One of the Baha’i valid historical sources is explaining and narrating the adventure of the meekly martyrdom of the great scholar Muhammad Taqi Baraqani by the hard-hearted Babis as follows:
“Mulla Taqi entered into the mosque alone and got busy praying. There were nobody in the mosque. I followed him silently and approach him and stopped. When he bowed down, I took out a small javelin and inserted into his head strongly. Mulla Taqi shouted dreadfully. I took out my dagger and stopped into his throat strongly and injured his back and sides. I left him in the altar and went to the mosque roof immediately.[1]”
Yes! This doleful story and this bitter event which has been mentioned by the Baha’is in their books is remarkable in two aspects:
1) According to documents and evidence, Qorratul Ein has planned for late the great scholar Baraqani’s murder; although the Baha’is are going to reject this fact. Because based on confession by the Baha’i historical sources, Qorratul Ein urged some people who had come along with her from Iraq to Qazvin to leave the city before the crime commission by Mirza Saleh. She even answered one of them who asked why don’t Sheikh Saleh, Mullah Ibrahim and other come? They have an important task to do. There will be a riot in the city soon and I want you to leave before that time.[2]
2) The Babis had nothing in their report cards but war, assassination, violence and answered the critics by slaughtering. Now, the Baha’is call them the martyrs!!! The Babi and Baha’i criminals were slaughtering their opponents when they gained power like their leaders:
"لَن تذر فوق الارض اذا استَطاعَ احداً بغیر البابین"
“(The Babi ruler) mustn’t let non-Babis to remain on the earth when he gained power.[3]”
Yes, the adventure of the martyrdom of the great scholar martyrdom is just an example of violence done by the Baha’i rebels and predecessors.
