Mr. Seyyed Kazem Mousawi, the researcher and expert of cults particularly the organizational cult of Bahaism is investigating the reasons for forming this cult and its opposition against Islam in the following interview:
– What’s the reason for the emergence of cults particularly Bahaism after renaissance period of time in Iran?
– When the west studied the eastern communities, it figured out that the element of religion is the most important factor in integrity of the Islamic communities in the Middle East region. Thus, it tried hard to destroy this integrity to dominate on the region.
In this course, Iran wasn’t just important for the west, but it hoped to gain the numerous wealth of India and the nearby countries. In fact, they wanted to make Iran as their base in the region.
One of the necessities of colonialism is humiliation and weakness of the colony. In Islamic communities, people weren’t willing to surrender to any humiliation or weakness backed by religious teachings. So, it was necessary to dissect the Islamic communities.
Consequently, it tried hard to uproot religion out of community. For this reason, it made various cults; so that, we can observe various cults during the previous centuries.
One of these cults was Babism and Bahaism. Before Ali Muhammad Shirazi claimed for being the gate, a group of Jewish people called “new Muslims” turned against Judaism apparently and turned to Islam in order to create doubt in the Islamic communities.
It is interesting to be noted that exactly five years later when Ali Muhammad claimed for being the gate of Imam of the Time (P.H.), all of them became Babi and it shows the depth of cult making movement.
When Hussein Ali Nouri, the founder of Bahaism was afraid of being punished, he sought asylum to Russian embassy or Abbas Effendi received the “Sir Medal” due to his spying for the British princess. Shoghi Effendi, the third leader of Bahaism
assigned all jobs related to Bahaism leadership to his American wife, Rouhiceh Maxwell. All of these matters indicate the origin of the cult and its supporters.
-How was the main aim of this cult; that is, confronting against Islam followed up?
– Babism and Bahaism were basically formed to confront against Islam and omit it. In earlier years of its establishment, Babism committed many violence, insults and crimes. They created riots in some parts of Iran and murdered innocent people of Iran. For example; in Mazandaran riot, some villages in which Muslims were residing were usurped and people were killed just with this excuse that they were infidel.
Even; in the book “Bayan”, Ali Muhammad Shirazi is considered the Babi’s course. Concerning Babis government, it is written that non-Babis must be murdered after gaining power because they are infidel. Mecca and Medina and the tombs of the holy Imams (peace be upon them) must be destroyed. These are indicating the peak of fighting against Islam by this movement.
– Why must just the tombs of the holy Imams, Mecca and Medina be destroyed not synagogues and churches?
– In fact, such order has issued by Colonialism to vanish the holy Imam’s kindness out of Muslims’ hearts and undoubtedly a weak-hearted person like Bab was just a means to perform this order.
After Babism rough policies failed, Bahaism was emerged and started insulting Islam. Then, Shoghi Effendi repeatedly pointed out the issue of killing and mutilation. It indicates that violence and murder were first paid attention by colonialism.
– What is the aim of colonialism to confront against Islam and attack the pure rudiments of it?
– Because the west is not able to fight against Islam directly. It has to create and support some groups to do that.
Their aim is to vanish Islam completely because religion is the factor which makes integrity.
Allah is the greatest refuge and the prophets and the holy Imams (peace be upon them) are too. For this reason, colonialism fails to achieve its goals. So, it tries to vanish them.
– What are the most important axes of Bahaism attack to the theoretical and theological rudiments of Islam?
– The main movement of Bahaism is making doubt in divine commandments by Bahaism in the Islamic societies and Iran.
Creating doubt is concentrated on two issues by Bahaism: 1) Confronting against the divine miracle of the holy Quran to prove that the holy Quran is not the heavenly divine book and cannot answer the modern issues. 2) Confronting against Imamate movement particularly Ashoora event. Observing the consequences of this epic, they attacked and tried to create deviations in it to deviate the mourning in the tenth of the lunar month of Moharram such as slashing, unconventional chaining or walking on glass and razors.
– What are the current activities of Bahaism to deviate the theological rudiments?
– The way stepped on by Bahaism today ordered by colonialism is creating doubt. For instance, they are speaking about the equality between men and women and consider the Islamic commandments as barrier to fulfill it or punishment commandment such as stoning and cutting hand.
They are using these tricks to gather some unaware and weak faith people around themselves.
– What is the role of Bahaism in the current crises of the world of Islam?
– Bahaism cannot influence on the emergence of these crises by itself and it is applied as vicarious enemy to fulfill the arrogance aims which have been dictated to it.
Arrogance tries hard to destroy the resistance of Islam world and Bahaism is the extra of arrogance. Basically, Bahaism is the puppet in colonialism’s hand.
– Why is the Zionistic regime supporting the Bahaism cult?
-The Zionism considers Islam and Muslims as its greatest enemy. As pointed out, the Middle East is really sensitive from geography and strategic position point of view; because The Zionists are claiming for dominance on the world and according to them the Jewish must be gathered in Palestine region and continue their lives. Hence, they massacred Palestinian people and occupied this place forcefully.
To stabilize their position, they tried to destroy the most important barrier that is Islam. Bahaism took over this responsibility.
So, there is a bond between Zionism and Bahaism to such an extent that the main centers of directing and managing Bahaism cult is located in Haifa and Acre in the occupied Palestine.
– On which axes has the approach of fighting against Islam by Bahaism been concentrated after the victory of the Islamic Revolution?
– The victory of the Islamic Revolution is the greatest failure of colonialism. Nowadays, the trace of Bahaism can be observed in various satellite networks to create doubt and mental or soft war overtly.
They have seriously entered into the cyberspace and social media to attack Islam and the religious thoughts.
-Thank you.
