Justifying his claim for being God and his divinity, the forged prophet of Baha’ism has considered his claims right because he is the source of divine names and features: “If it is heard by the society concerning the statement “Surely I am God”, it will be right and there is no doubt. As it was continually obvious for him to expose God’s names and features on the earth.[1]”
However, to answer the Excellency Baha’s claim it should be said: can the following features and ranks considered by the Excellency Baha for himself be attributed to the Almighty God?! The features and ranks are as follows: 1) being imprisoned and not being able to save himself[2], 2) being born and claiming for not being born[3], 3) witticism[4], 4) the creator of various gods[5]. How is it possible for God’s characteristics such as science to be emerged in the forged prophet of Baha’is; while he has needed to study other people’s books to be educated?[6]
Yes, all people of this tribe have claimed for divinity. It isn’t unlikely for them to justify their claims in a contradictory manner. The claims which are confessed by Abdul Baha: “He has claimed for divinity very much. The Excellency Holy has written a book interpreting the word “Samad” [صمد]. From the beginning to the end, it is about surely I am God. Additionally the Excellency Tahereh expressed I am God in Badasht loudly as some disciple did.[7]”
