List of writings of Bahá'u'lláh

Bahá'u'lláh, founder of the Bahá'í Faith, wrote many books, tablets and prayers, of which only a fraction has been translated into English until now. He revealed thousands of tablets with a total volume more than 70 times the size of the Qur'an and more than 15 times the size of the Old and New Testaments of the Bible.
