(Documented)

\" There isn\'t any country better than Iran for trading and

gaining interest for American nation ; because , Iran\'s

richness is hidden under the ground . I hope American nation cause

for this treasure to be disclosed.\"

\'\'Mirza Hassan Ali Nouri \'\' (born in 1933) entitled Baha Allah

was one of Seyyed Ali Mohammad Bab\'s (born 1235) fans who

called himself as \'\'a person whom God emerges in him \'\'. A person

whom \'\'Seyyed Bab \'\' promised that he will appear .Then he claime

prophecy and founded Baha\'ism sect . After him , \'\' Abass Afandi\"

(Baha Allah\'s elder son ) entitled Abdul Baha and Shoghi Afandi

who are famous for interpreters of Bahai\'s works among Bahai\'s

becam leaders of Bahai\'s respectively.

After Baha Allah\'s death, there were arguments and disagreements

among his offsprings for father\' succession .So that ,all Baha Allah\'s

relatives except for seven people were \'\'Mohammad Ali Afandi\'s\'\'

fans. They didn\'t accept \'\'Abdul Baha\'s \'\' leadership .It is supposed that

this special tendency to Mohammad Ali Afandi by Baha Allah\'s

offsprings and reltives is caused by the role and attempt of

Mohammad Ali Afandi to print and publish his father\'s works.

These contests and involvements for ownership of Baha Allah\'

succession were so severe that the two parties wrote smutty and

obscene words in their writings and accused each other as thieves of

papers and tablets and issued commandments against each other.

Eventually, Abdul Baha became father\'s successor. He was Bahai\'s

leader by 1300. He tried hard to expand and proselytize Baha\'ism ; so

that , he sent many missioners to some countries and parts of the

world including America. Sobhi Mohtadi writes about one of these

missioners:

\'\'Sheik Asad Allah Baboli was entitled \'\' learned \'\' by

Bahai\'s….before Abdulbaha sent him to America he had been in

Heyfa for 2 months. He had been examined there. At last ,they took

his hat off and put him on a turban , they took his short cloth and put

him a loose cape . They head him off with this gesture and face

.Because Abdul Baha thought that this kind of cloth is important in

the view of people and attracts people in western countries… .\'\'

After getting rid of the limitation exerted by Ottoman government in

1328, Abdul Baha was invited by European and American Bahai\'s and

he traveled from Palestine to Egypt and then to Europe and once

again to America. Abdul Baha gave speeches in some coteries of

those countries.

He collected and edited everything that Bahai\'s know as twelve

instructions during his three –year trip .He reconciled Bab and Baha\'s

instructions to everything which was famous and common as

illucidation and modernism in 19^th century.

Most of his speeches and writings which were considered as holy

works by Bahai\'s and Bahai\'s consider them as the interpretation of

Baha Allah\'s tablets and divine facts based on divine verses of the

book \'\' Aghdas \'\' were nothing but the result of Abdul Baha\'s studies ,

experiences ,understandings and familiarities with western works and

thoughts.

Paying attention and emphasizing on Spranto language learning

was one of Abdul Baha\'s attempts and initiatives and one of samples

of these collectings existed in Bahai\'s works and beliefs .the Sprado

language has some fans .Soon afterward , it became clear that this

language wasn\'t practical and was forgotten. Abdul Baha was trying to

assign all of his learning and achievements (compiling of religious

instructions of the \'\'east \'\'and modern and intellectual thoughts of the

\'\'west\'\') to his father (Baha Allah). Thus , in different situations he had

announced that such instructions haven\'t been introduced in human

societies before Baha Allah .All of these are innovations of Bahai

faith. They were sent down through inspiration to his father ( Baha

Allah).

One of significant behaviors of Abdul Baha was his prayer for

governments of rulers of different countries according to political

situations and special deliberations and interests. He wished victory

,eternality ,growth and divine aids for them .For example ,in a tablet

he prays for ottoman government :

\'\'O \' God, O \' God . Because of your occult aids , your compassionate

successes and generosities ,I ask you to make the great ottoman

government prosperous and endure it on the earth and preserve its land

and its center of government . O \' God. preserve and support it. Have
