One God
The Creator is beyond full human understanding, yet we can know God through prayer and the lives and teachings of the divine messengers.

Let’s connectWhat Bahá’ís believe
Bahá’ís believe there is one God, and that the world’s great religions share a divine source. Their founders—including Moses, Buddha, Jesus, Muhammad and Bahá’u’lláh—have guided humanity at different times in its development.
Bahá’u’lláh, the founder of the Bahá’í Faith, taught that humanity is one family. His teachings call for a world united in its diversity, where every person can contribute to the wellbeing of all.

The world’s religions share a spiritual foundation. Their teachings offer guidance suited to the needs of humanity in different times and places.
All people belong to one human family. Equality, justice and the elimination of prejudice are essential to its unity and progress.
These beliefs go hand in hand with equality between women and men, the independent search for truth, and harmony between science and religion.
Belief in action
Bahá’í life brings together prayer, learning and service. There is no clergy; everyone is encouraged to take part and contribute.
Prayer and reflection nurture our inner lives and help us bring spiritual qualities into everyday choices.
Through study, thoughtful conversation and consultation, people learn from one another and decide how to move forward together.
Bahá’ís work alongside others to strengthen community life and contribute to the wellbeing of their neighbourhoods.
