Bahaismiran:

     One of the cases of which Baha’is believe to be deprived is their employment in the governmental offices and foundations.[1] We are going to investigate this issue that; Is there any law concerned with preventing Baha’is from being employed in the governmental centers. If there is so, it won’t be agreeable with the Baha’i teachings.

     Bahaismiran:

One of the characteristics of all divine proof and prophets is speaking with the language of the tribe in which he has sent on a mission because the Almighty God considers speaking with the language of the tribe as one of the characteristics of the divine prophets:

" وَ مَا اَرْسَلْنا مِنْ رَسُولٍ الّا بِلسان قَومِهِ" (ابراهیم/4)

Bahaismiran: In Paris and Brussels terrorists indiscriminately killed innocent people in the name of Islam. Their barbaric actions heap discredit upon an entire world religion. The terrorists invoke Islam and justify their killing by making reference to the Quran. This is devastating for the peaceful majority of 98 percent of the world's 1.6 billion Muslims, because it has brought their religion under the general suspicion of having a violence problem.

Critics of Islam and broad sections of the western public attest to what they say is Islam's fundamentally belligerent character. In doing so, they refer – among other things – to passages of the Quran such as suras 2:191 and 4:89, which call on the faithful to kill infidels.

But things are not quite that simple. Theologians regard it as indisputable that in its fundamental doctrine, Islam does not glorify or legitimise violence any more than the Bible.

Appropriate handling of historic texts

"The Quran is not unique in containing statements that legitimise violence," says Thomas Volk, a scholar of Islam at the Konrad Adenauer Foundation. "Both Judaism and Christianity also feature such passages." The scriptures of all three monotheistic religions contain sections that perturb modern readers because they either glorify violence, include claims of superiority over the followers of other faiths, or are blatantly misogynistic. For Thomas Volk, what matters is how the texts are treated.

Reference to the problematic passages in the Quran alone also yields no explanation as to why young men in a frenzy of violence – regardless of whether in Syria, Iraq or Brussels – claim they are acting in the name of Islam. After all, the very verses that legitimise violence, which have been in the Quran or the Sunna for 1,400 years, have not led to Daesh-style terrorism in the past. So why is it happening now?

Bekim Agai, Professor of the Culture and Society of Islam at the Goethe University in Frankfurt, stresses that the Quran arose under completely different historical conditions. At that time "war, not peace was the norm between tribes, peoples and empires," he says. Religion had penetrated all areas of life, meaning that "at the time, state, society, war and peace had to be justified in religious terms."

Instructions for both war and peace

The Quran gives instructions for both war and peace. And it was up to the scholars to interpret the instructions for a particular situation. It was however clear at the time that decisions concerning legitimate and illegitimate violence were taken by the state and not by individual Muslims. "From the outset, Muslims had a very negative experience of individuals taking decisions on violence," says Bekim Agai.

There is a long tradition of debate over how the frequently contradictory statements in the Quran on peacefulness and violence should be understood, a discourse that fills entire libraries. "The Islamic tradition began very early to differentiate between the historic circumstances of the texts and the societal present," says Bekim Agai. The aim was "to give the texts a meaning in the here and now, to distinguish between legitimate and illegitimate violence. Arbitrary quotes without consideration of the context in which they arose are alien to this tradition."

In this way, contradictory statements were balanced out over the centuries, meaning that for the most part they were not misunderstood as authorising random, violent action.

Today, the political and cultural prerequisites are completely different. In our modern age, characterised by globalisation, problematic text passages are being torn from their context by extremists. The embedding in a tradition of Islamic scholarship has been largely lost in the Arab world. Terrorists have been entirely decoupled from this process. Most of them are religious illiterates: their killing sprees do not result from years spent studying the Quran.

Archaically staged violence

They stage their violence as archaic, but the phenomenon of Islamist terrorism is a modern one. According to the Frankfurt scholar of Islam, when "self-proclaimed and self-authorised terrorists" invoke the Quran, this is "a way of self-appropriating texts that have otherwise been under the guardianship of scholars and states."

And then there is also the politicisation of religion, which has taken place under the weight of huge tensions across the Arab world from Syria to Egypt, Yemen through to Morocco. The establishment of Sunni scholars has nothing substantial to counter this.

The high-ranking representatives of Sunni Islam, such as those at the Al-Azhar in Cairo, may distance themselves from terror, but they have neither the moral power nor sufficient expertise for a serious analysis of the subject of politicised Islam. Morally speaking they have disqualified themselves because they have kept silent over the failings of the political class in their countries. Theologically "the scholars of Sunni Islam do not draw sufficiently clear distinctions between their religion and its abuse by extremists," says Thomas Volk. "Only a critical handling of their own scriptural tradition could seriously alter this situation. But anyone who dares to do this is rapidly branded a heretic." Volk regards this as a huge problem.

After all it is not enough to blank problematic text passages out of one's self-perception – as do most of those Muslims for whom faith represents a guide on how to lead their lives in a peaceful and constructive manner. "Muslims should approach their holy scriptures with a critical eye," says the scholar of Islam from the Adenauer Foundation. "The purportedly unquestionable passages also require interpretation."

But the intellectual freedom needed for such work is currently lacking in the Arab world. Even within the European diaspora "an historic-cultural reading of the Quran is not yet self-evident," says Volk. Only by grappling theologically with the problematic passages in the Quran will it be possible to consistently marginalise all readings that culminate in a radical Islam.

Violence, the means of Baha’ism

Baha’is claim for affection, friendship and general peace among various people and religions; while the investigation and research in Baha’is behaviors show that it is just a claim and they have committed every sort of crime to achieve their goals. They have also committed the most severe and hostile behaviors against their opponents; to such an extenr that they couldn’t stand even an old woman’s oppositions and killed her violently. Of course, all problems and events have been deviated; but the existing history which is written by the eastern historians and scholars has pointed out and mentiond these murderes.

Bahaismiran: One of the proselytizing issues of the deviant cult od Baha’ism is the statistics by the center of census of Iran in 1385, the total number of population in Iran was 70495782 out of which 70097741 people were Muslims, 19823 the Zoroastrians, 109415 the Christians, 9252 the Jewish, other religion: 54234 and 205317 were expressed. The statistics related to 1390 are as follows:

The Muslims: 74682842

The Christians: 117704

The Jewish: 8756

The Zoroastrian: 25271

Other: 49101

Unexpressed: 265995

Because of the lack of the formal statistics by the Baha’is, the exact number isn’t existed. The Baha’i heads want to exaggerate about the number of Baha’is in the country.

According to the results of the public census, the number of Baha’is in 1375 has been less than 0.25 percent out of the total number of population. This census increased in 1385; that is, 0.37 percent. This census isn’t correspondent with the Baha’i one.

Based on the comparison done on the published census by the Iranian center for census, during the years prior 1375, less than 40,000 Baha’is were living in Iran; but the universal house of justice (the center for the Baha’i organization located at Israel) has announced this statistics as 300,000 people. It can be said that the number of Baha’is in Iran in the years 1375 and 1385 being estimated as nearly 25 to 40 thousand people if the Baha’i shares out of the column of unexpressed is 15 percent. (refer to the website of the Iranian census center)

A website has written about the population of the deviant cult of Baha’ism:

According to the Baha’i texts, Abdul Baha pretended to be Baha’i in Palestine. He was participating in Friday prayer and pretended to be bound with the Islamic commandments in order to live confortably…

The experts have emphasized that the Baha’i organization has continually insisted on exaggeration during the previous decades.

In order to achieve this aim, the Baha’is are ordered by the organization to write the word Baha’i or other in the religion column.

Anyway, it can be observed that their census isn’t right at all in the years 1375 and 1385.

According to the Iranian census center, the other and unexpressed columns in 1375 consisted of 147295 people out of 60055488 total population of Iran (That is 0.25 percent comparing 99.56 percent of Muslims) and in 1385 consisted of 263199 people out of 70472846 total population of Iran (That is 0.37 percent comparing 99.43 percent of Muslims)!

Meanwhile, this census consists of those who haven’t desired to express their religions. It can be estimated that the total number of Baha’is during the years 1375 and 1385 is has been nearly 25 to 40 thousand while the universal house of justice claimed the number is 300,000 ones.

It can be also said that some Baha’is have pretended to be Muslims due to their benefits like Abdul Baha who pretended to be Muslim when he was in Palestine and participated in Muslim Friday prayer in order live confortably.
