Pictures of Abdu’l-Baha

I wish I knew Abdu’l-Baha better.

Since He lived before I did, the only way I can attempt to know the man, the person, the Center of the Covenant, the Master, the Servant of God (that’s what Abdu’l-Baha means in Arabic) is through the writings He left behind… and maybe through His pictures.

Thanks to the internet, we can all look at these rare pictures of Abdu’l-Baha… so that perhaps they whisper some insight about Him.

You can navigate using the little icons at the bottom (just move your mouse over the bottom of the black rectangle. Or you can let the slideshow flip to the next picture (customize the speed at the top left hand side).

Enjoy.

    it is not the fact of the name, Baha u llah, perhaps you have read in the bible prophecies that He would go from mountain to mountain, and from river to sea, and the most important from fortified city to fortress…. Baha u llah could not plan His imprisionment that took Him through this journey written in the bible…I thimk you shoud read the book chief in the night, so you would see the truth in different way

    On the contrary, Bahá’u'lláh was largely able to choose where he was exiled to. Also, the Bible is full of such scriptures that can be retrospectively labelled “prophecies” as one finds convenient. The fact that no one considered them prophesies until they were seen as matching the life of Bahá’u'lláh is more problematic, however. Thief in the Night is a book for children and entertainment, not a serious history book.

    I think you meant to say Thief in the Night. But Chief in the Night is kind of catchy too!

    Abdul Baha, perhaps one of the greatest name in mankind’s history and the Hisotry of Religions. Serenity and grandeur of the soul, mind and boldy is what He radiated and will always continue to radiate. To comprehend the inner-beauty of his teachings, one has to study them with total and absolute calm and willingness to learn.
