Hidden Words
''Hidden Words'' (''Kalimát-i-Maknúnih'', ) is a book written in Baghdad around 1857 by Bahá'u'lláh, the founder of the Bahá'í Faith. This work is written partly in Arabic and partly in Persian.
''The Hidden Words'' is written in the form of a collection of short utterances, 71 in Arabic and 82 in Persian, in which Bahá'u'lláh claims to have taken the basic essence of certain spiritual truths and written them in brief form. Bahá'ís are advised by `Abdu'l-Bahá, the son of Bahá'u'lláh to read them every day and every night and to implement its latent wisdom into their daily lives. He also said that ''The Hidden Words'' is "a treasury of divine mysteries" and that when one ponders its contents, "the doors of the mysteries will open."
== History ==
There is a Shi'a Muslim tradition called "Mushaf of Fatimah" (), which speaks of Fatimah upon the passing of her father, Muhammad. There are several versions of this tradition, but common to all are that the angel Gabriel appeared to her and consoled her by telling her things that she wrote in a book. According to one tradition〔(Imamat vs. Prophethood (Part II) )〕 they were prophesies. The book, if ever physical, did not survive, and was seen to be something that the Mahdi would reveal in the last days.
Bahá'ís believe that ''The Hidden Words'' was revealed by Bahá'u'lláh in fulfillment of this tradition. Indeed Bahá'u'lláh originally named the book ''The Book of Fatimah'' (), though he later referred to it in its modern appellation.〔(Epistle to the Son of the Wolf )〕 This aspect of fulfillment corresponds with the Bahá'í beliefs that end times prophesies of all the world's religions are to be interpreted mystically and metaphorically. This puts the Bahá'í understanding of what Gabriel revealed to Fatimah somewhat at odds with the Shi'a traditions.
