Kathryn Jewett Hogenson
Download or read book Infinite Horizons written by Kathryn Jewett Hogenson and published by . This book was released on 2022-02-03 with total page 544 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book tells the story of a unique life, of one who was part of a turning point in history and left his indelible imprint on it. It encompasses the sweeping story of the development of the North American Bahá'í community between 1914 and 1959. Horace Holley spent his energies and talents on building a better world, one he knew he would never live long enough to see. Yet this is not simply the story of someone who was exceptionally farsighted, it is the tale of a man who developed an unusual ability to read the times, to perceive and understand what was happening around him in the world and, through putting his thinking into words and action, set in motion revolutionary changes. He stood at the centre of many transitions: in the arts, in war and peace, but most of all, in the development of a new religion - the Bahá'í Faith. From the moment Horace first learned about Bahá'u'lláh and accepted Him, he set about promoting the ideals and teachings of the Bahá'í Faith both within the community of believers and to the public at large, especially among leaders of thought. Securing world peace was perhaps his greatest interest and desire. Exploring how the establishment of international institutions could bring that about, he ultimately concluded that a world government based upon spiritual principles wedded to the elimination of elements of national sovereignty was the only solution. Thus began his efforts, under the guidance of Shoghi Effendi, in the construction of the Bahá'í Administrative Order which he believed in the fullness of time would become the system adopted by the peoples of the world to govern the planet. As the old structures administering the nations were being torn down through two World Wars, Horace Holley was among the handful of devoted Bahá'ís quietly, unnoticed, busily building up the new. He was among the main individuals laying down the foundation stones. He was a champion builder starting the erection of the edifice that would govern mankind in the future, that would save it. Laying the groundwork for the establishment of that embryo of a future world government - the Universal House of Justice - became his overarching objective. In his later life, the word often used to describe him was 'luminous'. Little wonder, then, that in 1951, Shoghi Effendi appointed him to the first contingent of those named as Hands of the Cause of God. As the fortunes of the Bahá'í Faith rise, as the numbers of its adherents and supporters increase, and as its capacity to remake society grows, Horace Holley's accomplishments will be judged with greater clarity. Only then will humanity acknowledge the debt it owes to this quiet spiritual giant.
