Bahaismiran:

Contrary to the character sketch of the divine religions in the field of ordering one to do something that’s allowed by religion and dissuading one from doing something that’s forbidden by religion, the Baha’i leaders have opposed this principle and have considered its exercising as merely dons by the administrative foundations. As Ahmad Yazdani writes narrated by the Baha’ism leaders: “the right for opposition, dispute and ordering one to do something that’s allowed by religion and dissuading one from doing something that’s forbidden by religion have been taken away and merely the spiritual assemblies or the universal houses of justice possess the right to govern propel and to be their instructors, advisers and watchful.[1]

However, it is interesting to be noted that the Baha’ism cult has opposed the expansion of ordering one to do something that’s doing something that is forbidden by religion and the followers of the cult have been called upon to proselytize publicly to such an extent that proselytizing is considered as the general duties of all people and is assumed as compulsory by Abdul Baha.[2]
