Although the followers of Baha’ism cult is destroying the Islamic principles to prove their creed to be a religion and the need for sending Baha’ism, but in some cases they had to confess for acting the Islamic teachings and principles for development, security and tranquility of humane community.
To explain the reason for sending down a new religion after Islam, the Baha’ism leaders are claiming for the divine religions including Islam to be related to previous times and for its teachings and commandments not to be suitable and compatible for the current humane community; as we read in some Baha’i statements: “All creatures are under changes. Each young man becomes old and each seedling becomes and old tree and each old thing will be collapsed. The world religions were causes of development in each era, but now they resemble old trees and useless. The existent nations are expecting these trees to burgeon again and it is impossible.[1]”
Of course, if we accept this reasoning of the Baha’is, we must consider Baha’ism as abolished because regarding the rapid changes of sciences and cultures, the teaching of Baha’ism which are related to nearly two centuries can’t answer the current humans’ needs.
Indeed, these Baha’is who assume Islam as old and useless have confessed that the modern development of the west is copying the Islamic civilization, jurisprudent books and the judgments of Muslim scholars; as Abdul Baha has said: “in earlier Islamic eras, all tribes of Europe were acquiring civil knowledge and favors from Islam and the residents of Andalusia. If you pay attention to history books, it will be obvious that most Europe civilization is adopted from Islam. As all Islamic books written by sages, scientists and learned men were gathered gradually in Europe and negotiated and studied carefully in assemblies of sciences and now the Islamic books by the learned scholars of Islam have been destroyed in the Islamic lands but they are existent in European countries to be taught.[2]”
The Baha’ism leader who has considered Islam as expired and related to 1400 year ago has confessed that the modern civilization and the development of the humane community in the fields of good traditions, literature, industry, sciences, discipline, ethics have been derived from Islam[3].
Mentioning several verses of the holy Quran, Abdul Baha has confessed for all political and civil laws to be useful for the humane community and to be derived from the divine religions.[4]
