Thank you for asking my friend!  I was just getting ready to post. :giantgrin:

 

The Declaration of the Bab May 22-23rd:


On the evening of May 22 to the sunset of the 23rd is the Anniversary of the Declaration of the Bab which occurred in 1844 which is also the beginning of the Baha'i calendar. Baha'is around the world will be observing this day as a Holy Day and will be taking the day off from work and school.

Abdul-Baha also happened to be born on this day in 1844 and rather than anyone observing His birthday on this special day He asked the believers to observe a date in November as the Day of the Covenant so as not to conflict with the observance of the Declaration of the Bab.

Here is what Abdul-Baha said:

This is 23 May, the anniversary of the message and Declaration of the Báb. It is a blessed day and the dawn of manifestation, for the appearance of the Báb was the early light of the true morn, whereas the manifestation of the Blessed Beauty, Bahá'u'lláh, was the shining forth of the sun. Therefore, it is a blessed day, the inception of the heavenly bounty, the beginning of the divine effulgence. On this day in 1844 the Báb was sent forth heralding and proclaiming the Kingdom of God, announcing the glad tidings of the coming of Bahá'u'lláh and withstanding the opposition of the whole Persian nation. Some of the Persians followed Him. For this they suffered the most grievous difficulties and severe ordeals. They withstood the tests with wonderful power and sublime heroism. Thousands were cast into prison, punished, persecuted and martyred. Their homes were pillaged and destroyed, their possessions confiscated. They sacrificed their lives most willingly and remained unshaken in their faith to the very end. Those wonderful souls are the lamps of God, the stars of sanctity shining gloriously from the eternal horizon of the will of God.

The Promulgation of Universal Peace, p. 138

Wallahi!

Allah humma salli 'ala el-Bab wa'ala ali Baha'u'llah!

"The real meeting consists in the communication of heart. . . . hearts which are spiritually related to each other, their meetings are eternal, both int this world and in the Universe of God. I hope that thou mayest attain thereunto."
Abdul'Baha - TAB Vol.3; 589-90

Wa salaam!

Dear friends,

I am the Primal Point from which have been generated
all created things . . . I am the Countenance of God Whose
splendor can never be obscured, the Light of God Whose
radiance can never fade . . . I am one of the sustaining
pillars of the Primal Word of God. Whosoever hath recognized
Me, hath known all that is true and right, and
hath attained all that is good and seemly.
 -- The Bab
