To become a member of the Bahá'í Faith is quite simple You accept that Bahá'u'lláh was the latest manifestation of God, that the Bab was His Forerunner and Herald and that 'Abdu'l-Baha was His son Interpreter of His teachings. You are aware that there is an administration to obey and you endeavour to obey the teachings and laws of the Bahá'í Faith.

One of the first steps can be to meet members of your local community. They will be able to explain the laws of the Faith and teach you about Bahá'u'lláh.

The laws of the Faith are more a way of life. Here are a few examples. We abstain from alcohol, we treat all people as equal regardless of race, religious background or colour, we believe that there is only one God. We work for the unity of religions.

It is not difficult to learn about Bahá'u'lláh as he lived in the nineteenth century and his life is well documented. You will find many books to help you learn all about this religion from its origin to the present day.
