Identified by Shoghi Effendi as Abdu'l-Baha's "outstanding contribution to the future reorganization of the world." Presents a defense of Western-style modernization in the face of opposition to the Shah's reforms. Explores the qualities of the spiritually learned through the lens of an Islamic tradition that the learned "must guard himself, defend his faith, oppose his passions and obey the commandments of his Lord". Presents the essential outlines of the Lesser Peace. Argues that religion is the greatest instrument for achieving true civilization, but warns that it can be diverted to the wrong ends. Rejects the possibility of a secular morality based on an "innate sense of human dignity", since "self-love is kneaded into the very clay of man". Issues a call for education reform, borrowing from other cultures as necessary, to restore the ancient glory of Persia. | Bribery and corruption; Call to action; Christ; Christianity; Detachment; severance; renunciation; patience; Education of children; moral education; Excellence; distinction; Heedlessness and ignorance of the people; Historical episodes and the lessons of the past; Justice and wrath of God; Justice ['adl]; social justice and divine justice; Mind as principle emanation; activity of the human spirit; Muhammad; Islam; Parliaments; constitutional government; Past, present and future of Iran; Power of the mind over nature; Praise of Eastern values; culture; Progress and the continual ascent of material civilization; Promotion of commerce and industry; Purity of heart; sincerity of intention; sanctity; Rejection, opposition and persecution; Religion as basis of morality; of divine civilization; Religion as source; stimulus of knowledge and science; Self-improvement; self-perfection; discipline; Serving humanity; working for progress, betterment of the world; Spiritual assemblies; administrative matters; Status of kings; future of monarchy; Symbolism; Symbolism of color and light; Universal education; Universal peace; world unity; Walking the spiritual path; spiritual wayfaring; the virtuous life; War and peace | * | * | MMAH.234 | ||

Comprising nine vahids (unities) of nineteen chapters or babs (gates)—with the exception of the last unity, which has only ten gates—the greater part of the work was written in the prison of Mákú, but, contrary to some prevalent assumptions, the last parts may have been written in Chihriq, after the Báb was interrogated by the clerics in Tabriz. The Persian Bayán abrogates Islamic laws and traditions and sets down new laws and teachings. However, the various laws are discussed as symbols referring to deep spiritual meanings and vehicles to prepare the people for the advent of Him Whom God shall make manifest. Both the form and content of the book affirm the underlying metaphysics of unity in which all things are manifestations of an inner reality which is the revelation of God within them. | Attaining good pleasure of God; Chastisement and requital; Divine unity [tawhid] and degrees of unity; God's knowledge; He Whom God Shall Make Manifest; the Bab and Baha'u'llah; Identity; relationship of Manifestation of God to God; Inmost heart [fu'ad]; Islamic rituals; holy days; practices; etc.; Knowledge; recognition of God; Lack of formal education of the Manifestation of God; Letters of the Living; Manifestation of God as mirror; Manifestation of God as sun; Manifestation of God speaking in the voice of Divinity; Modes; manner; speed; size of divine revelation; Names and attributes of God; Oneness or innumerability of the Manifestations of God; Predictions and prophecies; Primal Will and the Word; Remembrance; Manifestation of God; Progressive revelation; renewal of religion; Proofs of the Manifestations of God; Purpose; goal of creation; Qur'an and Hadith quotation and interpretation; Rejection, opposition and persecution; Return of the Manifestations of God; Station of the Manifestation of God; Twofold; threefold station of the Manifestation of God; Suffering and imprisonment; Superiority; incomparability of the Word of God; The Bab; the Primal Point; station and claims of the Bab; The Bayan, its laws and their abrogation; The divine emanation; the all-pervading bounty of God; The Holy Spirit; Being a channel for the Holy Spirit in teaching the Cause; The Imamate; the Caliphate; The Twelfth Imam; the Qa'im; The Word of God; influence and centrality of; Transcendence; unknowability of God; Twofold; threefold station of the Manifestation of God; Unity of existence [wahdatu'l-wujud]; Word of God is its own standard; Word of God the cause of creation | * | - | NSS.045-049, BRHL.59, MSBR.204-205, AHDA.442.1, MMAH.007, SRC.083-084, SRC.181-184, SRC.280, GOH.035, GOH.281-298, GOH.308-338, GPB.025x | see also BB00020, Arabic Bayan |
