The Declaration of the Báb, occurring on May 23, 1844, in Shiraz, Persia, marks the moment Siyyid ‘Alí-Muhammad announced He was a Messenger of God and the Herald of a new era, specifically to prepare the way for Bahá'u'lláh. This event launched the Bábí Faith and is celebrated as one of nine holy days in the Bahá'í calendar.
Baha’u’llah, the Prophet-Founder of the Baha’i Faith, passed away on 29 May, 1892. This holy day is commemorated by Baha’is all over the world and is known as ‘The Ascension of Baha’u’llah’. The final resting place of Baha’u’llah, the Shrine of Baha’u’llah, is located in Bahji (in present day Israel), and is the Point of Adoration to which Baha’is turn when reciting their Obligatory Prayer.
Naw-Ruz is a celebration of a “spiritual springtime” that symbolizes both individual renewal and mankind's revitalization. Naw-Ruz, which means “New Day”, is celebrated at the vernal equinox, on the first day of spring. It is a time of joy and celebration, with the darkness of winter coming to an end and the reappearance of light, warmth and the beauty of spring’s flowers. It is a day of new beginnings – of change and hope.
