GROWTH OF ORTHODOX BAHA’I COMMUNITY IN INDIA - PART-1


The Baha’i Faith started in Iran by Husain Ali Nuri, titled as Baha’u’llah. He was born in Tehran on 12th November 1817. He was the prophet of the Baha’i Religion. 
His intimate proclamation took place at the “Black Pit” (Siyahchal) of Tehran in 1853 when he was 36. His open proclamation occurred in Baghdad in the Najib Pasha garden later titled Ridvan Garden, at 3 in the afternoon of 21st April 1863. 
He proclaimed his mission to the world by sending out tablets from Adrianpole to the Rulers of States, Kings, Emperors, Presidents and Religious Leaders during the year 1867 to 1873. The duration of his prophethood was 39 years during which he was exiled from Tehran to Baghdad (11 years), Constantinople (4 months), Adrianpole (5 years) and at last to the prison city of Acre in Palestine (25 years). 
Over a hundred volumes were revealed from his pen, among which we can name Kitab-i-Aqdas (The Most Holy Book), The Hidden Words, Epistle to the Son of the Wolf, The tablets to the leaders of the world, Kitab-i-Iqan (The Book of Certitude, The Seven Valleys and The Four Valleys, many Tablets addressed to various believers, many prayers etc.

    Dear Rajendra,

    I have received the "Flagrant Violation And Subtle Apostasy Exposed" written by Mr. Nosratullah Bahremand.

    From the text I came to know that this is a critique on the article "Some thought on the ministry of the Universal House of Justice" written by Dr. Ali Nakhjawani, a former member of UHJ.

    I would like to ask you whether Mr. Nosratullah has written it in Persian language? if he wrote in Persian uploaded in any site, please write me through this blog. I will refer the site.

    I just want to point out to anonymous that Mr. Nosratullah Bahremand has a Persian blog that can be accessed under "Other BAHA'I LINKS" to the left on this page. It is the one on top "Nosrat's Persian Blog". I don't know if he has written this particular article in Persian, but you can contact him on his blog and ask for it. Barbara

    Dear enquirer,

    "Flagrant Violation And Subtle Apostasy Exposed" Hasn't translated in to Persian, but you may find another article in Persian with the similar theme from Mr. Nosratullah Bahremand in response to a letter written by the bogus UHJ at:
