DESCRIPTION:May 23 marks the anniversary of the night in 1844 when a young 
 man in Persia named Siyyid Ali-Muhammad quietly announced that He was a Me
 ssenger of God\, come to herald a new age for the world of humanity that w
 ould fulfill prophecy for Christians\, Muslims\, and followers of other re
 ligions. For the people who are now Baha'is\, it was the birth of their re
 ligion.\nBaha'i communities around the world celebrate the anniversary wit
 h special devotional programs and gatherings on the evening of May 22. Bel
 ievers suspend work\, and children and youth take off from school.\nA 25-y
 ear-old merchant at the time of His declaration in 1844\, Siyyid Ali-Muham
 mad became known as the Bab\, which is Arabic for 'gate.' He said His miss
 ion was to prepare the way for a universal Messenger of God who would soon
  appear\, as predicted in the scriptures of the world's major religions. O
 ne of the followers of the Bab\, later known as Baha'u'llah\, announced in
  1863 that He was that Messenger.\nBaha'is consider both the Bab and Baha'
 u'llah to be founders of their faith. The Bab's declaration of His station
  was made in the city of Shiraz in what is now Iran. https://www.faithvict
