Founded in 1844 in Persia, the Bah�'� Faith teaches the fundamental unity of humankind, of God and of His Religion. Baha'u'llah, the Prophet-Founder of the Bah�'� Faith, has written: |

"Every Prophet Whom the Almighty and Peerless Creator hath purposed to send to the peoples of the earth hath been entrusted with a Message, and charged to act in a manner that would best meet the requirements of the age in which He appeared. God's purpose in sending His Prophets unto men is twofold. The first is to liberate the children of men from the darkness of ignorance, and guide them to the light of true understanding. The second is to ensure the peace and tranquillity of mankind, and provide all the means by which they can be established." -- Baha'u'llah, Gleanings from the Writings of Baha'u'llah, p. 79-80. |

Since their appearance, the teachings of Baha'u'llah have spread to adherents in every country on earth, causing the Bah�'� Faith to become the second most widespread religion in the world. Many excellent websites contain information about the Bah�'� Faith, including online versions of its Sacred Texts and detailed fact sheets on the world-wide Baha'i community.
