In Paradise
11/04/2013
Ridvan Garden – meaning ‘paradise’ in Arabic. Reprinted with permission of the Bahá’í International Community.
The annual Baha’i festival commemorates the 12 days when Bahá’u’lláh, the founder of the Baha’i Faith, resided in a garden called Ridván (Paradise) in Baghdad, Iraq.
The first (April 21), ninth (April 29) and 12th (May 12) are celebrated as holy days when work is suspended.
