How can a cult which doesn’t consider the least value for non-Baha’is and assume them as inferior like pebbles[1] [1] and false affection and amiability is one of the deceptive methods of its proselytizing speak about the slander of hypocrisy?!
The second leader of Baha’ism [2], Abdul Baha has advised his followers about hypocrisy: “Expressing kindness and service is useful and accepted and merited for the faithful dignities when they are free from hypocrisy; otherwise if they are mixed with even an aim; they are afflicted by hypocrisy and won’t be accepted in the path of God… Observe the over flowing of God’s mercy sending down the same for the sinful and the obedient. Then you will find out to be the sign of the divine mercy.[2] [3]”
Answer:
- Why did Abdul Baha adultrate himself to be Muslim during his lifetime living in Palestine land and participate at group prayers of Muslims contrary to his beliefs[3] [4]. Not only the Islamic prayer had been abolished in the Baha’i cult; but also the group prayer had been considered as illegitimate[4] [5].
- Abdul Baha says that hypocrisy is indecent even for benevolent intentions. So, why was Abdul Baha attributing the forged and copied teachings to himself contrary to the Baha’ism belief aiming attracting people to the cult?! For instance, how did Abdul Baha introduce Baha’ism as the innovator of the principle of the equality between men and women[5] [6], while he assumed the male gender as superior to female one[6] [7]?! Or deprived women of the majority of father and husband’s heritage?![7] [8]
- Maybe, the following statement by the Baha’ism leader can be considered as the most sincere belief of the Baha’is: “To prove the source of oneness, today if a person calls the opponents as human beings, he/she will be deprived of the divine mercies.[8] [9]
