Grand  Beituladl  of Baha’ism, Legitimacy  Deadlock

Seyyed Ali Esmaeili

The  administrative  organization  of Bahaists ,called by shoghi Afandi as administrative order of Amrollah  is run  under the administrative and clerical center of Bahaists called Grand Divine Beituladl which is located in Haifa (in occupied Palestine).Abbas Afandi(Abdolbaha )the second leader of Bahaists founded the leadership and administrative organization of the Bahaists on two pillars of Vali Amr and Beituladl in Alvah Vasaya (scripts of advice),which is known as the chapter and covenant of the Bahaist society ,defined the competency of each of them and urged the members of the organization ,Beituladl,servants of Amrollah and all Bahaist followers to obey the orders of the Vali Amrollah .The term Beituladl was first used by Hosseinali Baha in the book Aghdas. According to the constitution of Beituladl its members are elected every five years in the presence of the representatives of the national forums in each country during their gathering within the Assembly of the International Bahaist Council through the majority of votes .Structurally Beituladl has extensive organizational units which cover all individual and social domains of Bahaists in the world. In fact the structure of Beituladl is similar to a comprehensive party whose members are obliged to abide by its ruling principles in all cases, and each member is active in one or more organizational units of the party. At the order of the leaders of Bahaists, the Bahaist society shall be ruled by the Velayate Amr) Elaboration Organization and Beituladl, is the Canon Organization. According to the writings of the Bahaist leaders systematization, internal solidarity as well as provision for expediencies of the Bahaist society would be achieved in light of agreement, continuity and continuous cooperation of Vali Amr institution and Beituladl organization. Whereas Beituladl can in no way replace Vali Amr organization the absence of Vali Amr organization has created increasing crisis for the Bahaist organization, causing it to face with a insolvable enigma. Consequently, a large group of the followers have separated from the Bahaist organization and many questions have been raised to Beituladi organization, forcing the organization to make nonsense and contradictory statements.
