A monotheistic religion founded by the prophet Baha'u'llah during the 19th century in Persia which emphasizes the spiritual unity of mankind. Baha'u'llah means "The Glory of God," in Arabic. A follower of this religion is known as a Baha'i. Baha'i means "Follower of Glory" or "Follower of the Light." Baha'is have been persecuted in Iran because it is not an official religion in that country. Which is why their headquarters is in Israel. The official religions of Iran are Judaism, Christianity, Islam, and Zoroastrianism. Iranian president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad once stated that "When we speak of religion, we refer to 'divine' religion. In our country, we follow that law. A law that is based on the majority vote of the people."
While the Baha'i Faith promotes the unity of mankind, it condemns homosexuality. This "may" not be the case for all Baha'is however. Just like how some Christians do not oppose homosexuality. Along with believing in one God, Baha'is believe that all prejudice is destructive and must be overcome and they believe that science and religion are one. They also believe that all major religions come from God and both men and women are viewed as equals. Their holy books are primarily the Kitab-i-Aqdas and the Kitab-i-Iqan.

Get the The Wipe of Faith mug.She is the sweetest girl you will ever meet. She reminds you of what God brings in your life, and have hope for what will be in the future. If you are dating her, you are in love because it is God given. People are only jealous of who she is due to how much grace and beauty she holds. She is a delicate rose, one that even an angel would love to show themselves in order to pick up this gorgeous flower. She brings joy from heaven and love from God. She let’s you know she won’t let you go. And she knows her man loves her. Truly a blessing. Don’t betray her, she won’t betray you. She is loyal and deserves only the best. If you are fake with her, she is real to you. She has God’s discernment, and her man will protect her;).
