About this listen

 In this compelling work, Edward Granville Browne, a renowned Cambridge Orientalist, presents the poignant history of a persecuted sect through the voice of one of its own. After decades of silence, the followers of the Báb, known as Bábís, finally share their profound narrative, detailing the life of Siyyid ‘Alí-Muhammad-i-Shírází (the Báb), who proclaimed himself as the Gate and the Promised One of Islám. He heralded the arrival of an even greater Manifestation of God, Bahá’u’lláh, the founder of the Bahá’í Faith. This narrative, crafted by ‘Abdu’l-Bahá, the son of Bahá’u’lláh, not only recounts the trials faced by the Bábís but also explores Bahá’u’lláh’s exile and teachings. Browne’s vivid portrait of ‘Abdu’l-Bahá and his respectful interpretation of this rich history offers listeners an insightful glimpse into the evolution of one of the world’s most significant religions today.
