Epistle to the Son of the Wolf

by Bahá'u'lláh

"Epistle to the Son of the Wolf" by Bahá'u'lláh is a letter written in 1891. This final major work addresses a Muslim cleric whose father orchestrated the execution of two Bahá'í brothers. Bahá'u'lláh calls upon the son to repent while recounting historical persecutions and quoting extensively from his previous writings. The letter condenses critical concepts from earlier works and references his will, which names his successor. It stands as a powerful appeal for justice and understanding.
