FACTS FOR BEHAISTS (1901)
by Ibrahim George Kheiralla
This book is a compilation of letters to and from Mrs. Templeton, an American who was residing in Haifa (Currently Israel) for a long time. Personally she had known Baha’u’llah and all His family members. Her friends thought that as she is not a believer in Baha’i Faith and therefore not partial, her testimony would be valuable. For this reason many believers from Chicago and New York wrote her letters of inquiry, all of which she answered.

BEHA‘U’LLAH (THE GLORY OF GOD) – Volume – I
by Ibrahim George Kheiralla
Each Prophet of God brought to humanity a cup of the wine of Truth. The followers of the prophets however, did not consider the wine in the cup, but devoted their attention to the quality and color of the cup itself; that is to say, they respected the individuality of their particular Prophet, rather than the Truth be ‘brought them. For this reason, although God’s messages to humanity have always been one and the same in their teaching, yet religious beliefs of mankind have differed on account of the color of the cup which held them.
In this book Ibrahim George Kheiralla explains the teachings of Baha’u’llah and the Baha’i Faith from Biblical as well as scientific point of view. The aim of this book is that all nations should become one in faith, the bonds of affection and unity between one and all should strengthen, diversity of religion should cease and differences in race be annulled.

BAHA‘U’LLAH TABLET TO MIRZA MUHAMMAD ALI
by Mirza Husayn-Ali Nuri (Baha’u’llah)
Baha’u’llah is a divine manifestation of God. And there is no doubt in His divinity and His infallibility. Baha’u’llah knew everything about the future as much as he knew about the past i.e. nothing was hidden from His Divine and Blessed eyes. Baha’u’llah very well knew who would stay on His covenant and who would break His covenant. This tablet is written by Baha’u’llah to the Mightiest Branch (Ghusn-i-Akbar) Mirza Muhammad Ali. Tears roll out from eyes when we read the words of our Master Baha’u’llah to his true successor. Read and be blessed by the words of our Master Baha’u’llah.
A LOST HISTORY OF THE BAHA’I FAITH
by Shua’u’llah Baha’i, Eric Stetson
This book tells the story of the Baha’i faith through the writings of some of the children’s and grandchildren’s of its founder, and others who knew Baha’u’llah personally. They called themselves “Unitarian Baha’is” and stood for a broad-minded faith based on reason and individual freedom of conscience. Because of their liberal views and skepticism of absolute religious authority, they were excommunicated and shunned by the Baha’is as the Baha’i faith developed into an organized religion. In fact, all the three descendants of Baha’u’llah – totaling dozens of family members – were excommunicated by their own relatives after its founder’s death.

PROTEST OF KAMAR BAHA’I AGAINST INJUSTICE
by Kamar Baha’i (Grand Daughter of Baha’u’llah)
Mrs. Kamar Baha’i (great granddaughter of Baha’u’llah) focuses all of her opposition towards the person and policies of Shoghi Effendi Rabbani. She makes some questionable statements such as that the will of Abdu’l-Baha is “counterfeit” and that “Mohammed Ali’s friends were the true believers in Abbas Effendi”—part of a consistent pattern in her writings of attempting to protect the public image of both of her uncles rather than acknowledging the deep distrust that existed between them during their lifetimes. Mrs. Baha’i explains the reasons for the lawsuit she filed against Mr. Rabbani, and speculates that he settled it out of court because of fear that a trial could have opened up larger and more difficult to resolve issues concerning his legitimacy as the world Baha’i leader.

The Baha’i Knight of the British Empire
by David D’mello
The Year 2020 marks the Centenary of the Knighthood of Sir Abbas Effendi, A.K.A. Abdu’l Baha. April 27, 1920 is the day when he was awarded with the Knighthood by the British Empire for his uncompromising services to the British soldiers during World War I. Details inside this book! Happy reading!
Now the question arises is why the Baha’is are not celebrating 100 years of the Knighthood of Sir Abbas Effendi!? ?
