Produktbeschreibung
Varqá and Rú¿u'lláh: 101 Stories of Bravery on the Move is the extraordinary story of a father and a son that arose in the 19th century to spread the Faith of Bahá'u'lláh throughout Iran with indomitable strength and resilience. Varqá the father, a physician and a talented poet, and his gifted adolescent son Rú¿u'lláh, both of penetrating spiritual insight, took the New Gospel with zeal and courage to a generation blind in the most dire fanaticism. Operating in the midst of a country sunk into corruption and bigotry, Varqá and Rú¿u'lláh were able to teach both the rich and the poor, the prince and the commoner, the scholar and the illiterate, the believer and the laic, in freedom or in prison. Their saga ended with their tragic martyrdom in the royal prison of Tehran in 1896 but has continued to live like a legend inspiring Bahá'ís around the world to serve. ¿Varqá's legacy of service and consecration was continued by Valíyu'lláh Varqá and Dr 'Alí-Müammad Varqá, his son and grandson, respectively, all three of whom were designated as Hands of the Cause of God.
