So, whenever the news of detention or conviction of a Baha\u2019i is being spread across the country, Baha\u2019ism introduces its reason as the person\u2019s belief in Baha\u2019ism!<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">However; contrary to this claim, one of the aspects of the Baha\u2019is conviction in Iran is perpetrating organizational and proselytizing affairs. After the Islamic Revolution and in 1362 S.H., the Baha\u2019ism organization Iran was announced to be illegal in Iran (due to its relationships with the hostile countries and governments and its betrayals against Iran during Pahlavi regime, trying to overthrow in Iran and proselytizing its creed illegally)<a href=\"#_ftn1\" name=\"_ftnref1\">[1]<\/a>, but this organization never quit its illegal measures.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">In its plans, the Baha\u2019ism organization follows expansionism in different kinds. One of the aspects of expansionism of Baha\u2019ism is executing the economic social development plan of this cult. Consequently, the Baha\u2019ism organization focuses on indirect proselytizing and influencing on people of all walks of life instead of direct proselytizing, introducing Baha\u2019ism beliefs and presenting reason for researchers to such an extent that it is spoken in 14<sup>th<\/sup> paragraph of the articles of association of the Baha\u2019ism economic and social development (osed) about the relationship between proselytizing and economic \u2013social development.<a href=\"#_ftn2\" name=\"_ftnref2\">[2]<\/a><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Thus, the central cores of the organization and the Baha\u2019ism proselytizers in Iran never quit making net and emphasizing on maximum and illegal proselytizing. For example, even the Baha\u2019i media confess when proselytizers or the members of the Baha\u2019i organization is being arrested, the proselytizing means such as books, the deviant cult\u2019s booklets and the evidence concerning their relationships with the Zionistic organization of Baha\u2019ism are found.<a href=\"#_ftn3\" name=\"_ftnref3\">[3]<\/a><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">It is interesting to be noted that the Baha\u2019ism organization sacrifices the definite order for obeying the governments for their expansionism in Iran<a href=\"#_ftn4\" name=\"_ftnref4\">[4]<\/a>. Additionally, they are emphasizing on making net, proselytizing and trying for overthrowing or making the Baha\u2019i government.<a href=\"#_ftn5\" name=\"_ftnref5\">[5]<\/a><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Anyway, the members of the illegal organization of Baha\u2019ism and the Baha\u2019i proselytizers who are even trampling their leaders\u2019 order in obeying the government are included to be punished according to the articles 498, 499, 500 and 508 of the Islamic punishment law.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Article 498 of the Islamic penal code of the Islamic Republic of Iran criminalizes the establishment of any groups that aim to \u201cdisrupt national security.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Article 499: Anyone who joins, as a member, any of the groups, societies or branches aforementioned in article 498 shall be sentenced to three months to five years\u2019 imprisonment unless it is proved that he had been unaware of its aims.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Article 500: Anyone who engages in any type of propaganda against the Islamic Republic of Iran or support of opposition groups and associations, shall be sentenced to 3 months to one year of imprisonment.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Article508: Anyone who cooperates by any means with foreign states against the Islamic Republic of Iran if not considered as Mohareb shall be sentenced to one to 10 years\u2019 imprisonment<a href=\"#_ftn6\" name=\"_ftnref6\">[6]<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Yes; when according to the law, the organizational and proselytizing activities of Baha\u2019ism are included to be punished, how is it possible for the conviction of the members of the Baha\u2019ism organization and the Baha\u2019ism proselytizers in Iran be introduced due to belief?!<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><a href=\"#_ftnref1\" name=\"_ftn1\">[\u06f1]<\/a> Refer to Zahed Zahedani, Baha\u2019ism in Iran, Bija: The center for the documents of the Islamic Revolution, 1981 S.H., pp. 307-317<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><a href=\"#_ftnref2\" name=\"_ftn2\">[\u06f2]<\/a> Economic and social development, a glance at the messages of the highest promise and the statements of economic and social development office (OSED) 1983 A.D. to Redhvan 2010 A.D.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><a href=\"#_ftnref3\" name=\"_ftn3\">[\u06f3]<\/a> For more studies refer to the following articles: \u201cThe wave of arresting the members of the Baha\u2019ism organization in Iran\u201d, \u201cconcerning arresting one of the Baha\u2019i proselytizers\u201d, \u201cthe antecedent of proselytizing for the kids\/ making case or strategy of Baha\u2019ism\u201d.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><a href=\"#_ftnref4\" name=\"_ftn4\">[\u06f4]<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/bahaismiran.com\/?p=4127&amp;lang=en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Hussein Ali Nouri<\/a>, the Aqdas (the Introduction of the book), the electronic copy, p. 14.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><a href=\"#_ftnref5\" name=\"_ftn5\">[\u06f5]<\/a> Refer to <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Shoghi_Effendi\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Shoqi effendi<\/a>, the blessed writings addressing the disciples of the east, Germany: The national assembly of publishing the faith works, 1992 A.D., p. 502.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><a href=\"#_ftnref6\" name=\"_ftn6\">[\u06f6]<\/a> Muhammad Dalir Rad, the Iranian Islamic Penal Code, Bija: Medicine college, spring 1395 S.H., p. 97.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When according to the law, the organizational and proselytizing activities of Baha\u2019ism are included to be punished how is it possible for the conviction of the members of the organization and proselytizers of Baha\u2019ism in Iran be introduced due to belief?!
