Bahaullah

Born Mírzá Husayn-'Alí in Tehran, Persia, he was also known as Bahá'u'lláh ("The Glory of God" in Arabic), as "He Whom God will make manifest" (from the Báb's writings), and as "Father of the Poor". Bahá'u'lláh's notable works include the Kitáb-i-Aqdas (Most Holy Book), Kitáb-i-Íqan (http://bahai-library.org/writings/bahaullah/iqan/) (Book of Certitude), Epistle to the Son of the Wolf[?], and others. Many excerpts have been published in English in various compilations such as Gleanings from the Writings of Bahá'u'lláh (http://bahai-library.org/writings/bahaullah/gwb/).

He died in Bahjí, Palestine (outside 'Akká, Acre).
