     Bahaismiran:

In their commandments and principles, the divine religions must teach dos and doesn’t to their followers. The followers must regulate these dos and don’ts in their behaviors and must advise and mention other followers to regulate them. In Islam, it is called ordering one to do something that is allowed by religion and dissuading one from doing something that is forbidden by religion. However, non-divine religions creeds and cults don’t basically possess such principles and don’t believe in them.

     The leaders of the Baha’ism cult have opposed this principles. As Ahmad Yazdani writes narrating from the Baha’ism leaders: “The right for opposition and ordering one to do something that is allowed by the religion and dissuading one from doing something that is forbidden by religion have been abdicated. Just the spiritual assemblies or the universal houses of justice can rule on the souls and can be their adviser, instructors.[1]

     Nevertheless, it is interesting to be known that the Baha’ism cult has called its followers to proselytize in public; to such an extent that proselytizing is all people’s duty in Baha’ism and Abdul Baha considered it compulsory.[2]

     However, there is another contradiction in Baha’ism. As a Baha’i, when you proselytize, you are saying the Baha’ism’s behavior is right and the Muslim’s one is false. In this case you’re ordering one to do something that’s’ allowed and dissuading one from something that’s forbidden by religion!!!
