The Ba'hai Faith

The Bahá'í Faith is a monotheistic religion emphasizing unity, peace, and the belief that all major world religions share a common foundation. Founded in 19th-century Persia by Bahá'u'lláh, it promotes the idea that humanity is one and that social progress relies on principles like equality, justice, and education. Bahá'ís believe that divine prophets—including Moses, Jesus, Muhammad, and others—have each brought guidance suited for their time, culminating in Bahá'u'lláh's teachings for this era. Central to the faith are the principles of unity of humankind, harmony of science and religion, and world peace.
