In the Baha’i leaders’ works, the necessity for the lack of Baha’is intervention in the policy has been continually emphasized: “If a disciple wants to negotiate about the political affairs in his/her house or others’ assemblies, it will be better for him/her to cut his/her relationship with Baha’ism and all should know that he/she will not be bound to the faith.[1]” it is more interesting to be noted that “the extent for being or not being Baha’i is that a person who meddles with the political affairs and says a word out of his/her duty, this proof will be adequate for not to be Baha’i. It won’t need any other reason.[2]”
However, the Baha’ism leaders have defined meddling in policy as the condition for remaining Baha’i while they have changed into symbols for inexpert politicians by meddling with policy and cooperating with the Colonialism and the authoritarian governments[3].
