Allah-u-Abha's Interests

the purpose of life is to know and worship God, to acquire virtues, to promote the oneness of mankind, and to carry forward an ever-advancing civilization.
all humanity was created by one God and is part of one human race.
work performed in the spirit of service is a form of worship.
the soul, created at the moment of conception, is destined by God to reach the afterlife where it will continue to progress until it attains the presence of God.

daily prayer and communion with God.
high moral principles, including trustworthiness, chastity and honesty.
independent investigation of Truth.
a life dedicated to the service of humanity.
fellowship with the followers of all religions.

full equality between women and men in all departments of life and at every level of society.

| | Heroes | Being Bahá'í
"To be a Bahá'í simply means to love all the world; to love humanity and try to serve it; to work for universal peace and universal brotherhood." - 'Abdu'l-Bahá
"Be generous in prosperity, and thankful in adversity. Be worthy of the trust of thy neighbor, and look upon him with a bright and friendly face. Be a treasure to the poor, an admonisher to the rich, an answerer to the cry of the needy, a preserver of the sanctity of thy pledge. Be fair in thy judgment, and guarded in thy speech. Be unjust to no man, and show all meekness to all men. Be as a lamp unto them that walk in darkness, a joy to the sorrowful, a sea for the thirsty, a haven for the distressed, an upholder and defender of the victim of oppression. Let integrity and uprightness distinguish all thine acts. Be a home for the stranger, a balm to the suffering, a tower of strength for the fugitive. Be eyes to the blind, and a guiding light unto the feet of the erring. Be an ornament to the countenance of truth, a crown to the brow of fidelity, a pillar of the temple of righteousness, a breath of life to the body of mankind, an ensign of the hosts of justice, a luminary above the horizon of virtue, a dew to the soil of the human heart, an ark on the ocean of knowledge, a sun in the heaven of bounty, a gem on the diadem of wisdom, a shining light in the firmament of thy generation, a fruit upon the tree of humility." - Bahá'u'lláh

About me:
Welcome to the Bahá'í Faith
The Bahá'í Faith is the youngest of the world's independent religions. It is based on the teachings of Bahá'u'lláh (1817-1892), Who is regarded by Bahá'ís as the most recent in a line of Messengers of God that includes Abraham, Moses, Buddha, Zoroaster, Christ, and Muhammad.

Who I'd like to meet:
About Us:
The Bahá'í Faith is the youngest of the world’s independent monotheistic religions. Founded in Iran in 1844, it now has more than 5 million adherents in 236 countries and territories. Bahá'ís come from nearly every national, ethnic and religious background, making the Bahá'í Faith the second-most widespread religion in the world.
Bahá'ís view all the world's major religions as a part of a single, progressive process through which God reveals His will to humanity. The Founder of the Bahá'í Faith, Bahá'u'lláh (1817-1892), is recognized as the most recent in a line of Divine Messengers that stretches back beyond recorded time and includes Abraham, Moses, Buddha, Zoroaster, Christ and Muhammad. The central theme of Bahá'u'lláh's message is that humanity is one single race and that the day has come for humanity’s unification into one global society. While reaffirming the core ethical principles common to all religions, Bahá'u'lláh also revealed new laws and teachings to lay the foundations of a global civilization. “A new life,” Bahá'u'lláh declares, “is, in this age, stirring within all the peoples of the earth.”
The worldwide Bahá'í community, composed of people from virtually every racial, ethnic and religious background, is working to give practical expression to Bahá'u'lláh’s vision of world unity. We invite you to learn more about the Bahá'í Faith and benefit from the spirtual and practical insights found in the Revelation of Bahá'u'lláh, God's message for humanity in this day.
