Title: The Kitáb-i-Aqdas
Author: Bahá’u’lláh
Religion: Bahá’í
Book description:
The Kitáb-i-Aqdas or Aqdas is the central book of the Bahá’í Faith written by Bahá’u’lláh, the founder of the religion, 1853-1873. It has the same status as the Quran for Muslims or the Bible for Christians. The work was written in Arabic under the Arabic title, but it is commonly referred to by its Persian title, Kitáb-i-Aqdas, which was given to the work by Bahá’u’lláh himself. It is sometimes also referred to as the Most Holy Book, the Book of Laws or the Book of Aqdas. The word Aqdas has a significance in many languages as the superlative form of a word with its primary letters Q-D-Š. It is usually stated that the book was completed around 1873, although there is evidence to suggest that at least some of the work was written earlier. The Aqdas is referred to as the Mother-Book of the Bahá’í teachings, and the Charter of the future world civilization. It is not, however, only a ‘book of laws’: much of the content deals with other matters, notably ethical exhortations and addresses to various individuals, groups, and places. The Aqdas also discusses the establishment of Bahá’í administrative institutions, Bahá’í religious practices, mysticism, laws of personal status, criminal law, spiritual and ethical exhortations, social principles, miscellaneous laws and abrogations, and prophecies.
