Táhirih "The Pure One"

We will be learning more about spiritual figures from history this year in children's classes, focussing mainly on the manifestations of God (e.g. Moses, Jesus, Muhammad and Bahá’u’lláh). This class however, focussed on Táhirih (the name given by Bahá’u’lláh means "Pure One"), who's thirst for spiritual knowledge started her on a path that resulted in her becoming a champion for equality in a time when women were anything but considered equal nearly 200 years ago.
