The Bahá'í Faith (sometimes referred to as Baha'ism or Baha'ism) is a monotheistic religion whose faithful follow the teachings of Bahá'u'lláh (1817-1892), its prophet and founder. Bahá'u'lláh taught that there is only one God who is progressively revealing his will to humanity. According to the Bahá'í point of view, each of the great religions introduced by the Messengers of God - such as Moses, Krishna, Buddha, Zoroaster, Jesus Christ, Muhammad and The Báb - constitute successive stages in the spiritual development of civilization. The Bahá'ís believe that Bahá'u'lláh has been the most recent messenger of this saga and that his teachings are oriented to the new moral and spiritual challenges of our time. As such, the Bahá'í faith is included among the Abrahamic religions.
Recognizing the spiritual nature of humanity and the importance that prayer, meditation and reflection fulfill for it, Bahá'í temples, also known as houses of worship, have been established in different parts of the world, offered as a place open to all People who want to come to pray, meditate or reflect.
The Bahá'í temples are symbolic buildings where visitors can simply pray and meditate in a serene environment, and at certain times listen to the sacred scriptures of the world's religions being recited and sung. An integral concept of each temple is that, in due time, they will provide a spiritual center around which agencies and institutions of social, humanitarian and educational service will be established for the surrounding population.
