Since its formation, Baha’ism was recognized as a theological deviation and a deviant cult
The Excellency Ayatollah Sobhani stated: Since its formation, the
Baha’i creed was recognized as a theological cult among Muslims not just among Shias. Ali Muhammad Shirazi‘s claiming for being the promised Mahdi wasn’t accepted. The descriptions of Mahdi have been stated in the traditions, so that it has blocked each false claim.
The message text of Ayatollah Sobhani is as follows:
In the name of Allah, the Compassionate, the Merciful and peace be upon Muhammad and his descendants.
Human history has seen the emergence of false religions and cults alongside with the emergence of divine religion and true prophets and the books of nations and religions are full of the adventure of misleading movements called religion. It is obvious that the recognition of the roots of these religions
inadmissible is suitable and useful for those who are investigating
the truth.
Those who are familiar with the cultural and political history of the current two centuries of Iran a bit are aware of the method of forming the cults which are active nowadays by the title of Baha’ism. The social and religious background of the emergence of this cult and the
and the political events related to it and the tendentious interventions of Colonial governments from the heads and the collection of beliefs and claimants have been criticized in the numerous books and articles of scientists and scholars.
The founder of Baha’ism, Mirasa Hussein Ali Nouri entitled Bahaullah is of the first people who turned to Ali Muhammad Shirazi called Bab. The one who called himself as the gate of the 12th Imam of Shia and then he claimed for the 12th Imam. After Setting several civil wars in Iran, he was arrested by Amir the Great and imprisoned. Meantime, Mirza Hussein Ali provided and gathered an extensive group of Babis in a region called Badasht with the excuse of trying to make Bab free from prison. However, the gathering was speaking about the excommunication of the religion of Islam and a lady from the followers of Bab called Qorratul Ein entered into the gathering unveiling and dressing up and called the addressees: “Today, the shackles of imitations were broken.” This rule-breaking measure caused people of the nearby villages to react. So, Mirza Hussein Ali Nouri was opposed when he returned and was saved hard. Then, the plan for assassinating the king was proposed. One of the accused people of this adventure was Mirza Hussein Ali Nouri and this issue caused him to leave the country. During this adventure, the traces of
the meddling of the Colonial government of Russia and supporting Nouri by it were revealed.
After assassinating Naseruddin Shale, Hussein Ali Noun and his followers were exiled to Bagdad and led the Babis there.
During the years when he resided there secretly claimed for being the one whom God will manifest and called themselves as the promised ones. This issue caused conflicts between his brother and him. Then, he openly announced the claim.
Hussein Ali sent letter to the kings of the world and posed his claims as divinity and bringing the new religion in the form of tablets.
Nouri’s successors finally succeeded to stabilize the Baha’i cult and recruited various people in various regions of the world. First, they called their cult as one of the Islamic ones, but gradually they
called it a new religion. At this time, the Ottoman government was collapsed and the occupying regime of Israel was established in Palestine. The leader of the Baha’is cooperated with them formally confirmed its establishment and prayed for it.
The man-made faith of Baha’ism was revolutionized again when the second leader of Baha’ism called Abbas Effendi Known as Abdul Baha traveled to Europe and America. He introduced the formal teachings of new eras as the teachings of this faith: The teaching
which had borrowed from the rudiments of that time of renaissance in the west.
From the beginning of its establishment, the Baha’i faith was recognized by all Muslims as a theological deviation and a deviant cult. The claiming for being the promised Mahdi by Bab wasn’t accepted based the definite traditions. The descriptions of Mahdi have been stated in the Islamic traditions; so that, each kind of claiming which is false has been blocked. Mirza Hussein Ali Nouri’s claiming for bringing a new religion wasn’t also confirmed. Because all Muslims consider the finality of the holy prophet (P.H.) as definite and proselytizers weren’t successful in proving this claim. Even, most of their proselytizers turned against Baha’ism at last…
