Assalam alaykum, I was a Baha'i 4 many many years, and converted to Islam last March Alhamdulilliah! When i met a Muslim who taught me Islam.. Everything I believed while i was Baha'i came from Islam and Muhammad pbuh and everything i didn't believe came from Baha'i.... I came across your website "BahaiAwareness" several months ago. Keep up the excellent work it is a very much needed..
I was once a Shia Muslim who, because I was disillusioned by my faith, embraced the Baha'i religion. May Allah forgive me. Following the finding of your website, I have come to note the errors of my ways and shall be declaring once again my belief in Islam and seeking the forgiveness of my Lord.
Ash-hadu ala ilaha illallah wa ash-hadu anna Muhammadar rasulallah wa ash-hadu anna Aliyyun waliyullah
May Allah reward you for this website. As if it was not for it, I would still be blind as to the 'real' Baha'i faith.
Alhamdolilllah! This site is very useful in understanding the actual belief of bahai faith and it helps the reader to keep away from them.
a really good site
best topic SUBHAN ALLAH (Article: Finality of Prophethood)
I would like to find some teachers or scholars interested in helping me counter and deconstruct Baha'i propaganda in America and the west. If anybody is interested, please write me at: julianwest .net. Anybody who can read Arabic -- the Arabic used by Baha'u'llah in his Kitab-i-Aqdas -- are especially sought after to expose manipulations and distortions of the translation given to the western Baha'is.
This is the best site I have seen deconstructing Baha'i propaganda, which is at this point absurdly mendacious to the point of absurdity. Based on the two preceding Kitab-i-Aqdas translations by Haddad and Elder, it is easy to have the impression that Wilmette-Haifa officialdom has distorted the text of that book in their translation for the sake of protecting their religion's fortunes. I analyze some of it at: www.kitab-i-aqdas.info
I would like to find some Muslims qualified to translate Arabic into English and produce a more honest translation of the Kitab-i-Aqdas. If anybody is interested, please write me at julian@west.net
we are proud of our holy prophet (P.B.U.H)
You present some valid and correct information, but unfortunately every now and again you make fundamental mistakes which indicate that your reading of Baha'i documents is rather superficial. The Universal House of Justice does not interpret the Baha'i teachings and laws. It can clarify issues but not interpret them. There is a subtle and very important difference between interpretaion and clarification. You also sometimes refer to or quote from out of date translations. I suggest you go to the Baha'i electronic library and obtain texts and translations in Arabic, Persian and English from that site. Otherwise your examination of issues related to the Baha'i Faith is commendable.
Hello. My name is XYZ and I recently converted from Christianity to the Bahai Faith, believing its teachings of unity of mankind, gender equality, world government, and the fulfillment of past prophecies. I must confess I did not do any painstaking investigation to accept the message of Baha'u'llah. I suppose that was my big mistake. Now that I have stumbled onto your website, I finally had my questions answered as to the historicity of the Faith, although at first I was reluctant to accept your views seeing that you had a Muslim bias. Yet after seeing the thoroughly comprehensive nature of the website, and on learning through other sources about certain contradictions in the Faith, the most glaring being the Bab's recantation, I could not defend my views any longer after reflecting upon the rigorous coverage of the historicity of the movement your website brings. You know more about the Faith than most Bahais!
Now I sincerely believe that the founders of Babism and the Bahai Faith are but mere impostors, pretending to be God. I thank you for this website and may God bless you for all the work you have done, which has definitely not been in vain and is only concerned with bringing out the truth. I now find myself without any religion, in a sort of limbo, only with a firm belief in the one true God. Rest assured, I won't start my own cult or anything like that.
Once again I give my utmost thanks to you, to Denis MacEoin, to E.G. Browne, and your website for giving me much more depth and insight into the Faith and its deceptiveness, yet before I leave you alone and in peace I have something to say about some of the Bahais I have met. They are the kindest, most loving people I have known, and they dedicate themselves to teaching not the Faith in itself, but lofty ideals and great moral teachings. The Ruhi books have helped me appreciate the value of truthfulness and purity of heart, and I am sure that they are making a positive impact in the lives of many children and youth. My sponsor tells me constantly that the books are not for conversion, but for teaching high moral standards, a view to which I adhere and serve as eyewitness to.
So, Mr. Imran Shaykh, I once again congratulate your efforts in disclosing the truth of the Bahai faith from an historical and academically rigorous standpoint, and I wish only the best to you.
Recently I came across the website bahaiawareness. May Allah (st) reward you for the effort. I would like to suggest that you include some useful links on the same topic in different languages. Here are some in Farsi.
I am most impressed by your research and dedication to accuracy in this site (bahai awareness).
Great site. Very important information indeed. But Baha'is are virtually nowhere criticized on the internet. Even this webpage was too hard to find. Conclusion: 1. Well done, great work. 2. more publicizing efforts please.
