Táhirih (Persian: طاهره Tahere "The Pure One" - Táhirih is the Bahá'í preferred transliteration), also called Qurratu l-`Ayn (Arabic: قرة العين "Solace/Consolation of the Eyes") are both titles of Fatimah Baraghani (1814 or 1817 – August 16–27, 1852), an influential poet and theologian of the Bábí faith in Iran. Her life, influence and execution made her a key figure of the religion. The daughter of Mulla Muhammad Salih Baraghani, she was born into one of the most prominent families of her time. Táhirih led a radical interpretation that though it split the Babi community, wedded Messianism with Bábism.
As a young girl she was educated privately by her father and showed herself a proficient writer. Whilst in her teens she married the son of her uncle, with whom she had a difficult marriage. In the early 1840s she became familiar with the teachings of Shaykh Ahmad and began a secret correspondence with his successor Sayyid Kazim Rashti. Táhirih travelled to the Shi'i holy city of Karbala to meet Kazim Rashti, but he died a number of days before her arrival. In 1844 aged about 27, she became acquainted with the teachings of the Báb and accepted his religious claims. She soon won renown and infamy for her zealous teachings of his faith and "fearless devotion". Subsequently exiled back to Iran, Táhirih taught her faith at almost every opportunity. The Persian clergy grew resentful of her and endeavoured to have her imprisoned and stopped. She battled with her family throughout her life who wanted her to return to the traditional beliefs of her family.

Ein Theaterstück über das Leben der großen Dichterin und Vorkämpferin für die Rechte der Frauen – Tahirih. ‚Ihre Eloquenz‘, sagt ‘Abdu'l-Bahá, ‚war der Schrecken ihres Zeitalters, und ihre Vernunft versetzte die Welt in Aufruhr‘. Sie war ein ‚Feuerbrand der Gottesliebe‘, und eine ‚Lampe, die aus der Gottes Güte leuchtet‘. Ihre antiklerikale Haltung und die herausragende Rolle, die sie als Frau in der neuentstandenen Religion des Báb spielte, führten schließlich zu ihrer Hinrichtung im Jahre 1852. Noch heute wird Tahirih von vielen Menschen in westlichen Ländern für ihren Mut und von vielen persisch sprechenden Menschen zudem für ihre Dichtkunst verehrt.

Hello and welcome to the Baha'i Blogcast with me your host, Rainn Wilson. In this series of podcasts I interview members of the Baha’i Faith and friends from all over the world about their hearts, and minds, and souls, their spiritual journeys, what they’re interested in, and what makes them tick. In this episode I interview Layli Miller-Muro, founder and Executive Director of the Tahirih Justice Centre, a non-profit which provides free legal services to women and girls who are fleeing human rights abuses. The organization which was founded in 1997 and serves nearly 19,000 women aims to promote a world where women and girls enjoy equality and live in safety and dignity. In this interview Layli and I talk about her aspirations for service as a youth, her early experience as a lawyer, how ...
For Baha’is, work done in the spirit of service to others is, as Abdu’l-Baha puts it, “the highest form of worship.” In this new series of video essays, journalist Temily Tianmay explores the professions, occupations and crafts of various Baha’is, to see how they express the powerful injunction of Baha’u’llah that work equals worship. http://bahaiteachings.org/interview-with-tahirih-justice-centers-founder

This is SpiritPlants DJ Zart's full interview with Shaykh Nima Wahid Azal, Founder of the Fatimiya Sufi Order. They discuss many topics ranging from Islamic Occultism, spiritual use of DMT, esoteric Shi'a Islam, the Babi/Bayani Faith, the figure of Tahirih, etc. I have decided to leave up the previous downloads of this interview, which can be viewed in 10 or 11 separate parts; but I thought it would be more convenient to have different options, hence this version. Salaam Alaikum, Ya NUR, Shalom Aleichem.
One of my partners once told me that
"The only thing bigger than your will to do something
Is your will not to do something
And even that's the power of your own will
Man, Tahir, love life
Whether good or bad times
I'ma climb?
Make it all better instead of sitting around uptight
Looking down cos it ain't right
Whatcha gon do is the question
Mope around fessing
I stuttin nothing cos nothing stuttin me
When them chips get low
And I got no dough
Sleeping on the floor
Haters been poor and always will be
Cos I know my self-worth, haters can't kill me
See I realize that
Niggas need to ask themselves how they feel about that
Whether you trying to get paid
Or trying to get off crack
But you can't and you ain't unless you change that
What you think is what you will see
How you act is how you will be
Say it's hard and it never will be easy
Make a fist if you feel me
Chill if you can't
Nigga ain't and you will see
[Shaunda Steele-Williams]
Sometimes I sit back and look up to sky
Asking myself why do I try (will power, will power)
Do we begin to unite
These pessimists
Cowards don't exist
Scared to take a risk
Turn around and be the first to make a diss
Try to keep it crisp and tight and let it rip
If it don't work, at least I tried
Hell I coulda died not satisfied
You said you couldn't but you lied
People don't try cos they petrified
Of what though
I ain't even worried about the po-po
And once we ??? them
There ain't a place that can't go
And bump takin things slow
Watching people shit from get-go
In my way-get blowed
In my space-get towed
Use shit as fertilizer
Make yourself grow and get wiser
What you think is what you will see
How you act is how you will be
Say it's hard and it never will be easy
Make a fist if you feel me
Chill if you can't
Nigga ain't and you will see
(Shaunda Steele-Williams)
Sometimes I sit back and look up to sky
Asking myself why do I try (will power, will power)
Do we begin to unite
You better wake up, get up, and big on up
You better wake up and big on up
Say what? Wake up, get up, big on up
Wake up and big on up
You better wake up, get up, and big on up
You better wake up and big on up
Say what? Wake up, get up, big on up
Wake up and big on up
Start it off with a mix of sand
Add water with the sun and some help from man
Let the mix just sit 'til you get cement
Then form a rectangle and you get some bricks
And when you get bricks
No need to stall
Stack bricks real tall
And you get brick walls
Get a plan
Keep it going til you figure things out
Work your plan
Like you know it til you get a brick house
Yea gon send this out to all political prisoners
Worldwide, know what I'm sayin
Behind enemy lines and on the streets
It's all the same game
To my nigga Oshawn, stay strong soldier
Cos when you get home, you know we got you dog
Believe that
[Robert Williams]
True thinking is a deliberative act of the mind
Held fast to its task
Good or bad
The mind will bring into you life what you conceive
Strong will is the master of the body
Directed in the ? in the dictates of desire or reason
Will is itself power to bring forth the motive
On impluse that is strongest
Be it positive or negative
As is the mind, so is the will
Contemplate confidence and belief in your will
So your mind will be clothed
With the power to have all possessions
Self-possessions, self-restraints, self-direction
And self-complusion to have anything you desire
The law of the will is the law of all rounds
Of symmetric character of self
God gave us a choice to direct thy will
And the power to be or not to be
