Züge der Hagiographie der Bahā’ī

The Bahä'i don't believe in human mediation between God and men and therefore have not developed institutions like priesthood. However, as this religion has Islamic roots, where different types of saintly persons are known, one can look for hidden similar beliefs in the Bahâ'î creed....

520 |a The Bahä'i don't believe in human mediation between God and men and therefore have not developed institutions like priesthood. However, as this religion has Islamic roots, where different types of saintly persons are known, one can look for hidden similar beliefs in the Bahâ'î creed. In fact, the Bahäl have a strong tradition of biography which can be called hagiographie to a wide extent: Some of the earliest texts about the Iraqi-Iranian community are documents with a martyriologic character. As early as 1915, 'Abdu'l-Baha collected biographies of members of the community in Akka which show legendary elements in a Twelver-Shi'ite tradition with a striking light symbolism. Like hagiographies of other religions they served as models for religious orientation. Since the BahäTs rapid adaption to Western culture, biographies follow more and more modern scientific standards of history while especially members of Bahä'ulläh's family are glorified in a Christian terminologie tradition. Those hagiographies find their counterpart in a grave-cult at Mount Carmel in Haifa. One can conclude that the Bahâ'ï are not only orientated towards their God and it's manifestations but also towards humans with an idealized personality who therefore function as mediators between the sphere of the ordinary believer and the transcendent.
