History. The Bahá'í Faith was founded in 1844 in Iran and has spread to over 230 countries with nearly 6 million believers. Although the Báb was not the founder of The Bahá'í Faith, he was born October 20, 1819 in Iran, and he became a merchant in Shíráz where, on the evening of May 22, 1844, He declared that He was the Qá'im of Shi'a Islám, heralding the imminent advent of the Promised One of all the world's religions. The vast majority of Muslim clerics and government officials rejected His claim and severely persecuted Him and His followers.
