The Pen of Gloryis a compilation taken from the Writings of Baha'u'llah, written in response to specific questions from people wishing to know more about the principles and teachings of the Baha'i Faith. Most interesting is that these people came from various religious backgrounds, which provides the reader with a broad understanding of the central tenets of the Baha'i Faith. In each response, Baha'u'llah answers the question of the seeker and then expands on various related spiritual themes. In doing so, Baha'u'llah has provided us with a collection of far-reaching significance that is surprisingly applicable to the questions of religious seekers today. The Tablets include Gems of Divine Mysteries, Tablet to Manikchi Sahib, Tablet to Mirza Abd'l-Fadl in response to questions of Manikchi Sahib, Tablet of the Seven Questions (Lawh-i-Haft Pursish), and two other tablets.
Baha'u'llah(1817–1892), meaning in Arabic “the Glory of God,” is the Prophet and Founder of the Baha'i Faith. The main theme of Baha'u'llah's message is unity. He taught that there is only one God, that all the world's religions represent one changeless and eternal Faith of God, and that all humanity is one race destined to live in peace and harmony.
