We have produced a new version of “The Bahá’í Faith – What is It” with a shortened title. It now has a full-colour cover and the text has been updated a little in places. This leaflet is written in a straightforward style which makes it suitable for most readers. It is an ideal introduction for those who want a basic idea of what Bahá’ís believe and what they do. See the Leaflets page for the full text. The cost is still 10p per copy.
A new children’s book
Bahíyyih Khánum – the Daughter of Bahá’u’lláh
This is the last in a series of books for young children. It is a companion to the books on “The Báb”, “Bahá’u’lláh”, “‘Abdu’l-Bahá” and “Shoghi Effendi”. This book tells the life of Bahíyyih Khánum, the daughter of Bahá’u’lláh, in simple terms with an illustration or photograph on each page. Bahíyyih Khánum witnessed the ministries of Bahá’u’lláh, ‘Abdu’l-Bahá and the Guardian. An exceptional woman, she led the Faith during the absences of ‘Abdu’l-Bahá and the Guardian from the Holy Land.
Like the other books, this has been written for children aged 5 to 7 years, but can also be used with children who are younger or older than this. It includes some suggested activities which should complement the story, plus a very brief introduction to the Bahá’í Faith which may be helpful for parents or teachers.
The book is A5 in size and costs £1.

We have produced updated versions of two of our more popular leaflets, both now with full-colour covers. The first is “All Religions are One”, which explains the Bahá’í understanding of the connection between religions, the revelation of God’s will through time, and the nature of the Manifestations of God.
The second is “A New World – Building a Better Future”. This is a revised version of our “New World Order” leaflet. It explains the need for a world peace conference, a world government and other world institutions, a common language, economic system, etc, all based on the unity of mankind. It also briefly describes Bahá’í elections and the principle of consultation, ending by offering this as a model for the future.
See the leaflet page for the full text of both leaflets.
Rather unexpectedly, we have produced 3 books at once. Two of these are introductory books, details are below.
The third book, “Words of Peace”, was produced very quickly in response to the war in Ukraine. It contains prayers for peace and unity, plus quotations from the Bahá’í Writings on how peace should be brought about, the contributory factors involved, and also the necessary spiritual aspects.
