Evidence of Immorality and Moral Failure in the "Haifan Baháʼí Faith"

Moral state of the "Haifan Baháʼí Faith," highlighting several points:

Moral Failure Among Teachers and Leaders: There is a "disproportionately high rate of moral failure among the Baha’i teachers of Ruhi Children Moral Classes," with "almost ALL the most famous Baha’i Teachers hav[ing] been disgraced their moral lives". Furthermore, it is stated that "Every counselor has a divorced life" and "Most of the NSA members are involved in sexual misconduct". These are described as "KEY PEOPLE in the Baha’i Administration".

"Absolute Immorality" in Ruhi Curriculum Context: The sources says that "beyond and behind these ‘Ruhi Curriculum’ there is absolute immorality of Baha’is and Baha’i Teachers". Ruhi Classes are characterized as "place of Fashion Shows," "place of meeting the lovers and the loved ones," and a place where "the Baha’i teacher/facilitator can prey on the young ones" and "sexually disoriented people find their soul mates".

Broader Scandals and Violations: The "Faith in India and abroad is continuously ridden with controversies and scandals," including "numerous elopement episodes, financial frauds, gross violation of Baha’i stipulations (like consuming alcohol and post marital affairs) and legal violations (like duplicate passports)".

Lack of Administrative Action: The Baháʼí Administration is criticized for not taking appropriate action, for example, saying to "overlook" disgraceful behavior. This stands in contrast to Shoghi Effendi's instruction that "immediate action is required by the National Assembly to protect the Faith" and that "compromise and weak measures will obscure the vision of its followers, sap its strength, lower it in the eyes of the public and prevent it from making any progress".

Humiliation of Sincere Baháʼís: The sources describe instances where a "sincere Baha’i" was ex-communicated and subjected to "severe humiliation" for resisting an LSA (Local Spiritual Assembly) interference in personal matters and for daring "to write to UHJ". This led the individual to lose "hopes in the administrative order of the Baha’i Faith".

Immorality and Moral Failure in the Context of Baháʼí Twin Institutions and Succession

The core argument of these sources is that these pervasive issues stem directly from the absence of a legitimate Guardian and the rise of what they term the "illegitimate UHJ" or "bogus UHJ".

The Guardian as Safeguard Against Deviation: The Guardianship is presented as the divinely ordained institution to "insure the continuity of that divinely-appointed authority," "safeguard the unity of its followers," and "maintain the integrity and flexibility of its teachings". It is a "Mighty stronghold" through obedience to which the Cause "shall remain impregnable and safe". Shoghi Effendi is quoted as stating that "divine guidance flows on to us in this world after the Prophet’s ascension, through, first the Master, and then the Guardians". The absence of a living Guardian means that the Faith is no longer "being kept from becoming endangered" and is prone to "deviat[ing] from the truth".

The Mutilated Administrative Order: Shoghi Effendi emphasized that "Divorced from the institution of the Guardianship the World Order of Bahá’u’lláh would be mutilated" and its "integrity... imperiled". The sources elaborate that without the Guardian, the "necessary guidance to define the sphere of the legislative action of its elected representatives [UHJ] would be totally withdrawn".

The Universal House of Justice without a Head: 'Abdu'l-Bahá's Will and Testament ordains that "the guardian of the Cause of God is its sacred head and the distinguished member for life of that body" (the Universal House of Justice). The sources question: "How can a body live without a head?". They argue that the "so called UHJ was spuriously created by the former Hands of the Cause, without authority and in total contradiction to the provisions of the Will and Testament of 'Abdu’l-Bahá".

Non-Adherence to 'Abdu'l-Bahá's Will and Testament: The sources lament that instructions from 'Abdu'l-Bahá's Will and Testament are "not being followed" by the "large body of Bahá'ís" because it is "believed by most that there is no Guardian". This includes the directive for the Hands of the Cause to elect nine persons "in the important services in the work of the Guardian" and the general "obedience, submissiveness and subordination Unto the guardian of the Cause of God". The perceived non-adherence to these fundamental texts is presented as proof that the "large body of Bahá'ís" "must be already deviating" from the true Faith.

Consequences on Huququ'llah: The alleged "wrong doing" of the "illegitimate UHJ" in "demanding and collecting the Right of God (Huququ’llah), without having any authority to do so" is also mentioned in the context of their perceived moral and administrative failings, as this is the "RIGHT OF THE GUARDIAN". The lack of financial transparency from the UHJ regarding these funds is also criticized, leading to accusations of "misappropriation".

In essence,the moral decay and widespread scandals observed in the "Haifan Baháʼí Faith" are a direct consequence of what they view as a fundamental departure from the divinely ordained administrative order established by Baháʼu’lláh and 'Abdu'l-Bahá. This deviation, they contend, primarily stems from the discontinuation of the Guardianship and the subsequent illegitimate rise of the Universal House of Justice, leading to a loss of divine guidance and the integrity that a living Guardian is meant to provide.
