Bahaismiran:

Concerning shaving head or letting hair be long in men, the Excellency Bahaullah has said in the book Aqdas:

 

"لا تحلقوا رووسّکم قد زینها الله بالشعر و فی ذلک لآیات لمن ینظر الی مقتضیات الطبیعة من لدن مالک البریة انه لهو العزیز الحکیم * لا ینبغی ان یتجاوز عن حد الاذان هذا ما حکم به مولی العالمین"

(کتاب اقدس/ ص 42)

 

“Don’t shave your head hair because God has ornamented you with your hair. In this action, there are signs for those who observe the expediencies of nature by the creature who is powerful and wise.”

He has emphasized:

 

"ان یتجاوز عن حد الاذان"

“Lest, it oversteps your ears.”

 

While, the Excellency Bahaullah possessed long hair and beard.

 

On page 49 of the book “Bahaullah and the new era compiled by E. J. Esselment translated by A. Bashiullahi – H. Rahimi – F. Soleymani, it is stated:

“Edward Brown, the master of Cambridge University has visited the Excellency Bahaullah in Bahji and stated his emotions:

“… I don’t forget his face that I can’t describe… The signs of old age was visible in his deep forehead wrinkles and face; but his long-waisted black hair and beard showed contrary to it.”…

 

It is stated in the Bayan book concerning beard:

 

" الباب الثامن من واحد الثامن فی جواز تبعیض العشر فی الرأس للنبین و اخذ شعر الوجه تقوته..."

“The summary of chapter eight is that you are allowed to let you hair be long and to have beard to be beautiful.”

 

What a contradiction!!!

 

 

Look at these photos: which one has regulated the Excellency Baha’s commandment?!!!
