Bahaismiran:

Mulla Muhammad Ja’far Naraqi was one of the Babis who believed in Sobhi Azal’s succession. He wrote a book called Tazkeratul Ghafelin to reject Hussein Ali Baha’s claim. In this book, he was going to prove that the forged prophet of Baha’ism hasn’t possessed any features of a divine contention and hasn’t resembled the promised one Ali Muhammad Bab, too.

Mulla Muhammad Ja’far Naraqi has in his book “Tazkeratul Ghafelin” tried to remain at Sobhi Azal’s succession. He rejected the forged prophet of Baha’ism Hussein Ali Nouri writing the book called “Tazkeratul Ghafelin”. According to several pages of the book, before this book, the author had written a book to reject the forged prophet of Baha’ism and sent it to various cities to undo the extensive proselytizing of Baha’ism.[1]

In his book, Mulla Muhammad Ja’far Naraqi has tried to prove the legitimacy of Sobhi Azal using the historical similarities of false

claimants against the real divine proofs and Bab’s writings and also to prove the falseness of Hussein Ali Baha’s claims mentioning reasons of Baha’s followers and criticizing it. Consequently; for instance, he says adducing Bab’s works: “The promised one of the Bayan (Ali Muhammad Bab’s book) or the one whom God will manifest must be Seyyed; but Hussein Ali Baha hasn’t been Seyyed in both maternal and paternal sides.[2]

Naraqi has mentioned false claims happened after Ali Muhammad Bab and stated: “(several people) claimed for the position of Hussein when the Excellency Azal was proof such as Hajj Mulla Hashem Kashi, Hussein Milani or claimed for the position of the one who God will manifest such as Abul Bashar and Mirza Asadullah Khouee and Hajj Mirza Mousa Qomi or claimed for both positions such as Seyyed A’ama and Hajj Mulla Hashem and Mirza Hussein Ali (Baha) who first claimed for the resurrection of Hussein and their claimed for the one whom God will manifest… and were merited to be tortured eternally…[3]” Any way, what is the difference among these false claimants who didn’t possess any feature of the one whom God will manifest promised by Bab?!

In this book, Naraqi has entitled Hussein Ali Baha as the atheism and faithlessness point[4], irreligious great liar [5] and etc. He mentions his causeless claim as the main trouble of Baha.

He has narrated from Ali Muhammad that after me, my nation would be divided into 202 cults and just one of them is right.[6] Naraqi claims the right cult is Sobhi Azal’s one because the claimant of the prophethood of Baha’ism hasn’t not only been illiterate[7] but also he has practiced verse making for a long period of time.[8] This claim is also being proved by him to be literate and his semi-verses which are full of errors and contradictions.[9]

Of course, it shouldn’t be forgotten that the most errors by the author of the book “Tazkaratul Qafelin” about Hussein Ali Nouri (Baha) concerning Ali Muhammad Bab and his claim are true; because Bab has offered his verses adopted and he hasn’t been illiterate and there are many errors in his works. Consequently; according to Babis, not only Baha’ism; but Babism are illegitimate.
