Will and Testament of Abdul Baha is Fraudulent
The Will and Testament of Abdul Baha is Fradulent
If Abdul Baha had had any secret intention of appointing Shoghi Effendi as Guardian of the Baha’i Cause, it does not seem plausible that he would have excluded him from the entourage that accompanied him on his trip through Europe and America during 1912. Shoghi Effendi at that time was eighteen years of age and spoke and wrote English, Persian and Arabic; yet he was not included in this trip. Even after Abdul Baha returned to Palestine, instead of choosing Shoghi Effendi as his secretary, he chose Ahmad Sohrab, who had accompanied him to Europe and America, and who continued as his secretary for five succeeding years.
It is important for those who are interested in the Baha’i Religion to free them from the idea that the family of Abdul Baha is a “Holy Family.†In fact his family, and “in-laws,†with the exception of his wife and sister, were somewhat materialistic, and viewed the religion more or less as a little family affair with a strong bent toward organization. For years they have indoctrinated, more or less, the pilgrims who visited the home of Abdul Baha, me included, with this conception of religion. This partly nullified the great universal teachings. The result was that when Abdul Baha passed from this world in November, 1921. Some of his family, who had laid the ground-work for organization through these pilgrims while he was alive, hastened to establish it more firmly when he died. All this resulted in making the Baha’i Movement, under the dictatorship of Shoghi Effendi, an organization which for narrowness and bigotry has no parallel in history except in the dark ages.â€
Ms. Ruth White and Mr. Ahmad Sohrab extensively discuss the degree to which the purported will and testament depart stylistically and in content from Abdu’l-Baha’s widely published and recognized views. Coupled with the professionally forensic judgment of Dr. C. Ainsworth Mitchell, the burden of proof that the will and testament are legitimate lies with the Haifan Baha’is, the beneficiaries of the forgery. After more than 90 years, it’s clear they’re not going to admit to the crime or allow independent forensic scrutiny of it. Naturally the Haifan Baha’i Ideology is based on this Fraudulent Testament which sooner or later every Baha’i will come to know.
