Súratu'lláh

From Bahaipedia
Jump to:navigation, search

Súratu'lláh, provisionally translated as the Surah of God, is a Tablet revealed by Bahá’u’lláh. It has not yet been officially translated, but a provisional translation exists.

Adib Taherzadeh writes that the Tablet addresses the Bábí community rebuking those who have shown malice to Bahá’u’lláh, referring to His station and advising the reader to recognize it.[1] The Tablet compares Bahá’u’lláh with Moses, Jesus, Muhammad and the Bab, expressing that whoever does not believe in Him has also denied the previous Manifestations.

Ishraq-Khavari placed the date of the revelation of this Tablet during the spring of 1863 in Baghdad, and Taherzadeh also suggests that it was revealed near the close of the Baghdad period around the same time as the Kitáb-i-Íqán,[2] however it has also been suggested that it may have been revealed in Adrianople.

Provisional Translation[edit]

  • Provisional translation by Juan Cole.
