Review This Product
Siyyid Mustafá Rúmí’s nearly century-long life was one filled with tireless travel and selfless service to the Cause of God. The extent of his role in the establishment of the Bahá’í communities in the Indian subcontinent—particularly in Burma (present-day Myanmar)—cannot be overstated. The memoirs offer the reader a fascinating firsthand account of the early days of the Bahá’í Faith in the region, along with details of several pilgrimages to the Holy Land and time spent in the presence of ‘Abdu’l-Bahá. Included in these passages are Tablets of Bahá’u’lláh and ‘Abdu’l-Bahá addressed to Siyyid Mustafá Rúmí, as well as letters of the Guardian, who would posthumously appoint him as a Hand of the Cause of God and describe him as an Apostle of Bahá’u’lláh, a pioneer, and a martyr.

Review This Product The biography of a family who embraced the Bahá’í Faith in its earliest days in the United States and worked tirelessly to establish the Bahá’í community in Washington D.C. They also had the privilege of visiting and corresponding with ‘Abdu’l-Bahá, and served Him throughout His visit to North America. Author Judy Hannen Moe, the great-granddaughter of Joseph and Pauline Hannen, has combed through several archival collections in order to piece together the story of these inspiring souls. The resulting book is a treasure trove of highlights from the early days of the Faith in America, and an intimate glimpse of the lives of a handful of brilliant and devoted servants of the Cause.

Review This Product An inspiring biography on the life of John Bosch and his wife Louise. Perhaps best known for their efforts and selfless generosity in helping to establish a Bahá’í school in northern California, they were also among a small group of pilgrims present at the time of the Master’s passing and their experience of the event and the special tasks they performed are shared in detail.

Review This Product
Mírzá ‘Alí-Akbar-i-Nakhjavání (1865-1920) is a moving biography of an early believer who had a personal relationship with ‘Abdu’l-Bahá. Mírzá ‘Alí-Akbar translated many Bahá’í Tablets into Russian and, at ‘Abdu’l-Bahá’s request, corresponded with some of the leading literary figures of the time—including Leo Tolstoy and Isabella Grinevskaya. Mírzá ‘Alí-Akbar-i-Nakhjavání also had the great honor of traveling with ‘Abdu’l-Bahá as part of His entourage on His journey through North America in 1912. ‘Abdu’l-Bahá’s fondness for this young gentleman of the Caucasus is evident not only in the details of their interactions but in the many Tablets that the Master addressed to him.

Review This Product
For almost two centuries, followers of the Bahá’í Faith, Iran’s largest religious minority, have been persecuted by the state. They have been made scapegoats for the nation's ills, branded enemies of Islam and denounced as foreign agents. Since the Islamic Revolution of 1979 Bahá’ís have been barred from entering the nation's universities, more than two hundred have been executed, and hundreds more imprisoned and tortured.
Now, however, Iran is at a turning point. A new generation has begun to question how the Bahá’ís have been portrayed by the government and the clergy, and called for them to be given equal rights as fellow citizens. In documenting, for the first time, the plight of this religious community in Iran since its inception, Fereydun Vahman also reveals the greater plight of a nation aspiring to develop a modern identity built on respect for diversity rather than hatred and self-deception.

Review This Product
The life of Louise Gregory has been overshadowed by that of her brilliant husband, Hand of the Cause Louis Gregory. This book restores the balance, showing that during her long life Louise achieved much in her own right.
This is a moving biography sharing Louise's childhood and education in England and Europe, her travels to Egypt in 1911 to meet 'Abdu'l-Baha, her travels to America in 1912 and the diffilculties and love of an inter-racial marriage at that time, and her extensive travel teaching in Europe to countries such as Luxembourg, Germany, Hungary, Romania, and Bulgaria.

Review This Product In June of 1920, two gentlemen arrived in the Netherlands to hand deliver a communication from ‘Abdu’l-Bahá, then head of the Bahá’í Faith, to the Executive Committee of the Central Organization for a Durable Peace at The Hague. This book examines the contents of these two Tablets, the historical circumstances that shaped nineteenth-century peace movements, and the catastrophic impact of the First World War. During this time, ‘Abdu’l-Bahá was actively engaged in promoting a clear understanding of the Bahá’í perspective on peace. His example has continuing relevance for the state of the world and the discourse on peace in the twenty-first century.

Review This Product This book was the first comprehensive biography of this magnetic figure and perfect Exemplar of Baha'i life, and remains the foremost source for subsequent accounts. Abdu'l-Baha was one of the most outstanding, active and exemplary people in human spiritual history. Through many stories and vignettes, as well as a history of his life, this book presents perhaps the most comprehensive biography of Abdu'l-Baha available.
