tag name Ḥaḍrat type: Religions, Middle Eastern; Terminology; Translation, languages web link bahai-library.com/tags/Hadrat variations or mis-spellings hazrat; hadra; hazret ( حضرت ) related tags Honorifics notes A title mainly used in Bahá'í texts to refer to Manifestations of God, Prophets, and monarchs with reverence, though Bahá'u'lláh and 'Abdu'l-Bahá sometimes used it to address certain Bahá'ís and others respectfully. It can be translated as "His Holiness" (for Manifestations of God) or "His Eminence". In Baha'i usage, it is frequently seen in titles like "Ḥaḍrat-i-Báb" (His Holiness the Báb), Ḥaḍrat-i-A‘lá (His Holiness the Exalted One, also refering to the Báb), or "Ḥaḍrat-i-Bahá'u'lláh" (His Holiness Bahá'u'lláh). In authorized English translations of the Bahá'í Writings, for accessibility for English readers, this honorific is often omitted.
