The victory of the Islamic Revolution of Iran and forming a democratic system of government based the original teachings of Islam was the greatest hit on the deviant cult of Baha’ism and its internal and external defenders and it could create serious challenges for the Colonial aims of this deviant cult by intellectual and cultural measures in addition to making Muslim community of Iran free
from misleading beliefs and ominous plans of this cult. The followings are the consequences of the Islamic Revolution over the Baha’is positions and conditions inside the country.
۱) The tendencies of a great number of Baha’is towards Islam:
After the victory of the Islamic Revolution, a great number of the Baha’is who were of the poor and unaware of the nature the cult figured out the tricks of the heads of the cult and turned against Baha’ism and turned to dear Islam in group. Some of them ran a movement called the liberal movement of the Iranian Baha’is publishing a periodical called Ahrar in 1358 S.H. and opposed openly against the deviant cult Bahaism. The mentioned movement criticized the Bahaism organization before the revolution and all those people who were spying for aliens when they were possessing sensitive posts![1]
Basically, spying and betrayal were the common features of all Baha’is and this issue is documented in the past and now. Hussein Fardoust announces: “The Baha’is I saw weren’t Iranian although they were from Iran and it was quite sensible and they were intrinsically spies.”[۲]
۲) lack of formally recognition
Before the Islamic Revolution, the Muslim people of Iran considered the Baha’is as a deviant cult against Islam and nationality. This attitude wasn’t changed after the revolution, but spying and ominous plans of this deviant cult against the Muslim nation of Iran strengthened and caused the democratic and Islamic system of government didn’t assume any formal recognition for the deviant cult of Baha’ism.
۳) Losing governmental supports:
After the victory of the Islamic Revolution, this cult lost all of supports and the ways for the cult to dominate on governmental organization failed and blocked and the activities of the deviant cult were prevented. Consequently, the sensitive posts -governmental or non-governmental- which were given to them during Pahlavi regime retaken. They were fired from the cultural, artistic and military centers. The members of the deviant cult of Baha’ism were prevented to be in academic centers and cultural and educational ones.
۴) The Baha’ism organization was hurt
According to documents gained by the American spying nest, the deviant cult of Baha’ism encountered the most severe crisis during its 130 years of existence by falling the ominous Pahlavi regime and many problems were created for it.”
Due to spying for Colonial countries and helping the stabilizing kingdom regime and embezzling Muslims properties and bestowing them to the Zionistic regime, some members of the deviant cult of Baha’ism were captured, imprisoned and hanged. By 1362S.H., the Baha’s were secretly active in their organizational activities. In this year, the public prosecutor announced the organizational activities of Baha’ism as forbidden. In spite of it, the heads of the cult followed their ominous aims.
۵). Escaping the Baha’i elements
After the Islamic Revolution headed by the Excellency Imam Khomeini (P.H.), the heads and the great investors of the cult decided to exit their investments out of the country and escaped from Iran one by one. This escape soared by of the victory of the Islamic Revolution on Bahman 22, 1357 S.H.
Most Baha’is escaped from the counting illegally by paying money to those who were living in the borders of Iran and Turkey and Pakistan asked the UK, the US., France and Canada for refuge.
۶) Changing activities:
After the victory of the Islamic Revolution, the Baha’is continued their activities more secretly and due to their dependence on the enemies of Iran like America, England, and Israel, they were extensively supported by them economically. On the other side, they played the role of spies for the Colonial countries. Now, the members of the deviant cult of Baha’ism are present at economic activities of the country and create crisis in various fields such as exchange, drug and smuggling Israeli goods.
