The History of Bahá’í The Báb Bahá'u'lláh Abdu'l-Bahá Shoghi Effendi The House of Justice

Primary Beliefs Monotheistic Religion Unity http://www.bahai.us/video/ Equality Harmony of Science and Religion

Holy Texts The writings of the Báb and Bahá'u'lláh All scriptures of other faiths Especially the Qur'an

Relationship to Divine The Point of the Bahá’í Life is to love and to know God Meditation Prayer Fasting No clergy No sacraments No liturgy And almost no rituals Only 3 rituals Daily Prayers Prayer said at the funeral for the dead The Marriage rite

Politics Not allowed to hold a government job, it usually brings up “conflict and contempt” This doesn’t permit them from taking social positions House of Justice No nominations No campaigning

Bahá’í Practice Daily Prayers Holy Days 9 holidays

Holy Scriptures recommend that Bahá’ís come together every morning for prayer This usually only happens on holy days Especially the 19 day feast “Every nineteen days, the evening before the first day of each Bahá'í month, all of the Bahá'ís of a particular community meet at one of their houses, or the local Bahá'í centre, for a Feast.” http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tKzMvYLmbzk
