Shrine of `Abdu'l-Bahá, Sacred mausoleum in Acre, Israel

The Shrine of ʻAbdu'l-Bahá is a religious monument under construction near ʻAkká, beside the Riḍván Garden, on land consecrated by Baháʼu'lláh's footsteps. Iranian-Canadian architect Hossein Amanat designed it, with the inner sanctum set at the heart of a garden that forms the roof and extends beyond it. A sunburst pattern radiates from the resting place across the garden; a fire on 8 April 2022 damaged the dome's scaffolding and delayed the project.

In April 2019 the Universal House of Justice announced that the time had come to build a permanent resting place for ʻAbdu'l-Bahá, to stand near the Riḍván Garden on land consecrated by Baháʼu'lláh's footsteps. On 7 May 2019 it named Iranian-Canadian architect Hossein Amanat, designer of Tehran's Azadi Tower, and released his design concept on 19 September 2019. A fire on 8 April 2022, caused by welding sparks igniting scaffolding and polystyrene formwork, delayed the work; an investigation in July 2022 ruled it accidental.

The shrine is being built for ʻAbdu'l-Bahá, whom Baháʼu'lláh named the "Centre of the Covenant" and sole authoritative interpreter of his teachings, a role he held from 1892 until his death in 1921. His remains still lie in a vault beneath the Shrine of the Báb on Mount Carmel in Haifa, about 10 km from ʻAkká.

The shrine is still under construction near the Riḍván Garden outside ʻAkká, so it cannot be visited; ʻAbdu'l-Bahá's remains stay in a vault beneath the Shrine of the Báb in Haifa, about 10 km away. A fire on 8 April 2022 damaged scaffolding and dome forms, and no completion date has been set.

The architect, Hossein Amanat, drew the design from a prayer of ʻAbdu'l-Bahá asking to be made "as dust in the pathway of Thy loved ones"; ʻAbdu'l-Bahá had wished to be buried in the sands between Haifa and ʻAkká. Amanat also designed the Azadi Tower in Tehran and the Baháʼí House of Worship in Apia, Samoa.
