Bahaism is one of the claimant movements in the current era which possesses many claims in religion [1] domain including being updated or up to date!! but it is deficient in practice. On the other hand, Bahaism [2] is poor and is going to hide its intrinsic poverty using many claims, controversy and uproar.
To clarify the reality, several examples are given.
When it is spoken about the principles and teachings of religion, Bahaism is speaking about its 12 teachings, but the problem is that these teachings are just several general slogans which can be interpreted and don’t speak about details; for example, the slogan of “the equality between men and women’s rights “which is vague and general.
Bahaism has attributed it to itself using enormous advertisements and considers it as its own innovation, but truth seekers know that there are many cases in Baha’ism in which not only a woman is not equal to a man, but also she is deprived of her rights and the Baha’is are either silent or justify. The empty place of women in the universal house of justice and the succession of Bahaism heads including Abdul Baha are of these cases.
More interestingly, the Baha’i women are not equal to each to each other in many cases; the difference in dowry of an urban woman and a rural one isn’t equal.
When it is spoken about the commandment debates, the generalities are spoken but not the details. For instance, in marriage debate generalities are stated, but they don’t speak about details such as getting married with the intimates, the wife and offspring’s alimonies after divorce and the punishment of robbery, insulting and etc.). For example, it is said: “If a person makes your house fire intentionally, he/she must be burnt down!”[1] [3] How much must he/she be burnt?
Consequently, Bahaism is merely a claimant movement which is superficially saying new and beautiful words; but it is really offering immature slogans which in many cases are retelling the ancestors’ claims just in general because in fact, it can’t say any word civil and penal laws and no law is present to be posed.
Having all of the deficiencies, Bahaism is continually criticizing other’s commandments and teachings. They must be asked: What is your alternative commandment which can be performed?
Of course, maybe this generality hasn’t been without reason, because when they insult others, they themselves will be merited to be insulted. Also, the Bahaism heads have experienced that wherever they have exaggerated, they have made challenges and dilemmas and have said many contradictions. Also, if they enter into the sexual commandments and tell everything, the extent of tendencies towards Bahaism will be decreased.[2] [4]
