Um felicidade pode acessar estes videos e escutar estcanção em árabe dos Lugares Sgrados. Estive m Akká há muitos anos. Sõnia

[ProtestantsRUs]

This is beautiful chant, but the place is also beautiful in the video. It reminds me of a sort of Garden of Eden.

[FraterNM]

Praise Thee ineffible source of Divinity that is ALL!!! This immediately unites one to G0D

[DarthMaul8065]

What is the name of the person chanting this? It would be great if some Arabic speaking Baha'is would record some Baha'i literature at librivox.org, a volunteer initiative to record every book in the public domain.

[TheMarianluz]

lo que queremos como creyentes en D ios y Baha"u llah es simplesmente la paz e el amor en los corazones de los seres humanos ,no sabes el milagro que produz el amor universal...

[matagueros069]

...de quien es esta preciosa voz ?

[GwladdusDdu]

I am curious - why is a Persian festival's chant sung in Arabic and not in Farsi?

[sjengtube2010]

Thank you. A gift in itself, this beautiful song. Makes one realize the beauty of life, of all our lives, no matter who we are or where we come from. Thank you.

[mayngo62]

This is so absolutely, magnificently beautiful. I wish I understood the language but her voice seems to carry a message that the soul can understand regardless of language barriers.

[tangoseal1]

I live in America. Its very green here and free and we dont shoot each other over religion. I feel for you though as my father in law is Palestinian. I wish you luck but the waring will NEVER end. Both the God of Christianity and the prophet Muhammad have said it so.

[MyTbradley]

Soooo Beautiful.....Much Respect : ) peace

[fatmaundhakim]

eine prima stimme und schön gesungen , danke dir

[99Saboor]

[OneLove2864]

Hmmmmmmmm.

[geva90]

beautiful bahi garden in israel, haifa

[lifeisart37]

this is gorgeous... I am not religious, but I think chant is one of the most beautiful things ever; an expression of the divine relationship between God and man.

[miss21nz]

[grover173]

Profoundly beautiful chant...it brings tears to my eyes. Thank you for posting this. Happy Naw Ruz to my Baha'i (and Iranian, and Zoroastrian!) friends.

[NanaTeeCee]

How beautiful, I loved this, and my husband Barry and I will be in the Holy Land on the 12th April, starting our Baha'i Pilgrimage on the 13th. We will have a 10 day Pilgrimage, and stay in the area for 11 Nights. You can listen to my chanting too on if you like.

[sagun111]

Happy NawRuz to all the Bahais! Pray my friends, that GOD will constantly guide us in HIS straight path!

AllahahuAbha!

[nemats]

Akka and Haifa are occupied by Jews and Arabs. I have been there a number of times and found them living peacefully side by side.

I say Arabs and Jews shopping at each other's businesses without sensing any tension. I hope that you will be able to visit your home in peace. lol.

[skyliner288]

@nemats its acre...

[Edithalba1844]

Dear friend! For this purpose came Bahá'u'lláh - to unite humankind and to remove all artificial borders from our beautiful globe, inviting every single soul to dwell wherever he or she feels happy! Just be confident, the time will come! And I'd love to meet you right there, in Palestine!

Peace and unity is all the lands need to be restored to a most spiritual place.

Proud Jewish heritage and Bahai :)

[Etocretan]

I wish it had English subtitles. Can anyone translate for me.

[nemats]

The translation is in the 'more info' section above right. Below my name. just click on it once and you can see the whole thing.

[PinkRythym189]

[nemats]

It's a prayer for the first day of spring, Naw Ruz. The Persian, and Baha'i New Year.

[Etocretan]

Oh....thanks...much appreciated.

[Etocretan]

Where were these pics from.

[nemats]

Pics are from gardens surrounding Baha'i shrines and holy places in Haifa on Mount Carmel.

[Etocretan]

Yeah I wikipedia'd Baha'i right after I saw the video. Looks like a beautiful place.

[FerretDude15]

[bratfink74]

Amazing, great to hear a few times a week. And it isn't just a persian holiday. The Baha'i Faith is world wide.

[MamaLaw66]

Hearing this soothes the soul. Gorgeous.

[drwindow1]

I can understand Arabic, fluent in it. Most beautiful prayer I have ever heard. I know it's a Persian holiday only, but I can appreciate it.

[nemats]

This is a prayer for the festival of Naw Ruz or No Rooz, which is the first day of Spring, New Years Day and the Festival at the end of the month of fasting for Baha'is world wide.

Naw Ruz has been the New Year for Persians for thousands of years.

[CaptainFF]

Hey dandesade. Thats a nice quote. where is it from?

[dandesade]

rest easy children; for sleep is yet to come; i am still here and will watch for eternity, and in you i will live; if you have peace in your soul.

[gotheight]

Beautiful.

[moe1979]

Islam was already authentic, Mohammad (SAW) was a divine miracle that finished the project of god, and thats it, there will be no afterwards of any type of religion that will be as authentic as the sunnah. Islam is what it is, and bahai deviates from the teaching of allah, and what he bestowed onto Mohammad (SAW)

[nemats]

Each time God sends a Great One to us we are given new life, but the Truth each Manifestation (prophet) brings is the same. The Truth never changes but man's vision changes.

[tosan1]

What is "Naw Ruz Tablet"? Has anything to do with Persian Norooz (new year)???

[nemats]

Naw Ruz is the same as Norooz. Just different way of transliterating it into English.

Letters and writings of Baha'u'llah are called 'Tablets'. in Arabic tablet is lawh, or lohe.

This tablet was revealed by Baha'u'llah to celebrate and honour Norooz.

[izkrah]

Namats, still don't know the woman's name??? she sings so nice! And do you know what's she saying?. Thanks for sharing

[nemats]

The English words are in the 'about this video' section at the top right of your screen.

I still don't know her name.

[nemahshab]

I loved it, thanks Nemats

[PanAryan]

wat does arabic got to do with nov rooz, this is an insult.

[nemats]

The Baha'i Faith teaches the eradication of all forms of prejudice. This chant is in praise of norooz and it is especially wonderful that it is in Arabic. The hatred and prejudice between all groups of people must be overcome before we can hope to have any form of peace.

[PanAryan]

not acceptable by me, as Arabs hate persians & persian religion such as zorastians & bahaies.

[nemats]

I'm a Persian Baha'i. I have many Arab friends whom I love and cherish. Some of them are Baha'i. I also have some friends who are Iranian Moslems. Just because a few ignorant leaders in Iran have killed some of my relatives and tortured my cousin, doesn't mean that I should hate all Iranian moslems. Far from it.

[PanAryan]

well obviously they are educated iam referring to the parasites with in the society.

if that makes u happy!

[nemats]

;-)

[moe1979]

Do you consider yourself a muslim ? It bothers me that another faith tries to manipulate it. How do you live knowing that your religion is haram ?

[nemats]

Baha'is believe that Muhammad was a prophet of God and brought a Holy Book that educated and guided millions of barbaric people.

Baha'is also believe that God's Revelation will never cease. God has sent Divine Educators from time immemorial and will continue to do so in the future.

Muslim means resigned to the Will of God and I hope that I can claim to be.

[girltube5318008]

Shalom

[DaniUMarin]

I really like this song and woman!!..Who is she? Is there music of her singing? I would like to buy some of her music...Sincerely, A great fan!

[nemats]

Hi Dani:

She does not have any commercially available recordings that I know about.

[DaniUMarin]

What is her name? Where did you get her music?

[nemats]

I got the audio from a friend. The lady's name was not given. I added the slide show.

Someone told that she is a Baha'i in the Egypt.

[teddythefrency]

I think this chant is a chant from the arabic Bayan, one of the holy scriptures of bahais.

I am not bahai (but oriental christian) , I am not sure I think this branch is a dissident branch from shia islam.

Bahais are known to be unviolent persons.

[nemats]

Hello teddy: the chant is from the writings of Baha'u'llah and the translation is included in the "about this video" section.

The Baha'i Faith is an independent world religion, much like previous world religions of Judaism, Christianity, Buddhism, etc.

[tomtomttom]

I like how Bahai's do not limit the public singing of there religion's book only to men. Women are allowed to publicly sing it to. Giving equality opportunity to women has been a big problem in the middle east. Bahai's understand that and do give equal opportunity to women. Congrads on that Bahais.

[tomtomttom]

Arabic when it is song sounds pretty nice, that is why some people get impressed with islam. But people need to know that is just the language and the sound, not the philosophy. That is why I have 100 times more respect for Bahai. Sounds good and an ok philosophy.

[nemats]

Islam had a civilizing influence which cannot be denied by any fair minded observer.

Power hungry people commit shameful acts in the name of religion and use religion to excite the ignorant into a frenzy to do shameful things, like destroy Baha'i cemeteries in Iran (recently) or kill Muslims during the crusades centuries ago, or to crucify Jesus Christ 2000 years ago.

It's not religion in its pure form that does these horrible things. It's the corrupt among the leaders of religions that do it.

[tomtomttom]

I agree islam was corrupted that is why they act the way they do. And I believe it happend the moment Mohammed died.

[CaptainFF]

well said, my friend!

[antiiraqattack]

it brings a tear to my eye, because it is true. the infighting still happens today in my faith.

[tosan1]

let me tell you what was Islam's influence in civilization:

Islam united the illitrate Arabs of dark ages to attack to civilizied lands of Persia and loot their golds, knowledge, and civilization. Later when the Muslim Arabs invaded Europe they *carried* the knowledge they had learned from the Persians to Europe.

Yes, Islam did have an influence in ****TRANSFERING***** knowledge and civilization from Persia to the rest of the word.

[nemats]

You have to admit that the Arabs who understood the meaning of Islam and were touched by its civilizing influence are much better people than the Arabs before Mohammad (SAW).

Religion has always been the cause of good until it fell into the hands of politicians!

[bryansaccount]

lots of emotional feelings while hearing it

[Raminzadeh]

thank you for posting this beautiful chant. Nothing is more moving than listening to words of Baha'u'llah when chnted with correct arabic accent. our prayers are with our friends in Egypt.

[uruben1]

would love to have more from this enchanting voice can I buy a cd with more of the prayers special ones

[nemats]

I'm not aware of any CDs existing yet. I got this from some Baha'is in Egypt.

[davidqohail]

is this a bahai woman reciting quran???

[nemats]

She is a Baha'i woman reciting Baha'i Scripture.

This prayer was revealed by Baha'u'llah for the festival of Norooz which aside being the new year, is also the festival for ending the Baha'i fast.

[pashtonkhan]

some one translate it plz

[nemats]

For full translation plz click on 'more' in the video description. Regards,

Nemat S.

[babygirl3882]

Although I am a confirmed atheist, this is the finest Quarnic or prayer chant in Arabic I have ever heard. I only understand a few words, but the beauty of this voice transcends all religion and language. One does not have to underdtand nor belong to any religion to enjoy it. I listen to it many times every day. Please post here if anyone knows about other works by this person.

[Jakooka]

Beautiful prayer and beautiful Arabic. It's nice to hear a Baha'i prayer chanted by a native speaker of Arabic. Usually it's by a Persian and they never do it right. They're great at Persian but not Arabic.

[heshcri]

Praise Be To God that we are coming closer to the words of His Beloved Ya Allah-al- Mustaqus.

[James1261]

Arabic is such a nice language. So is Persian.

[Soergjan]

Sehr schön.

[Jahmichael123]

what an amazing voice, and language

[the1muse1]

this is amazing can someone email me the arabic lyrics and english ones too

[kazangelic]

sublime ... many thx
