DÍA’U’LLÁH ASGHARZÁDIH, Knight of Bahá’u’lláh page 24 |
|
Born in 1880 into a Bahá’í family which emigrated to Ishqábád
when he was fifteen years old, Día’u’lláh was throughout his life
an active Bahá’í. His first pilgrimage was in 1903, his second was
469
seventeen years later, after which he settled in London, and his
third was at the time of the passing of the Master when Shoghi
Effendi gave him the task of making copies of the Master’s Will
from the original. He was a member of the National Assembly
for various periods between 1925 and 1941 and settled in Jersey
as a Knight of Bahá’u’lláh in 1953 at the age of 73. He passed
away in Jersey in April 1956. (“Bahá’í World”, Vol. XIII, p. 881.)
