World Languages: ‘Abdu’l-Bahá: The Son of Persia (Persian) aims to illustrate the living relationship between the history of the Baha’i Faith and the enduring historical narrative of Iran. It underscores the significant influence of this religion on Iran’s intellectual landscape, spanning the last 180 years, with a particular focus on its pivotal role during the Constitutional Revolution of 1905. The book also looks at how the Baha’i Faith has endured hostility from its very inception, in its birthplace, Iran, and its modernizing influence has been expunged from historical accounts.

“O Lord, my Lord! I praise Thee and thank Thee for the favour Thou hast bestowed upon this feeble handmaiden of Thine, Thy maidservant who is supplicating and praying fervently to Thee, inasmuch as Thou hast guided her unto Thy Straight Path, led her to Thy luminous Kingdom, inclined her ears to Thy most sublime Call in the midmost heart of the world, and unveiled to her eyes Thy signs which testify to the revelation of Thy supreme dominion over all things.

O my Lord! I dedicate that which is in my womb to Thee. Grant that this child may be praised in Thy Kingdom, may be blessed by Thy grace and bounty, and may grow and develop within the stronghold of Thine education. Verily, Thou art the Most Generous, the Lord of grace abounding.”
—‘Abdu’l‑Baha

Peek inside Robert Sengstacke Abbott: A Man, a Paper, and a Parade by Susan Engle, illustrated by Luthando Mazibuko.

Description of the book: For middle-grade readers - Robert Sengstacke Abbott (1870-1940) was an influential African American who was born in Georgia, eventually migrated north, and settled in Chicago. He studied law and founded the newspaper The Chicago Defender in 1905, one of the first newspapers written for the African American community. Through the newspaper Abbott strongly encouraged African Americans living in the South to move north, which he saw as a way to escape unjust Jim Crow laws for greater job and educational opportunities in northern states. Abbott was also instrumental in organizing the Bud Billiken Parade, a long-standing tradition in Chicago that has been held since 1929, supporting African-American culture, art, and music. Abbott became involved in the Bahá’í community late in his life, attracted to the teachings on religious and racial unity.

“The Three Kinds of Prophets

Question: How many kinds of divine Prophets are there?

Answer: There are three kinds of divine Prophets. One kind are the universal Manifestations, which are even as the sun. Through Their advent the world of existence is renewed, a new cycle is inaugurated, a new religion is revealed, souls are quickened to a new life, and East and West are flooded with light. These Souls are the universal Manifestations of God and have been sent forth to the entire world and the generality of mankind.
Another kind of Prophets are followers and promulgators, not leaders and law-givers, but they are nonetheless the recipients of the hidden inspirations of God. Yet another kind are Prophets Whose prophethood has been limited to a particular locality. But the universal Manifestations are all-encompassing: They are like the root, and all others are as the branches; they are like the sun, and all others are as the moon and the stars.”

Review of Visions of the Sacred: Conversations with Baha’i Artists by Karen Macqueen

“An Astonishing Exploration
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
With her deep love of and respect for art and artists and her knowledge of how the arts contribute to culture and to the Faith, Kim MacQueen has documented her interviews with a stunning array of contemporary artists who are Bahá’ís and combined this with thoughtful commentary. It is a MUST for anyone interested in the subject of the arts and the Faith and heralds the day when the Faith will “spread like wildfire” when it is exemplified through the arts. It reminds us of how we need to encourage and delight in creativity, to approach the arts with a sacred sensibility, and to preserve and protect the artistic budding and flowering of a nascent Bahá’í civilization. Read it and be inspired!”
