Can you explain the Baha’ is faith? this reader is upset with any form of persecution against minorities, but as per my question – how does this faith differ from the major faiths in world as Islam, Christianity, Buddhism etc. Or is it a jeopardized sub faith?

You can get some basic information on the Baha’i Faith here:

Dear Darell,

All we want is peace.

I applaud the actions and efforts of the Muslim Network for Baha’i Rights. I attend the mosque in Topeka, Kansas. I am delighted to have a mosque in my town. As a child I went to church just down the street from where the mosque is. My father and his family started the church before I was born. I decided I did not believe its doctrines when I was in high school. After high school I found the Baha’i Faith and embraced it. I always considered the Quran to be the Word of God and was delighted to find that Baha’is believed that also. In fact, in order to be Baha’i one has to accept the Quran and Muhammad. Millions of Baha’is around the world who never were Muslim now accept the Quran and Muhammad. What is the problem with that??
The Muslims in Topeka accept me into the Jumah. They come from America, India, Pakistan, Bangaledesh, Eqypt, Afganistan and other places. They are all learning a new way to be Muslim. With an Imam who is an African-American the Jumah is growing in understanding the difference between being Pakistani and being Muslim. One way to be a Muslim in Topeka is to invite the Baha’i to share about the Baha’i Faith. I can’t imagine that happening in many other mosques.
“There should be no compulsion in religion.” That is an ayah that many Muslims seem to ignore. The Muslim Network for Baha’i Rights does not ignore it either. Thank you so very much.

Great blog, subscribed to your rss feed. Thanks.

It is beyond belief that religious leaders of any religion would engage in promoting hatred instead of promoting the true mission of religion: to bring people together, to unite the children of God under one universal tent, and to serve as instruments of love and brotherhood. What these people are doing is assuredly a shameless violation of their duties.

I married into an Iranian Bahai family in 1970. Skip the fact that when I went to Iran they robbed me of all material possessions and everybody else in Iran they could steal from….that is them….not all Bahais, however I must say it is quite exaggerated how much Bahai are persecuted. Bahai is right really an upper class type philsophy and few Bahais are actually the poorest or most stepped on people in the world. One can quite understand that since Bahaullah has proclaimed himself the “mahdi” of Islam, that those who don’t think he is would look at it as a very negative religion. The fact is, both Islam and Bahai are almost the same and neither one has any importance as the TRUTH. All the major religions deserve their suffering because they are all prejudiced, wrong, try to act herefore, they suffer in their ignorance
