Baha'is
Unity religion adherents
Baha'is are followers of the Baha'i Faith, a religion founded in 19th-century Persia that teaches the unity of all religions and humanity.
The faith emerged from Babism and centers on the teachings of Baha'u'llah, whom adherents regard as the most recent in a line of divine messengers.
Baha'is believe in the equality of men and women.
The community has faced persecution, particularly in Iran.
