Shoghi Effendi Rabbani (March 1, 1897 — November 4, 1957), better known as Shoghi Effendi, was the Guardian and appointed head of the Baha'i Faith from 1921 until his death in 1957. After the death of 'Abdu'l-Baha in 1921, the leadership of the Baha'i community entered a new phase, evolving from that of a single individual to an administrative order with executive and legislative branches, the head of each being the Guardianship and the Universal House of Justice.

His writings are effectively limited to commentaries on the works of the central figures, and broad directives for the future.
