what does the Baha'i Faith stand for?

Answer 1

The religion of Baha'i is based on the teachings of a prophet named Bahaullah in 19th century persia. Basically, he wrongly spent several years in a prison and had somewhat of a revelation- much like that of buddah. His aim is for the unity of mankind as well as the unity of all cutures and religions and of course, the unity of God. To me it is quite similar to the Unitarian Universalist religion which is a much more widely practiced religion here in the states- and the religion that i practice as well.

Answer 2

Baha means Glory. The Baha'i faith is a new world independent religion founded by The Manifestation of God: Baha'u'llah.We want Unity in Diversity, peace in the whole world.


Founded a century and a half ago, the Bahá’í Faith is today among the fastest-growing of the world’s religions. With more than five million followers, who reside in virtually every nation on earth, it is the second-most widespread faith, surpassing every religion but Christianity in its geographic reach. Bahá’ís reside in more than 100,000 localities around the world, an expansion that reflects their dedication to the ideal of world citizenship.

What does the Baha'i Faith stand for?

Answer 4

The Bahá'í Faith is the youngest of the world's main religions. It was founded in Iran during the mid 19th century by Siyyid 'Ali-Muhammad (1819-1850 CE). He assumed the title Bab ("the Gate") and prophesized the future arrival of "One greater than Himself." One of the Bab's followers, Mirza Husayn-'Ali-i-Nuri (1817-1892), announced that he was the Manifestation predicted by the Bab. He assumed the title Baha'u'llah ("glory of God"). His teachings on world peace, democracy, civil rights, equal rights for women, the acceptance of scientific discoveries, etc. were decades ahead of his time.

Bahá'ís believe in a single God who has repeatedly sent prophets into the world through whom he has revealed the "Word of God." Prophets include Adam, Krishna, Buddha, Yeshua of Nazareth (Jesus), Mohammed, The Bab and Baha'u'llah.

The Bahá'í faith is still looked upon by many Muslims as a breakaway sect of Islam.
