Light and glory, greeting and praise be upon the Hands of His Cause, through whom the light of fortitude hath shone forth . . . Bahá'u'lláh


The first Hands of the Cause of God were appointed by Bahá'u'lláh. They were given various responsibilities, particularly the protection and propagation of His Faith. 'Abdu'l-Bahá, in Memorials of the Faithful, referred to other believers as Hands of the Cause and in His Will and Testament included a provision calling upon the Guardian of the Faith to appoint Hands of the Cause. Shoghi Effendi named a number of believers Hands of the Cause after their passing. In the last years of his ministry he raised 32 women and men from all continents to this rank.
