1)  Baha’ism view to other religions which are forerunners of violence

     It is quite certain for everybody that Babism and Baha’ism cults aren’t in fact separated from each other and according to Baha’is, Baha is Bob’s successor. Babism was a cult founded by the Russian politicians headed by Ali Muhammad (entitled Bab) and given to Hussein Ali Nouri (entitled Baha) by the English politicians and continued. This trend was even accomplished contrary to Bab’s will because Bab had announced Hussein Ali Baha’s brother, Mirza Yahya Sobhi Azal (entitled Azal) as his successor.

     At this time, the Babism cult continued by changing it name to Baha’ism because the Baha’is consider Bab as the forerunner of Baha’s emergence. They have accepted his religion and leadership. The Baha’is even assume Bab’s prayer as their main one. They have also accepted and gloried in all the movements, wars and revolutions fulfilled by 18 people called Horouf Hayy [Hayy letter] and other Bab’s followers and all the occurrences mentioned by Nabil Zarandi in his so-call history book. They attribute all the events to God’s liking and call killed Babis as “the martyrs of God’s path. They also consider Horouf Hayy who were the first followers of Bab as the best real followers of God’s path; that is Imam Zaman’s one and praise their behaviors and deeds.

     Thus, they can’t deny this issue that from the beginning of its emergence and creation, Baha’ism caused thousands of people to be killed. Additionally, they talk frequently of peace while the founders of the cult have ordered for fighting and killing since its emergence. In order to achieve their aims, Baha’is killed hundreds of women, kids, the old and the young and didn’t withhold hard-heartedness, cruelty and savagery. It is no doubt that they themselves started the war and attacked instead of defending. Moreover, they call their killed people martyrs because they attribute their aims to God as all political parties and cults do so.

     The Baha’is themselves announcer the number of killed ones since its emergence as twenty thousand. This statistics is quite baseless and a kind of exaggeration. The reason is that if we assume the number of the killed stated in Nabil’s book as more than that it won’t be the same number. The number of Bab and Baha’s followers even after a century can’t be twenty thousands.

     However, it is interesting to be noted that Baha’is claim for being the pioneers in peace, friendship and the unity of the human world. They also express in their beliefs that they avoid enmity in their social intercourses with other parties and religions.

     A part of the book “the contemporary history of Iran”, the technical periodical, Isfand 1387

     “Do the claimants and trumpeters of human world unity who claim for affection and friendship act and follow?”

     As we notice, the Baha’i leaders’ slogans are “the unity of human world”, “general peace”, “abolition of the religious bigotry” and “friendship and affection with others –even enemies-“. “It is claimed that Baha’is behave each tribe honestly, religiously and kindly even with enemies. This is their religious duty. They don’t repenhend each other and consider backbiting as the greatest error in the human world.” Because Baha has frequently expressed that “backbiting and vilification are of satanic temptation which destroy the humane foundation.”

     Religion has been sent down for creation affection and relation among human beings and if it is to cause enmity, it  will be better for it not to exist. According to Abbas Effendi fighting even with evil isn’t allowable; but evil must be considered as angel. The cruel people must be behaved intimately and loyally. You must ask the bloodthirsty wolves for musk like the sweet-smelling gazelles. You must shelter the betrayers!!

     According cursing and anathematizing and whatever causes turbidity, shunning rancor and revenge, Having social intercourses with people kindly whether with the faithful or the atheists and even with enemies are of the principles and teachings of the Baha’i faith to prevent disunity. There isn’t any excommunication and offensiveness disunity. There isn’t any excommunication  and offensiveness in Baha’ism. The Baha’is don’t humiliate the followers of other religions because of differences in beliefs and aims.

     According to Abbas Effendi Baha’is believe “the enemies are friends and aliens are the familiar. Strangers are companions and foes are the beloved. Their aim is to consider the ill-disposed as the charitable. Baha’is believe that they must behave the enemies like friends. Baha’is must be careless about oppression, enmity, hegemony. They must try to change hostility to affection and kindness among nations.”

     Abdul Baha confirms that “You mustn’t speak ironically whether S/he is friend or enemy; but you must pray for all people and ask God for forgiveness.”    

Insulting and blaspheming to Shiites by Bab and Baha

     Arguing with his opponents (Azalis), the Baha’ism leader has called the Shiite scholars as “the ignorant” and the Shiites as “the most bastard and cruel nations”. He writes: “Fie on the Shiite scholars and their followers.”

     He says to Nabil Zarandi: “these who don’t believe in the source of the faith; that is, Bahaullah are the sources of the raffish deeds… .”

     He also insults Shiites by using this phrase: “the ignorant.” He also writes: “The Shiite party consider itself as the greatest and the most perfect part while the Jewish one is has been and is the highest and the most eminent.”

     The Baha’i leaders from Bab to Abbas Effendi and Shoqi Effendi have insulted the Shiite scholars more than other Shiite Iranians.

     They have called the Shiite scholars as: “Pharohs, the oppressive, the sources of delusions and spites, the sensuals, the sources of seditions, worse than the Qajar autocracy agents, the hypocrites, …, vipers, snakes, Scorpios, the bloodthirsty wolves, thieves, the ignorant, vampires, atheists, the bigot and disloyal claimants wearing turbans, the stigmas of nations and etc.”

     The mentioned-above phrases are the ones which have been continually used by the cult leaders (who are the seekers of the unity of the humane world and of friendship with nations) for the Shiite chaste scholars.

     Baha’s statement in the book “Iqan”: “The Shiite great scholars are narrow, long, red worms in the wet land.” “They are faceless and thankless.”

     Shoqi Effendi insults the Islamic Shiite scholars: “May God turn their glory into the greatest degradation.” “First, it should be observed that what torments have specified the baneful consequences of the Islamic Shiite.”

     The founder of Baha’ism even perfects the dictatorial agents of the authoritarian government of Qajar to the religion scholars backed the oppressed nation in the book “the collection of tablets” (page, 360) in Abul fazl Golpaygani’s one. He claims in an statement praising the cruel agents: “A governmental agent is better and more affectionate than corps of those who are wearing turbans because an agent is serving nights and days for people’s relaxation; but those corps are busy exciting seditions, killing, cursing and plundering and we spongers!”

     In the book “Qarn Badi’a” which is one of their famous and important books, the infinite number of indecent words have been used. In their site, Baha’is have removed this nook in order for others not to be aware of the depth of their enmity towards the Shiite scholars.

     A part of insulting and cursing by Bab and Baha to the Iranian people

     Hussein Ali Baha was extremely angry with the Iranian Muslim people’s heediessness against him and his claims. He has mentioned this issue revengefully in his works. The Baha’i leaders’ insults against the intelligent and honorable Iranian people has been really extensive and horrible: “Ignorant, bigoted and wild nation, the bigoted, ignorant and tyrant nation, the ignorant and bloodthirsty people who have sunk into vanity and mere deviation.; they have educated in ignorance school. They are wonderfully stone-hearted. They are cruel, hard, bigoted, mean and greedy. They are similar to the wild in Africa who are negligent, ignorant and blind and deaf like the dead.

     The Baha’ism leaders’ insult to the world nations and religions

     In the Baha’i works, the followers of religions have been insulted. At the end of the book “Iqan”, Baha considers the world people as the followers of overflowing who have fell into atheism and oblivion vortex and renounced God”. He believes that God has also forgotten and left them. He answers non-Baha’is in the world as animals and says: “They are deprived of believing in Baha because they are the source of hideous deeds.”

     Abbas Effendi writes in Ahang Badi’a: “Baha’is must pay attention to this fact that they mustn’t raise an uproar, tumult and meaningless word like other religions…”

     Shoqi Effendi continually calls Hussein Ali Baha as “the reviver of rotten bons”. He calls Babism and Baha’ism opponents in the east and west of the world as “the4 low people”.

     Such polite literature and tone(!) can be observed in one of the members of the universal house of justice called Dorothy Baker’s speech who considers non-Baha’is as the most pitiful people in the finishing day of the Baha’is worldwide conference (1332): “… the unique path to achieve the Blessed Beauty’s (Baha) satisfaction is obedience and attracting his satisfaction in this great day”. He calls non-Baha’is as a herd of sheep and writes:

     “Generally speaking, people resemble a herd of sheep that are bleating in group. They are moving and grazing. It will be really sorrowful for a Baha’i person who doesn’t know to be distinguished out of the herd by entering into the greatest and the most advanced and regenerative movement of the humane world (Baha’i) and be achieved to a superior dignity.”

     In this regard, it is interesting to be noted that Mrs. Rouhieh Maxwell has called Islam, Christianity and Judaism as “antique religions”(!) the followers of religions as “cruelty army”

     Insulting the Christians and the church official

     Shoqi Effendi has insulting the Christians too much. In his renowned book, Shoqi has accused the Christian parties and cults jealous ones and said they had been villainous people. Watralsky, Wills, Richardson and Easton tried to prevent Baha’ism progress due to the fear of their position and rank.

     Rouhieh Maxwell, Shoqi Effendi’s wife has also  insulted the Christian clergymen: “The periods of the priest game has finished.” Other phrases such as “a world full of superstitions (Christianity) and sunk in darkness have been attributed to the Christianity.”

     Insulting the Africa and European people

     The Excellency Effendi gave a speech addressing the European people on December, 15, 1912, the lunar month of Moharram 1331 A.H. when he had entered into England from America:

     “Europe is deeply afflicted by materiality and the people are grazing in grasslands like cows. They can’t see anywhere. American has something in which to glory…”

     He also said about Paris:

     “The city in which people are interested is similar to a corpse in which many worms have been created. They are moving up and down excitedly.”

     In one of his lectures in America, he called the black Africans as “cows in the form of human being” and said:

     “for instance, what’s the difference between the African black men and the American ones, they are cows in human’s faces and they…”

     He also called the residents of African countries and the American Indians as ignorant elements who are worse and more savage than animals and aren’t wise, polite and civilized and are educated by the European people.

     2. violence, a means to expand the Babism cult which was later called Baha’ism

     In this part, one of the reaction dimansions of Baha’is with their vain beliefs against their opponents is restated out of the statements of this cult’s leaders. In this part, violence as a means of Baha’is to eradicate their opponents will be investigated. This behavior has started since the presence of Bab and continued so far. On the other hand, when Tahereh Qorratul Ein started this behavior by ordering the third martyr (Muhammad Taqi Baraqani) to be killed in Qazvin city till the time when the punishment committee was established by the Babis and at the time of occurring the Islamic revolution of Iran and the Baha’i officers feuded the Muslim people of Iran more and tortured and confronted people as SAVAK forces, violence was used as a usual means for Baha’is to suppress their opponents.

     After the vain claim for prophethoot, Imamate and divinity by Seyyed Ali Muahammad Shirazi entitled Bab, the followers of this cult first killed everybody quipping their beliefs. They were coming out of their house in the form of beggers approaching people and killing those who were reprehending their religion.

     Of course, all those events have been deviated in the Baha’i book. However, these murders have been mentioned in the history by the western historians and orientalists. They even boats several earlier followers such as Mulla Hussein Boshrouyee who was so capable and powerful who could attack and kill several people at the same time. In the Baha’i books such as Nabil’s history, a was created by Babis against people has been mentioned.

     Baha’is extensively attacked the government troops in Three distinctive areas of Iran (Zanjan, Mazandaran and Tabriz) and each Baha’i attacked thousands of people and could kill the sinless people and governmental soldiers, according to Baha’is themselves. They believe that each Baha’i person who is killed, S/he will come back the world again after forty days.

     After Seyyed Ali Muhammad Bab’s execution, several Babis attacked Naseruddin Shah to assassinate him. This unsuccessful assassination caused lots of them to be killed by the government and several Babis escaped to Baqdad where belonged to the Ottoman territory; such as, Mirza Yahya (known as Sobhi Azal); that is; Bab’s real successor and his brother was Hussein Ali Baha.

     In Babism movement, the followers were too barbarous and ruthless that they were doing all kinds of savage actions to save a Babi person who got into difficulty. Nabil history has mentioned some of these cases. It is mentioned in the tale 259, Nabil history that Mulla Abdullah Shirazi ruthlessly killed one of Tahereh’s husband’s relatives in Qazvin ordered by Tahereh while he was praying. He confesses after being captured; but he managed to escape. He stated: “A group of Babis walked in Mashhad city alleys and markets and shouted o’Imam Zaman (P.H.). they shouted so loudly that everybody can hear it across the city. They approached the governmental agents shouting. The agents had policed a famous Baha’i called Hassan and were turning him round in alley and maket. The Babis killed all governmental agents, saved Hassan and took him in the presence of Mulla Hussein.

     Mentioning this behavior in his book, page 270, Nabil Zarandi writes sympathizing those who weren’t Babis but were killed.

     “Nobody could prevent those mischievous and bloodthirsty people. Nobody asked them why they were allowed to do those cruel actions. Hajj Mirza Aqasi was surprised, got furious about the event and said angrily: I don’t know where we can find a verse from the holy Quran or the holy prophet’s traditions to the mentioned that a group of people must be killed to revenge a person…”

     In order to make a prisoner free, Babis attacked the agents in the way and killed all of them. Like the Baha’is of today, Nabil has worn the so-called peaceful mask and asks such questions. He calls them the brave human beings. He doesn’t find fault with them. It appears that Babis weren’t spiritually educated but they have merely possessed the revolutionary, rebellious teachings and wanted to terrorize.

     According to Bab’s order, 300 Babis went to Khorasan carrying black flags and riding on horses carrying swords to fulfill one the holy prophet’s (P.H.) traditions. They decapitated everybody who didn’t believe in Bab.

     These savage people roared and frightened people. They were armed, shouted and killed the governmental agents. When Abdul Baha observed that the issue has been asked and is contrary to the message of peace and friendship and establishing justice and removing tyranny says in the book “Sayyah article”: “Babis took some measures to defend.” When 300 people riding on horses and carrying flags and sword enter into a city, how is it possible to be accepted that they were going to defend and not to attack? Additionally, there wasn’t any attack to be defended. Thus, they had merely gotten together to attack not to defend. Nabil and Abdul Baha’s writings have been mentioned and narrated due to the following aims: First, to reveal the contradictions between Nabil and Abdul Baha’s writings; second, to prove Babis savagery, ruthlessness, murder and plunder.

     Nabil writes in his book, page 339:

     “And (Mulla Hussein) ordered for Sheikh’s tomb to be built like a solidified fort for defending. He started as ordered. Several rides surrounded Sheikh’s tomb at dusk and shouted they were from Qadika. They had come to revenge Khosrow… The disciples defended forced by the circumstances… and attacked those bloodthirsty people. The enemies escaped… and immediately all of them disappeared. The disciples’ headman was Mirza Muhhamad Taqi Joveini, Khosrow’s murderer. The disciples chased the attackers for the fear of attacking again… .”

     Nabil continues:

     As they were chasing the runaways, they arrived at a village. They thought it was Qadlika one. The villagers escaped when they saw the disciples. Meantime, Nazar Khan’s mother who was the village owner was killed accidently. Women screamed and cried: Why do you kill us? We aren’t collaborating with Qadika people.

     These hints aren’t needed to be explained.

     The rest of Nabil’s words: “When Mirza Muhammad Taqi heard these words and found out that it wasn’t Qadika village, he ordered for murders to be given up Nazar Khan had been hidden in his house. He came out as soon as be became aware of the issues; although he was sad about his mother’s death… Nazar Khan and Mirza Muhammad Taqi arrive Sheikh’s tomb at down…” (page 341, Nabil’s history)

     Mulla Hussein asked him to come back his house and to provide and send food supplies as he could.

     This is another example of Babis viewpoint and ruthless deeds; that is, they kill the mother and ask her son to provide food supplies and then they pretend that he himself has been attracted. It is obvious that a person whose mother has been killed never help his/her mother’s murderers.

     The Excellency Bab states: “It is necessary for all the faithful to help the Excellency Qoddous [Muhammad Ali Barforoush] in Mazandaran. Because his disciples and he have been surrounded by the pitiless and relentless enemies… .”

     It is a defense???
