Baha'u'llah's Persian writings are Indo-Iranian (Iranian branch), alongside Arabic; the family already carries an edge to Zoroastrianism, the other major Persian-rooted tradition.

The Bab and Baha'u'llah were both Persian; Persian is one of the faith's two scriptural languages.

Most Babis became Baha'i after Baha'u'llah's 1863 declaration in Baghdad; the Bab is venerated in Baha'i teaching as Baha'u'llah's herald.

The Bahai writings treat angels as a symbol for perfected human souls and for divine confirmations rather than as a separate order of beings, so the ranked hierarchies of the Western tradition have no place in Bahai belief.

Set out in Baha'i law.

Mandated in the Kitab-i-Aqdas as the Mashriqu'l-Adhkar.

Derived: this work depicts a figure already recorded as belonging to this tradition; the work-to-tradition link is inferred from that live depicts edge and the figures own attested tradition affiliation, not independently sourced beyond it.

Written by two practicing Baha'is whose stated purpose, repeated across decades of interviews, was to carry Baha'i teaching into their songwriting; this song's own lyrics quote Baha'i scripture directly.

The Right of God, instituted in the Kitab-i-Aqdas.

Mulla Husayn was the first of the Letters of the Living and a founding figure of the Babi movement from which the Baha'i Faith emerged.

New Era High School was founded by the National Spiritual Assembly of the Baha'is of India, Burma and Ceylon and remains under Baha'i institutional governance today, so linked to the Baha'i Faith at the religion level.

The Nineteen Day Feast, instituted by the Bab and confirmed in Baha'u'llah's Kitab-i-Aqdas, belongs to the Baha'i Faith, its own Origin field.

The Bahai Faith carries a marked numerical symbolism inherited from its Babi origins: the value nineteen governs the calendar of nineteen months of nineteen days, and the Bab's own title is derived by abjad reckoning.

Guardian of the Baha'i Faith, 1921 to 1957.

One of the eighteen Letters of the Living; foundational Babi and Baha'i figure.

The film's own official synopsis names the Baha'i Faith outright as its subject, making this the first screen work the atlas holds for the tradition.

Prescribed in the Kitab-i-Aqdas as one of the faith's central obligations.

The Universal House of Justice is the supreme institution of the Baha'i administrative order.

Haifa holds the administrative and spiritual center of the Bahai Faith.

The World Centre is the spiritual and administrative heart of the Baha'i Faith.

Baha'i teaching places the first revelation to Baha'u'llah in this dungeon.

Adds a specific, dated succession between the Baha'i Faith reaching the United States in 1894 and the Mother Temple of Africa opening in Uganda in 1951, both already recorded here: the November 1921 death of 'Abdu'l-Baha at Haifa and the reading of his Will and Testament naming his grandson Shoghi Effendi Guardian of the Cause of God, the office that led the Faith through its thirty six year formative age.

The true origin point of the Baha'i Faith's own map, nineteen years earlier than the 1863 Baghdad proclamation already recorded there and the only event on record before it.

The most recent event on the Baha'i Faith's own map by thirty seven years, marking the completion of its worldwide continental temple programme.

Adds a specific, dated milestone in Baha'i history between Shoghi Effendi's 1921 appointment as Guardian and the Mother Temple of Africa's 1951 opening in Uganda, both already recorded here: the Faith's 23 May 1944 centenary, marked worldwide with the publication of Shoghi Effendi's God Passes By.

Closes a gap of almost two years since 2024's citation of the dedication of Papua New Guinea's national Baha'i House of Worship, moving the map from a completed national temple to the design stage of Cameroon's first local temple, one of three the Universal House of Justice called for the same year.

Closes a 10 year gap since 2016's The Baha'i House Of Worship Opens In Santiago, the most recent event already on the Baha'i Faith's map, with the faith's first national House of Worship, dedicated in Kinshasa.

Closes a one year gap since 2023's citation of the first national Baha'i House of Worship opening in Kinshasa, moving the map from the faith's first national temple in Africa to its counterpart for Papua New Guinea, the second building built for the population of an entire country.

Adds a specific, dated milestone in Baha'i history between the Iranian Revolution triggering systematic persecution of Baha'is in 1979 and UNESCO inscribing the Baha'i Holy Places in Haifa and the Western Galilee in 2008, both already recorded here: the completion and opening of the Terraces on Mount Carmel on 22 May 2001, which laid the groundwork for the later World Heritage inscription.

Adds a milestone in Baha'i history between the Mother Temple of Africa opening in Uganda in 1951 and the Iranian Revolution triggering systematic persecution of Baha'is in 1979, both already recorded here: the Universal House of Justice's first election on 21 April 1963 in Haifa, completing the succession plan Baha'u'llah's writings had set out following Shoghi Effendi's 1957 death.

Adds a milestone in Baha'i history between the Baha'i Faith reaching the United States in 1894 and Shoghi Effendi becoming Guardian of the Baha'i Faith in 1921, both already recorded here: the Young Turk Revolution of July 1908, which freed Abdu'l-Baha after more than four decades of Ottoman confinement in Akka and let him undertake the Western journeys that carried the faith directly to Europe and North America.

Adds a specific, dated milestone in the Baha'i Faith's institutional recognition between the Iranian Revolution triggering systematic persecution of Baha'is in 1979 and the Baha'i House of Worship opening in Santiago in 2016, both already recorded here: UNESCO's 8 July 2008 inscription of the Baha'i Holy Places in Haifa and the Western Galilee as the first World Heritage sites of a religion born in the modern era.

The nine-pointed star is the most common symbol of the Bahai Faith.

Entity-backed identity for the theology value this entry already carries, resolved to the live entity it names, phase 3 bucket conversion (docs\design_entity_backed_browse_buckets_20260928.md, w-bucketconv-divmore-0929). The original fact with its own citation stays on the entry unchanged.

Baha'i doctrine continues the Abrahamic prophetic line and worships the same God under it.
