In response to Mr. ...’ email letter of 8 February 2018 and
his question about an unknown language spoken by Bahá’u’lláh, his friend may
have been referring to the language and script known as the Lisán-i-Badí‘ and
the Khaṭṭ-i-Badí‘, mentioned by Bahá’u’lláh in Epistle to the Son of the Wolf
as part of His comments on the need for an auxiliary world language. When asked
about the above language, Shoghi Effendi responded by saying that it was
concealed in the divine knowledge of Bahá’u’lláh and since no one had inquired
about it, it has remained in concealment.2 On this subject, Mr. ...’ may be
interested in an account found in the Hand of the Cause of God Hasan Balyuzi’s
book, Bahá’u’lláh: The King of Glory (Oxford: George Ronald, 1980), pages
113–14.
