A few years before the founding of the state of Israel, the third leader of the Baha’i faith, Shoghi Effendi Rabbani (1896-1957), asked the Baha’is of northern Palestine to leave, and most left for Jordan and Lebanon. These Baha’is, together with those in Mashghara, form a small community that has found its place in the religious mosaic of Lebanon; prominent members included Zeine N. Zeme, a respected historian of Arab nationalism and an important public intellectual and AUB professor, and H. M. Balyuzi, author and one of the founders of the BBC Persian service. The community remained small, however, for in the 1950s and 1960s Baha'is were not allowed to visit Beirut (resident Baha'is were exempt) because after 1948 a number of descendants of Abdul-Baha who had been excommunicated had settled in that city. One of these, incidentally, a great-granddaughter of Abdul-Baha by the name of Leila Shahid, became PLO representative in Paris in 1994.
