The Epistle to the Son of the Wolf is the last major work of Baháʼu'lláh, founder of the Baháʼí Faith, written in 1891 just before his death in 1892.[1] It is a letter written to "the son of the Wolf," Shaykh Muhammad Taqi known as Áqá Najafi (1846-1914),[2]: 281 a Muslim cleric in Isfáhán, where his family was the most powerful clerical family.[2][3] Baháʼu'lláh called the father, Shaykh Muhammad Báqir (1819-1883),[2] the Wolf because of his responsibility for the execution of the Nahrí brothers in Isfahan in 1879.[4][5] The father and son were known for their persecution of the Baháʼís.[2]
