Baháʼí Faith

Founded in the 19th century by the Baháʼu’lláh, the Bahá’í faith is a monotheistic Abrahamic religion that teaches unity of religions and unity of humanity.  It is a comparatively small faith with five to eight million adherents worldwide.

The nine-pointed star is used as a symbol of spiritual completion. As the Bahá’í Faith claims to be the fulfillment of the expectations of all prior religions, the symbol reflects that sense of fulfillment and completeness.
