Abdul Baha has considered the fulfillment of educating human beings as one of the reasons for the legitimacy of the divine prophets, while contrary to this claim, the self-proclaimed prophet of Baha’ism was even disable to educate his offspring! Consequently; according to Baha’ism basis, the self-proclaimed prophet of the Baha’i cult isn’t legitimate!

Question: What are the reasons for the prophets’ legitimacy according to you?
Baha’i proselytizer: “One of the criterions for the legitimacy of prophets according to Abdul Baha is educating human beings by him. As he has said: If we want to know whether the prophets have been teachers or not, we should investigate the truth independently. If they educate human beings to make them achieve from the lowest rank to the highest one, they will surely be right. Nobody can reject this fact.[1]”
Consequently, if a prophet can’t educate people, he won’t be right! So, the claimant of Baha’ism prophethood who has been unable to educate his offspring and his offspring fought each other over his succession and called each other as roach, worm, bat, crow, fox, wolf, calf and donkey[2] isn’t legitimate.
The Baha’i proselytizer mentions that the prophet of Islam was unable to educate his relatives such as Abu Lahab, too. So; according to you the legitimacy of the holy prophet is under question!
However, the Baha’is and their proselytizers have forgotten that we have mentioned the basis of Abdul Baha and Baha’ism who have said: “If they have educated the souls from the lowest rank to the highest one, they will surely right.[3]”
Consequently, this claim can’t be accepted by Islam to use it to criticize the holy prophet of Islam. Nevertheless; according to Baha’ism basis, in this case the self-proclaimed prophet of Baha’ism isn’t legitimate.
Baha’i proselytizers are claiming that if you consider the statements used by Abdul Baha to address his default brother as cursing and being impolite, so the holy Quran has also considered some people as inferior to animals:
“أُولَئِكَ كَالْأَنْعَامِ بَلْ هُمْ أَضَلُّ أُولَئِكَ هُمُ الْغَافِلُونَ (اعراف/۱۷۹)”
“They are as the cattle nay, but they are worse. These are the neglectful.” [Al-A’raf/179]
Answer:
The Baha’i leaders have applied such statements not only for real people; but also for some racial characters[4], but in the holy Quran, some people are considered to be out of humanity stage due to leaving logic and obstinacy against the right path:
“وَلَقَدْ ذَرَأْنَا لِجَهَنَّمَ كَثِيرًا مِنَ الْجِنِّ وَالْإِنْسِ لَهُمْ قُلُوبٌ لَا يَفْقَهُونَ بِهَا وَلَهُمْ أَعْيُنٌ لَا يُبْصِرُونَ بِهَا وَلَهُمْ آذَانٌ لَا يَسْمَعُونَ بِهَا أُولَئِكَ كَالْأَنْعَامِ بَلْ هُمْ أَضَلُّ أُولَئِكَ هُمُ الْغَافِلُونَ (اعراف/۱۷۹)”
“Already have We urged unto hell many of the jinn and human kind, having hearts wherewith they understand not, and having eyes wherewith they see not, and having ears wherewith they hear not. These are the cattle nay, but they are worse! They are the neglectful.
