'Traveller’s Narrative Written to Illustrate the Episode of the Báb' Summary

This narrative, written by ‘Abdu’l-Bahá, the son of Baháʼu’lláh, provides a first-hand account of the life and teachings of the Báb. It begins with the Báb’s declaration of his mission as a herald of God, a message that was met with both fervent acceptance and violent opposition from the authorities. The book details the persecution faced by the Báb and his followers, ultimately leading to his execution in 1850. Despite the hardships, the Báb’s message of unity and love resonated with many, paving the way for the emergence of Baháʼu’lláh, who is considered by Baháʼís to be the fulfillment of the Báb’s prophecy. The narrative also recounts the exile of Baháʼu’lláh and his teachings, including his emphasis on the oneness of humanity and the essential unity of all religions. The book serves as a valuable historical document and a personal testament to the power and enduring nature of the Baháʼí Faith.
