Task3


Research another religion & spiritual belief

For task3 I had to research the Baha'i faith religion
Step1:  I searched for the Baha'i faith religion in various websites,
I contacted one of my Baha'i friends (Hamada) and sent him an email with the questions
I want to ask him. The questions were:

1) Where and when did the Baha'i faith originate?
2) Who are some important people in the Baha'i Faith?
3) Identify who one of the important people named was?
4) What is the name of the religious house that operates as a meeting area for people of the Baha'i Faith?
5) What are some things that are done in the religious house of the Baha'i Faith?
6) Is there any Holy Text's in the Baha'i Faith?
7) Who wrote the Holy texts?
8) Are there any leaders in the Baha'i community? e.g Muslim Cleric, Pastor
9) Approximately how many people follow the Baha'i Faith world wide?
10) What is the Main message in the Baha'i Faith?

Step2:  He did reply and agree to be my interviewee. I met Hamada and I recorded this conversation:




Baha'i Holly Book

The Baha'i house of worship (Sydney,  Australia) 
Baha'i house of worship (Delhi, India)
The Baha'i Temple (Haifa, Israel) -
(This Temple houses the tomb of their leader, the herald of Bahaulla (1817- 1892),
this is the world centre of the Baha'i religion)

  1. Good to hear your interview, Afaf. Your interviewee didn't need much prompting, so in parts it was more like a monologue!I couldn't read your reflection. Please allow me permission (Miguel will show you if you're not sure how)....
