Such a photograph does exist, but it is treated with extreme reverence and viewed only in special circumstances. It is never published by Baha&#8217;is, not would Baha&#8217;is reproduce it.<\/p>\n<p>Baha&#8217;u&#8217;llah (1817-1892) is considered by Baha&#8217;is to be a new and independent Messenger from God.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As Australian Baha&#8217;is prepare to celebrate a Baha&#8217;i holy day, they are welcoming the launch of a new Web site.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":13,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[13,1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1191","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-media-releases","category-uncategorised"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v22.2 -
