“In connection with your question regarding the case of Mr. Mrs. … and their daughter, the Guardian considers that your Assembly did quite right to deprive all three of their voting rights. Their conduct in carrying out a Moslem marriage in the circumstances set forth by you in your letter, and contrary to Baha’i law, are most reprehensible, to say the least, and if such actions are not strongly censured by the Baha’is, other friends may be encouraged in moments of weakness, to err.”
(From a letter written on behalf of the Guardian to the National Spiritual Assembly of India, Pakistan and Burma, March 10, 1951)
Dear Muslims, we love you and we recognize your Holy Prophet and your Holy Book as such but as soon as you enter in the Baha’i Faith, if you try to celebrate a marriage in the Islamic tradition we will cast out your entire family with much Baha’i love.
