Description
Four groups of people have earned titles over the history of the Bahá'í Faith, fromthe Declaration of the Báb to the election of the Universal House of Justice. Thesegroups are the Letters of the Living, the Apostles of Bahá'u'lláh, the Disciples of'Abdu'l-Bahá and the Knights of Bahá'u'lláh. Unlike the Hands of the Cause whowere designated as such for their loyalty, dedication and knowledge, and were partof an Institution given distinct duties, those named in the four groups earned theirtitles by arising on their own initiative to do what had to be done at four differenttimes of the Faith's development.
The Apostles came from Islamic backgrounds and lived during a time ofintense physical suffering when thousands of Bábís and Bahá'ís in Persiawere imprisoned, tortured and martyred. Their own stories are filled withsevere tests and persecution, and yet they gleam with transcendent qualities:complete detachment from the things of this world, tranquillity and steadfastnessin the face of bi er opposition, sacrifice of everything except their faith in theRevelation of Bahá'u'lláh, and an indomitable passion for teaching the Faithat all costs. This book explores the lives of these valiant men designated as'Apostles of Bahá'u'lláh' in the photo montage compiled for the Bahá'í WorldVolumes by Shoghi Effendi.
