I know a Baha'i scholar here who says he met a grandson of Abdul Baha.
I'm not sure which grandson, but the man made it clear his father
broke the covenant. He broke all ties with his father and stood
steadfast in the cause. Not once did he claim the role of
the Aghsan to the people of Baha.
Best wishes,

I'm having some difficulty understanding this. Who might this grandson have
been?
My understanding is that before Shoghi Effendi passed away, all the aghsan
had, unfortunately, broken the Covenant. No?
Who is this Baha'i scholar? And can you please ask him/her to give

The scholar is Mr Pirooz Fazli living in Hyderabad, India. He told me
that he was well acquainted with Ruhiyyih Khanum and a couple of other
Hands of the Cause. I'll probably be meeting him tomorrow, I'll ask
him for the names.
All the Aghsan did break the covenant.

According to the Will and Testament of `Abdu'l-Baha, a Guardian would have
to be designated as such by his predecesor. This, obviously, can't happen

Does anyone have a sense of what the descendants of Bahaullah actually
believe in terms of religion? There is a clip on Youtube of
Bahaullah's great-granddaughter and she says something about being a
true Bahai. So do they believe that Bahaullah was a Manifestion

Most of Baha'u'llah's descendants who broke the Covenant were
reabsorbed back into Islam. Some even intermarried with the family of
the Mufti of Jerusalem and became

The mother of this dame was Qamar Baha'i, a person who caused much suffering
to Shoghi Effendi. It is very difficult for them to join the Bahá'í Faith
because they worship Muhammad-Ali.

They could not be the Guardian, since the prospective Guardian had to
be nominated
