The strangest word in my century

Written by: EliaAfshar

Bahaismiran: Avicenna, the greatest scientist of the history says: “Human being lives socially and is unable to enact the rules and regulations which can settle his/her life based on justice and help him/her achieve merited prosperity; so God directs human beings according to His wisdom.”

“Avicenna”

One of the issues that has made some people\'s minds busy these days is justice [:equality], among men and women and although regulating women\'s rights has become more in the community; but there is still injustice. But the cultural communities and the divine religions are trying to make these differences less.

In Islam religion, the holy Imams have reminded of respect to women\'s character. As the holy prophet Muhammad (P.H.) states: \"The Almighty God is kinder to women than men and no men makes his insider happy unless the Almighty God makes him happy.\" In the day of judgment or he also states: \"Recommend each other to behave nicely with women.\"

Islam religion has advised so in order for justice to be established; but Baha\'ism creed has posed a new issue different from justice; that is, the equality between males and females…

Baha’is claim that human beings are brothers and sisters and state the unity among human beings as the greatest and the most preferential one in their teachings and they claim they regulate this equality among all creatures. As narrated on page 47 of the book \"A Glance at Baha\'i Religion\" :\"It\'s impossible for the prosperity of human world to be completed except for the perfect equality among men and women.\" Or the Excellency Abdul Baha says: \"All the creatures are male and female and there isn’t any difference among them.\"

But how is it possible for a creed to shout the slogan of the equality of man and woman in the 12 teachings; but it is unable to exercise equality and even justice in its society? It is so surprising for the regulations and laws of this creed to neglect man and woman\'s rights in its supreme legislation board, bait-al-Adl.

It is said in the book \"Treasury of the domains and commandments of Baha\'is\": \"The members of the greatest Bait-al-Adl [:the House of Justice] must be men and woman has no place in Baha\'i heads association.\"

Why don’t they regulate justice even among themselves while they are speaking and claiming about the perfect equality among men and women? What is this creed that displays its frail way through injustice?

God states in the holy Quran: \"O\' you who believe, why do you say what you do not do?\" (As-ssaf/2)

يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا لِمَ تَقُولُونَ مَا لَا تَفْعَلُونَ ﴿٢﴾
