     Bahaismiran:

Many years before World War I, the Ottoman had suspected the Baha’is and their social intercourses with the foreign government officials had made them extremely sensitive[1]. However, Abdul Baha’s speech and sermons at that time which were superficially compelling the Baha’is to obey the governments and not to meddle with policy[2] and preventing the Ottoman government not to confront against the Baha’is[3].

     However, at the end of the Ottoman government and after Abdul Baha’s trips to the west and revealing the Baha’is betrayals against the Ottoman by spying for England, the Ottoman rulers were going to confront against the Baha’is vigorously. As we read in Shoqi Effendi’s report concerning the Ottoman government anger of with Baha’is and Abdul Baha himself: “The commander in chief of Turks, Jamal Pasha who was treacherous, blood-thirsty and refractory and the enemy of God’s religious law disagreed endlessly due to spiteful people’s superstitions and instigations and severe suspicion against the divine faith (: Baha’ism) and was determined to destroy God’s word. He explicitly stated when he became free from repelling external enemies, I would crucify the Excellency Abdul Baha in the sight of the public and destroy the blessed Garden[4].

     Nevertheless; meantime, the high-ranking officials of the British Colonial government compiled themselves to support, preserve and save the Baha’s particularly Abdul Baha; as Shoqi Effendi says: “Lord Curzon and other members of the British cabinet became aware of the threatening situation in Heyfa directly. On the other side, Lord Laminton sent urgent report to that country ministry of foreign affairs and attracted the attention of the affair authorities towards Abdul Baha’ character and important position. When the then minister of foreign affairs, Lord Balfour received the report, he issued a telegraph to general Allenby the commander of the British troops in Palestine and emphasized to preserve the Excellency Abdul Baha and his family and friends with all his powers [5].

Consequently, Abdul Baha had provided a safe surrounding for his treacherous and secret activities of Baha’ism by shouting the slogan of the prohibition of meddling with policy.
