Gilberto,
I did a search in google.com for "Islam Discussion", clicked on the first link that popped up, IslamOnline.net, and search the discussions area for the word "Bahai". I got a number of hits and one of the posts says:
"Bahai faith is a violation of Islam. It is rejected by
Islam. Bahai is neither Jewish nor Christian. Bahais
have a well-documented history of acting as a
Zionist fifth column throughout the Muslim world. The
pseudo-Islamic sect has its headquarters in the
Israeli port town of Haifa, where its founder, The Bab,
a Russian spy executed in Tabriz (Iran) in 1848, is
alleged to be buried.
Like by the Qadianis in Pakistan, Bahis have been
used by Israel for espionage work in a number of
Muslim countries. During the deposed Reza Shah’s
rule in Iran, they acted as links with the Zionist State,
playing a major role in the exploitation of the
country’s resources. The occupied number of key
positions and dominated the banking services. The
Shah only trusted Bahais to hold top positions in
dreaded Savak, his US/Israeli trained intelligence
network responsible for the death and torture of
thousands of Irani
Muslims.
Bahai organization was banned in Egypt (1960) even
it was banned in Islamic Iran. Many Bahais fleeing
with the Shah from Iran in 1979 chose to remain in
Egypt under the patronage of the late Anwar Sadat
who daughter was married to one of Shah’s sons.
These days, the Bahais are scattered in Israel,
Europe and US, and are actively working for the
destruction of Islamic Iran."
Don't you think cries of "espionage" at the least invite Muslims to harrass Baha'is? I ask you to reply to the author and the discussion board and condemn this post. If you post as a Muslim your message will come across much better than if a Baha'i responds to it. Plus, since its a Muslim discussion groups I am not sure how appropriate it would be for a Baha'i to write there.
Thanks,
Hajir
