Debunking the Judgment claims of Bahaullah
You know Bahaullah claims that the Judgment Day warned by Christianity and Islam is just rhetoric that actually means the coming of another prophet, namely himself.
Ok, if that was true, then let us take one of his own writings into perspective:
O SON OF BEING! Bring thyself to account each day ere thou art summoned to a reckoning; for death, unheralded, shall come upon thee and thou shalt be called to give account for thy deeds.
Hidden Word # 31
So here Bahaullah talks about a reckoning or a judgment that is supposed to come after this life.
If I said that the \'reckoning\' that he is referring to is actually the coming of another prophet, Baha’is themselves would give me that weird look and say \"can\'t you read, man!\". Of course, because if I were to interpret it as the coming of another prophet, that would instantaneously make Abdul-Baha and Shogi Effendi irrelevant as they didn\'t speak on the matter of another prophet except after a thousand years.
But just imagine if someone claim \'prophethood\' and used this verse as the criteria, I think Baha’is can NEVER accept it.
Let us look now at Islamic traditions about Judgment Day:
And those who believe and do good deeds, they are dwellers of Paradise, they dwell therein forever. (Quran, 2:82)
Baha’is claim that those who believed in Bahaullah had pass the Judgment Day. But as you can see in the Quran, Allah rewards those who do good deeds. If what Baha’is say is true, then how about those people who did good deeds but dies before the coming of Bahaullah, so they didn\'t make it to judgment?
Those who have disbelieved and died in disbelief, the earth full of gold would not be accepted from any of them if it were offered as a ransom. Â They will have a painful punishment, and they will have no helpers.(Quran, 3:91)
Here also is another example where Allah eludes to the punishment of disbelief in God after one\'s passing from this world. So this shows clearly that the judgment comes after death, and does not mean the coming of another \'prophet\'.
