The first and most basic teaching of Baha’ism is the independent investigation of truth. The Excellency Abdul Baha has stated: “The first basis of Bahaullah is the independent investigation of truth; that is, the bodies become holy and pure out of the imitations of ancestors.[1]” nevertheless, the Baha’i leaders introduce this teaching as the first basis of Baha’ism; while, they are punishing the independent investigators of truth severely.
As Abdul Hussein Ayati, the authors of the valid books of Baha’ism such as “Kawakebuddoriyeh”, explains the Baha’ism organization’s behavior against the main elements of the cult who have turned against it: “First when I was alone and my proclamation hadn’t been expanded across the world. I was exposed to be killed by them but I was aware and alerted and they couldn’t be successful. Even, the Babis from Abadeh city sent messages to the spiritual assembly of Tehran city: If you aren’t able to kill Awareh, we will send a woman to do that. Again, in the spiritual assembly of Tehran city, Muhammad Kashani had said: “Killing Awareh is an easy task… So, the existence of me, Nikou, Saleh, Shahab, Kasrawi, Rahbar, Sobhi, Yazdi, Yazdani, Rohani and hunders of people who had turned against Baha’ism obviously or hiddenly isn’t the indication of nice interval of Baha’is; but it shows that we are awakened and the Baha’i power has been decreased.[2]”
Yes, how can a cult which is pursuing its opponents who have turned against Baha’ism be the proclaimer of removal of the religious hostilities?!!! How can it claim the following statement:
“Religion must make friendship and the relationship aiming human being. If the religion causes enmity and war, its nonexistence will be better; vise versa, religion must cause friendship, kindness and the relationship among human beings.[3]”
