002 - Persian Hidden Words 20-38

Discover Kalimát-i-Maknúnih (The Hidden Words), a profound work authored by Baháulláh, the founder of the Baháí Faith, in Baghdad around 1857. This unique book blends Arabic and Persian, presenting a collection of 71 short passages in Arabic and 82 in Persian. Each passage distills essential spiritual truths into concise utterances. Baháís are encouraged by `Abdul-Bahá, Baháulláhs son, to read these words daily and embody their wisdom in everyday life. He described the Hidden Words as a treasury of divine mysteries, asserting that contemplation of its teachings unlocks profound insights. The Persian section of this audiobook invites listeners to engage with these divine messages, where God speaks to humanity through heartfelt invocations such as O Son of Spirit and O Son of Man. Originally translated by Mr. Anton Haddad in 1903, this version has since been enriched by the authoritative translation of Shoghi Effendi, the Guardian of the Baháí Faith, which remains a cherished resource.
