The Oneness of the World of Humanity in Baha’ism?!

[    part  1 ]

Among the sporadic propagations, you may have heard the name “Baha’ism”. This name belongs to that ideology which claims to have been received by a man called Baha’u’llah (the glory of god) from god and which contains divine commands. Now it is not bad to see what the opinion of the question of “the oneness and solidity of mankind together” and what orders they give through a research into the original texts of this religion.

The point which should be mentioned here before any other one is that in this research, our authorities are the original books of the leaders of this religion not the grandiloquent pamphlets nor the grandiloquent lectures of the Baha’i missionaries , because we want to discover the real feature of this ideology not its painted or distinguished one . These books were all written either in Arabic or in Persian, and only some of them have been translated into English or into other languages. (You will see that it was also advisable for them not to translate them.)Our documents in this article are from the very books published by national Baha’i publishing trust.

It is not so difficult for a researcher into the Baha’i works to become aware of the question of oneness of mankind from the point of view of Baha’ism, because in his earliest studies, he will soon come across an instance, of the orders which the leaders of this ideology give to their followers in numerous cases to fight against others. For instance, look into this instance in order to see what order Baha’u’llah, the founder of this religion gives to his followers.”0-bahais, be an inevitable chastisement for those who have not believed (in Baha’ism)[1].” That is, spare nothing to persecute them. He did not become content with this for expanding the division among men and issued another order , saying“0 my friends and 0 my choice people , hear my call ! if you have felt the smell of unbelief from any one less than what can be supposed, that is ,even less than a particle ,turn him away any more. This is an order which we have re-commended to you in all of our writings.[2]”

We see that in this order, a deep and expansive abyss of rancor and division has been created between the Baha’is and the others and does not allow the slightest contact to be made. Nevertheless, is there any possibility for unity among human groups? The sayings of Baha’u’llah in the recent document showed us that this recommendation had been made to his followers in “all the writings “, and by studying most documents ,these very saying  are to be found again in other forms not more. Now then, it is not also bad to cast a glance at the manifestation of these orders in the acts of the leaders of this religion and see how this very morale, of conflict and division is practically effected and what the consequences of causing this disunion are and whether their acts also confirm the result of our research into their saying or not.

An investigation of the life history of the leaders of this religion put at our disposal the conclusion that they are truly perfect examples of these programs , because we see that everywhere, they perform their duties well as agents of disunion . “Bab” (the gate) , the first link of this chain ,who is the founder of Babism and who is called the herald of Babism, invited his followers to riot and fight against Muslims in his earliest orders through promulgating his religion. In this manner, he caused some of the Iranians who had turned to him to be killed. Baha’u’llah, the founder of Baha’ism , was

expelled from Iran and was exiled to

Iraq

Iraq as the result of the plots which he had woven against the then government. The account of the riot and frequent conflicts which he and his followers had brought about in Najaf and Karbela-the important cities of Iraq needs a voluminous book so that we may be able to write its account completely. He was exiled toIstanbul as the result of these measures causing conflict. There also, his riotous acts, which still continued, caused him together with a group of his adherents to be exiled to Adrena. The conflicts and massacres caused by the bahais in Adrena induced the then government to send them away to Akka.
