Do
you know what the Baha'I ? Bahá'í is a
religion that is independent and universal, not sects of other religions.
Messenger of the Lord of the Bahá'í religion is Bahá'u'lláh, who announced that
the purpose of His religion is to bring about a spiritual transformation in
people's lives and renew the institutions of society based on the principles of
the oneness of God, oneness of religion, and the unity of all mankind.
Baha'is
claim that all religions of the world comes from one source, namely the basic
unity of all religious truth. as well as the prophets who came from one God
.all religions should adjust between science and education so as to give an
order of peace in the world recognizes equality between nations and their equal
opportunities between men and women. through the basic teachings of the Baha'i
gained many followers around the world.
Education
is compulsory for Every people. Bahá'u'lláh imposes obligations on parents to
educate their children, both women and men. If parents are unable to fulfill
this obligation because of economic circumstances, society must help them. In
addition to learning the skills, expertise, art and science, it should be noted
the character and moral education of children. Without education, one can not
reach its full potential or to contribute positively to society. Therefore,
education must be universal and compulsory. these are some of compilation of education in
