This Trilogy presents the lives of Shaykh Salm n, Nab l-i-A'zam and Mull Ṣ diq, three personages closely related to the early years of the Bah ' Faith in Persia. Shaykh Salm n was Bah 'u'll h's on-foot courier travelling annually between Persia and the Holy Land. Nab l-i-A'zam was the chronicler who carefully documented events of the Heroic Age of the Bah ' Faith and a talented poet. Mull Ṣ diq stood out as the one who travelled broadly disseminating the new Faith with wisdom, dignity and grace. The first was illiterate, while the second was a self-made scholar who started out in life as a shepherd, whereas Mull Ṣ diq came from an educated family of means. Empowered by faith, certitude, and love to Bah 'u'll h these three men became a new creation, the like of whom we rarely see in human existence. To their wonder, amazing capacities and invincible powers became theirs, which made it possible for them to endure the most formidable vicissitudes with an ever-increasing spirit of faith and certitude. After glimpsing the greatness of such a Message, nothing had the power to deter them in their path of service - not age, nor lack of means, nor family circumstances, nor the constant danger of being beaten and killed.

Varq and R ḥu'll h: 101 Stories of Bravery on the Move is the extraordinary story of a father and a son that arose in the 19th century to spread the Faith of Bah 'u'll h throughout Iran with indomitable strength and resilience. Varq the father, a physician and a talented poet, and his gifted adolescent son R ḥu'll h, both of penetrating spiritual insight, took the New Gospel with zeal and courage to a generation blind in the most dire fanaticism. Operating in the midst of a country sunk into corruption and bigotry, Varq and R ḥu'll h were able to teach both the rich and the poor, the prince and the commoner, the scholar and the illiterate, the believer and the laic, in freedom or in prison. Their saga ended with their tragic martyrdom in the royal prison of Tehran in 1896 but has continued to live like a legend inspiring Bah ' s around the world to serve. Varq 's legacy of service and consecration was continued by Val yu'll h Varq and Dr 'Al -Muḥammad Varq , his son and grandson, respectively, all three of whom were designated as Hands of the Cause of God.

Persian Language Version - The dramatic story of the beloved son of Bah 'u'll h, who fell from a skylight in the roof of the prison where he, his family and many other Bah ' s were imprisoned, and who sacrificed his life that others might attain the presence of the Manifestation of God and, ultimately, bring about the unity of the world.It is in the nature of the mystery of sacrifice that those who sacrifice themselves are often not aware of the full extent of the spiritual power they are unlocking. And this seems to have been the case with the act of sacrifice that forms the subject matter of Boris Handal's book.When the son of Bah 'u'll h, M rz Mehd , the Purest Branch, fell from a skylight in the roof of the prison where he, his family and many Bah ' s were imprisoned with the Manifestation of God, he was severely injured and likely to die from his injuries. When offered his life by his father, he chose instead to sacrifice it so that the doors of the prison might open and those who longed to see Bah 'u'll h attain their desire.In accepting this sacrifice, Bah 'u'll h prayed for an even greater objective, 'I have, O my Lord, offered up that which Thou hast given Me, that Thy servants may be quickened, and all that dwell on earth be united.'M rz Mehd The Purest Branch recounts the dramatic story of the short life of one whose sacrifice was raised by Bah 'u'll h to the same station as the great sacrifices of humanity's religious history - Abraham's intended sacrifice of His son, the crucifixion of Christ, the martyrdom of the Im m Husayn - and unleashed the spiritual energies need to achieve the ultimate aim of Bah 'u'll h's revelation: the spiritual regeneration of the individual and the unity of the people of the world.
