Re: When was the Bahai Faith Founded?



The Baha'i Holy Day of Ridvan celebrates Baha'u'llah's Declaration of
His station as a Manifestation of God on April 21st, 1863. Some
scholars speculate that it actually started later, such as 1866 when
Baha'u'llah issued the Surih-i-Amr, openly and publicly breaking with
Mirza Yahya. However all Baha'is agree on the 1863 date.

Best Regards,

Matt
