Baha’ism formed for spying

A group of distinguished Iranian officials in separate interviews with IRNA on Wednesday voiced resentment over Baha’ism and said it was formed with the objective of conducting espionage.
Deputy head of Majlis Article 90 Commission, Hojjatoleslam Mohammad-Ebrahim Nekounam, said here Wednesday that Baha’ism was established to infiltrate Iran and create divisions among Muslims and it did its best to achieve that goal.

The MP quoted founder of the Islamic Republic and father of the Islamic Revolution, the late Imam Khomeini as saying both before and after the 1979 Islamic Revolution that Baha’is do not belong to a party, rather they are a group of spies.

He said that a group affiliated to Baha’ism are openly in contact with those hostile to Islam and Islamic system and they should be strongly dealt with.

He added that the group of few have links with Israel and are agents of the usurper Zionist regime acting against the Islamic Republic system.

Meanwhile, a Majlis deputy from Saveh, Hossein Islami, said Baha’ism wants to create divisions among Muslims.

Islami said that weakening Islam has been the long-term goal of enemies of Islam and Baha’ism was established for the same reason.

Also, a former member of the Supreme Council for Cultural Revolution Hojjatoleslam Abbasali Akhtari said support for Baha’ism is in fact support for Israel.

Akhtari said support for Baha’ism is like supporting Israel at the international level and anybody wishing to officially recognize Bahism will commiting treason against Islam.
