H.S.M. Taqí Manshadí - He is mentioned on p. vi. of The Tablets of 'Abdu'l-Bahá Abbas, Vol. 1, as one of the translators of those Tablets. Might he also be the Siyyid Muhammad-Taqei Manshadí who was memorialized by 'Abdu'l-Bahá in Memorials of the Faithful, pp. 54-57 and in Some Answered Questions, p. 271? (Today "Taki" would be transliterated as "Taqí".) Mírzá Husayn-i-Isfaháni- Known as Mishkín-Qalam ("musk-scented pen") is the 15th Apostle of Bahá’u’lláh and the most celebrated calligrapher of the Bahá’í Faith. The calligraphic symbol of "The Greatest Name" which adorns most Bahá’í households is a reproduction of his original rendering. A brief biography of his life appears on pgs. 270-272 of Eminent Bahá’ís in the Time of Bahá’u’lláh. Habíbu’lláh Shírází--[No information found as of this date.] E.C. Getsinger--Dr. Edward Getsinger, the husband of Lua Getsinger, was in the first group of Western pilgrims to visit 'Abdu'l-Bahá on December 10, 1898. God Passes By, p. 257. He also made the original voice recording of the Master’s voice. |
