In a part of the message on the occasion of the birthday anniversary of Ali Muhammad Shirazi, the Baha’ism leadership foundation claimed for the expansion of ignorance, bigotry sedition and discrimination in Iran before the emergence of Ali Muhammad Bab’s claim and mentioned several illusive achievements of the Babism creed. In some parts of the message, Ali Muhammad Bab has been introduced as the factor for achieving humane world to the great criterion of behavior and deed and his spiritual powers have been introduced as the factor for expanding sciences. Also, Bab and Baha’s teachings have been defined as the herald for campaign against the hegemonic systems of governments.[1]

The answer to the claims:

1)   As you know, the Baha’ism organization has tried to display a black image from the community before Ali Muhammad Bab’s claiming for being Mahdi and prophet; thus, it introduces the emergance of Bab’s claim as a saving light. However, it is necessary to be known that not only Ali Muhammad Bab didn’t fight with ignorance; but also he has expanded ignorance and bigotary by his made teachings because Ali Muhammad Bab has made meaningless phrases and introduced them to his disciples as new and divine sendings by deviating and separating and merging the Quranic verses.[2] Of course, Ali Muhammad Bab has stepped towards the Baha’ism organization aims by forbidding the study of each book but not the Babi ones[3] and commanding to make all divine and scientific works fire[4].

2)   Ali Muhammad Bab culminated savagery by issuing cruel orders. How is it possible for Ali Muhammad Bab to be the agent for the humane world to gain great behavior and deed criterion? As he has ordered for all non-Babis properties to be detained[5] and for non-Babis to be killed[6]:

" مَن یطلع علی البیان بِمَلَکٍ فَانَّه مظهر قهر الله لن تذر فوق الارض اذا استطاع احداً غیر البابیین"

Consequently; contrary to the claim by the Baha’i organization, not only Ali Muhammad Bab didn’t campaign against the hegemonic systems of government; but also he was going to create a cruel and dictatorial one.
