Bahai History
The history of the Bahai faith goes back to
1844, when a young Iranian man who called himself the Báb said that God
will soon send a messenger who is to be the latest prophet, or
Manifestation of God, from the line of Moses, Muhammad and Jesus. The
prophet Bahá'u'lláh (meaning Glory of God in Arabic) arrived and Bahai
faith was founded in 1863. Bahá'u'lláh was born into a rich family in
1817 as Mirza Husayn Ali. His followers were descendants of the Bábis,
the people who believed in the Báb's message. Bahá'u'lláh announced that
he was not the last of God's prophets and that God would send prophets
throughout history. This way, God would reveal more and more about
himself to mankind.
