Customs- Bahá'ís and fasting
- Bahá'ís practise fasting as a discipline for the soul. They observe one period of fasting every year.
- Bahá'í prayer
- Prayer is a vital part of Bahá'í spiritual life. There are obligatory prayers that must be said every day, but Bahá'ís believe their whole lives should be lived prayerfully.
- Bahá'í social action
- Bahá'ís see social and economic development projects as an expression of faith in action, but they must be community-led and seek to improve people's moral and spiritual condition too.
- Bahá'í worship
- The main purpose of life for Bahá'ís is to know and love God. Prayer, fasting and meditation are the main ways of achieving this and for making spiritual progress.
