About the Author

‘Abdu’l-Bahá (1844–1921), born Abbás Effendi, was the eldest son and appointed successor of Bahá’u’lláh, founder of the Bahá’í Faith. As the leader of the global Bahá’í community following his father’s death in 1892, ‘Abdu’l-Bahá worked tirelessly to spread his father’s message of unity, peace, and spiritual renewal across Europe and North America. His teachings emphasized the harmony of science and religion, the equality of men and women, the elimination of prejudice, and the oneness of all faiths. In Abdul Baha on Divine Philosophy, a collection of speeches and essays, he addresses these themes with remarkable clarity and warmth. Despite enduring decades of imprisonment by Ottoman authorities, he remained a model of compassion and service, eventually earning international admiration—including recognition from the League of Nations and intellectuals like Leo Tolstoy. He played a critical role in shaping the Bahá’í Faith as a modern global religion grounded in universalist ethics and spiritual inclusivity.
