The Baha'i Faith is a monotheistic religion founded in the 19th century by Baha'u'llah in Persia, now Iran. It emphasizes the unity of all people and religions, teaching that humanity is one family. Baha'is believe in the progressive revelation of God through various prophets, including Jesus, Muhammad, and Buddha. Central to Baha'i teachings is the concept of universal peace and justice. Followers advocate for equality, particularly gender equality, and the elimination of prejudice. The Baha'i community is known for its commitment to social and economic development, as well as its efforts to promote interfaith dialogue and understanding.
