Claims of Baha’ullah


Baha’ullah claimed to be God. The following are some of his statements:


“There is no God but Me, the Honored, the Wise.”[1]
“Take what the Ancient Hand gives you.”[2]
“There is no God but Me, the securer, the regulator. Certainly We have sent the prophets and revealed the books.”[3]
“The God of eternity is in the prison.”[4]
“Everything other than Me is created by My command.”[5]
“I am the Greatest Branch (Abdul-Baha) without any partners.”[6]
“We Baha’is are certain of the eternal beauty.”[7]
“Surely I am God. There is no God but me, the Lord of all things. Everything other than Me is My creation, then O My creation you worship Me.”[8]


The Twelve Principles


The Baha’i pride themselves on the Twelve Principles or twelve teachings, which they promulgate. Baha’i speakers focus heavily on these principles considering that these are the best that can be found in any religion. Seven out of the twelve Principles revolve around Unity. They are:


· Unity in the political realm.
· Unity in the worldly matters.
· Unity in freedom.
· Unity in religion.
· Unity in the nation.
· Unity in the tongue.
· Unity in genealogy.


Nevertheless, Baha’i history and doctrine contravene these principles. The Baha’is killed Mohammad Ibrahim by throwing him into the river Tigris for not believing in Baha’ullah’s call.[9] They attempted to assassinate Nasiruddin Shah, the king of Iran. Baha’ullah killed one hundred and thirty people in one night and plundered their belongings.[10] Baha’ullah ill treated his brother Subhe Azal and Abdul-Baha did worse to his brother Mohammad Ali. Ironically, among the Baha’is themselves there are at least two major divisions at loggerheads with each other - the 3rd generation Baha’i and the Orthodox Baha’i. Lastly, the Baha’is have yet to officially announce the alphabet of the new language they have invented for every person in the world.

Intolerant Teachings


There are various intolerant ideas preached by the Baha’is found in the Babi cult before them which have no basis in past religions:


“Babis! God has made war obligatory upon you. Capture cities and people for Babism.”[11]
“Do not let those who do not believe in the Bayan remain on the earth.”[12]
“Snatch the wealth of those who do not believe in the Bayan.”[13]
“Rejecters of Bab! Even if you take a bath 1000 times in a day, you shall remain unclean.”[14]
“Whatever belongings of the non-Babis come into possession of the Babis they become clean.”[15]
Although they seem to preach peace and unity, their history has been marred by violence. Their history and original teachings also contradict their averred concept of world peace and gender equality.

"O friend, the heart is the dwelling of eternal mysteries.."

by faryarm on


    "O friend, the heart is the dwelling of eternal mysteries, make it not the home of fleeting fancies; waste not the treasure of thy precious life in employment with this swiftly passing world. Thou comest from the world of holiness-- bind not thine heart to the earth; thou art a dweller in the court of nearness--choose not the homeland of the dust.

In sum, there is no end to the description of these stages, but because of the wrongs inflicted by the peoples of the earth, this Servant is in no mood to continue:

The tale is still unfinished and I have no heart for it-- 

Then pray forgive me. 

[Jalalu`d-Din Rúmi]

The pen groaneth and the ink sheddeth tears, and the river [Literally "Jayhún," a river inTurkistan.] of the heart moveth in waves of blood. "Nothing can befall us but what God hath destined for us." [Qur'an 9:51.] Peace be upon him who followeth the Right Path!

from: The Seven Valleys of Bahá'u'lláh -- Part II

Peace be upon him who followeth the right path.

by Hebless (not verified) on

"Love abideth not in a heart full of fear".

Such soul is in a constant state of fear and agitation due to the absence of faith and is thus deprived of the spirit of God.

A fearful individual out of fear resorts to harassment, manipulation, terror, deceit, and lies. Disappointed at God and unable to manipulate God or impose on God to make his own vain imaginings come true the deprived soul lashes out with all his puny might.
Futile indeed is the plight of the dying Mordaab of deceit in the face of the intense heat of the sun of truth.
Witness the carnage the tormented soul is bearing.
Alas neither the stench of this decaying climate nor the misery and the torment that it inculcates in the fearful, seem sufficient to break free the oblivious soul from the numbness and the shackles of Mowhoomaat.

"Peace be upon him who followeth the right path".

Left the Bahai faith

by Rostam. (not verified) on

I had an American Bahai friend in college who was very devout and enthused for having found the Bahai faith.
When I saw him again some years later he had left the religion and was very upset for having been "gullible" -as he put it- to have believed what he'd been told and read.

Dear Seagull

by Anonym (not verified) on

Thank you for the quote from Hazrate Baha. I didn't know that before and I am glad to hear it. A similar quotation is also indicated in different words by Hazrate Mohammand and I am sure Christ too. They do very much point to the amazing signs I was talking about.

Clearly, revelations are only for the prophets and not regular people.

I do hold high regards for the words of Abdulbaha.

Regards,

Salaam va aliykom

Dear Anonym you asked;

by Seagull (not verified) on

"(2) what if someone who is not a prophet (and not crazy) and believes that they have been given signs/revelations from God? Would they be considered bad by Bahaie faith? Of course I do understand that there are bad individuals who might lie about a revelation from God to gain power or other earthly needs".

Here is a word from Abdulbaha, I am not sure if what you are refering to as a revelation is a spiritual gift, rapture, enlightenment, nirvana but it seems highly desirable and confirmative to experience such reality.

"...thy being ablaze with the fire of the love of thy Lord, the Mighty, the Praised, and the penetration of the Spirit of Truth in thy limbs,... untill it hath taken the reins of power from thy hands and moveth thee as it willeth and ... attracteth thee as it willeth. This is becoming of whatever heart is replenished with the spirit of the love of God. Thou shalt surely behold wondrous traces and shalt discover the signs of thy Mighty Lord".

I hope this helps.

by Mani Atabaki (not verified) on

I respect Bahaii's as far as what they believe in and rights are as a human. BUT, I think the faith is Islam injected with degenerative genes to destroy Islam based on politics right from roots of it's originating era. Just take a look at the path the founders and descendsants took and you will see that it was and is used as a weapon against Muslims.

I had few friends who were Bahaii during my college years. "N" (female student) had won the heart of poor "R" (male student) and were acting like love birds. They would spend lot of time to discuss their peacefullness and holiness!!

The Bahaii boys went after girls and Bahaii girls used to hook up with boys to talk them into becoming Bahaii. All they did was to put up a nice peaceful, loving, compassionate, intellectual face to convert college students. When they see that you have no tendency, they show their true intentions.

Thanks for your reply Babak SD .

by Anonym (not verified) on

Your answer cleared my first question, but I guess the second question is really not the kind of question people usually ask.

Clearly the prophets can get revelations from God. However, I believe that God and his Angels reveal to, or tell people in unmistakable ways (not in talking in the head or dreams or a way that can be disputed), good things that God wants them to know and do. In a way that is written and can not be interpreted as anything else. Some do not consider this as a revelation but that was my impression.

Do not accept anything on Face Value...

by faryarm on

Do not accept anything on Face Value...

Bahais must search and investigate the facts for themselves.

Intellectual acceptance of facts are not enough, and no amount of "Gloss" can have any effect on human behavior, especially these days when one is bombarded by shallow advertising and information overload.

Intellectual acceptance of facts are not enough; it is Love, devotion, and sacrifice for an idea and principle that is the greatest influence on human behaviour. 

If it were not for the power of example of the Bab and Baha'u'llah, Abdul Baha His son, there would be no mention or trace of the Bahai Faith.

Those who have tried to oppose, misrepresent, discredit, persecute and eliminate Bahais, are on the wrong side of history,the Story of Baha'u'llah shows that:

I was a Baha'i for Several Years

by Hamidi (not verified) on

I was a practicing Baha'i for several years before discovering (on my own) the internal inconsistencies and overly simplistic answers of the Baha'i religion. After a closer examination of Islam, however, I can clearly see that the Baha'i faith has simply 'cut and pasted' the parts of Islam they like into a newly packaged, sanitized religion. The really sad part about this is that I, having been raised in a Christian home, knew nothing about Islam and it's teachings, and so when I began searching for a new religious framework, the Baha'i Faith 'made sense' to me. I unknowingly accepted it at face value, not knowing that the most profound teachings it offers are really those of Islam.

After discovering for myself the lies and misrepresentations Baha'is (probably unknowingly) make about their history and doctrines, I found that in order for the Baha'i Faith to be true, one would have to accept a number of claims at face value, without any evidence.
Among them:

1. Baha'u'llah's claims for himself (the Baha'i puts 'faith' in Baha'u'llah much as a Christian puts 'faith' in the person of Jesus (pbuh)).

2. The historical necessity of a globally unifying religion. By this, I mean to say that one would have to accept that all religions promised a single religious answer and a messianic figure, and that those 'prophecies' were in fact in harmony. This is patently false, and Baha'is simply take those parts of messianic prophecy from other religions they like, and discard the rest as 'uninspired'

3. The claims of the Bab for himself, and further, that his claims in fact reinforce Baha'i teachings. It seems to me that Baha'is are told what the Bab 'meant' in his writings and interpret his entire life in terms of Baha'i-specific doctrines and narratives, without access to the canon of the Bab's writings. Not only do Baha'is not have access to the complete writings and teachings of the Bab, those to which they do have access are interpreted solely from a Baha'i perspective, and not at face value.

I could go on, but you get my point. The sad thing in all this was that not only did the Baha'i Faith end up being just another religious 'bait-and-switch' scheme, but that it distorts what Islam is, and presents itself as the 'fulfillment' of Islam while in fact it simply isn't. The simple message of the Qu'ran 'This day have I perfected your religion for you, completed My favour upon you and have chosen for you ISLAM as your religion.' is hidden behind a web of deceit and deliberate misrepresentation. Take 19th-century messianic Twelver Shi'aism, combine it with ethnic Persian nationalism, add a generous helping of 20th-century advertising gloss, and VOILA! - the Baha'i Faith miraculously appears!

Dear Anonym,

by Babak SD (not verified) on

Baha'i's believe in the principle of progressive revelation. That is, there will continue to be prophets from God as human beings evolve with time and new teachings are needed to address the needs of the era.

The quote you have referenced indicates that based on writings of Baha'u'lla'h, the next prophet of God shall come no sooner than 1,000 years from the date Baha'u'lla'h declared his message to humanity (1863). Whether this happens exactly at 1,000 years or 1,002 years or 1,200 years is not known. Just no sooner than 1,000 years.

Dear Bahais

by Anonym (not verified) on

I am including a quote from the book of Aqdas pp37:

"Whoso layeth claim to a Revelation direct from God, ere the expiration of a full thousand years, such a man is assuredly a lying impostor. We pray God that He may graciously assist him to retract and repudiate such claim. Should he repent, God will, no doubt, forgive him. If, however, he persisteth in his error, God will, assuredly, send down one who will deal mercilessly with him. Terrible, indeed, is God in punishing! Whosoever interpreteth this verse otherwise than its obvious meaning is deprived of the Spirit of God and of His mercy which encompasseth all created things"

My question is this; (1) Does this mean that Bahaies believe that Hazrate Baha was the last Prophet? Because any other new prophet in the future will/must have revelations direct from God.

Also, (2) what if someone who is not a prophet (and not crazy) and believes that they have been given signs/revelations from God? Would they be considered bad by Bahaie faith? Of course I do understand that there are bad individuals who might lie about a revelation from God to gain power or other earthly needs.

Ignore ridiculous blogs, not worth your time

by Babak SD (not verified) on

They say the best defense is offense. Lately there has been a lot of Islam and IRI bashing on some of the blogs on Iranian.com

Although most if not all this bashing is done by non Baha'i's, the pro IRI elements who have been given the task of policing popular internet sites and disseminating mis and disinformation, have taken an offensive posture with Baha'i's yet again to take the spot light off of IRI.

Most readers of Iranian.com can see through this attempt.

Please do not waste your time and don't legitimize this post by numerous responses; that's exactly what these people want. 1 post with the real teachings of Baha'u'lla'h is enough to refute this idiotic post.

The Position of Baha'u'llah

by Covenant2 (not verified) on

The Position of Baha'u'llah

Bahaullah seems to have suffered from a disease now called Schizophrenia, i.e., he had a dual personality. The effect of this disease was so severe that even Bahaullah was unable to fully comprehend who he really was. This affliction also affected the quality of his so-called "revelations".

As the book on page 138 candidly states, "Baha has written with reference to the Central Theme of his revelations that at one time we spoke in the language of the law-giver (God), and in another in that of the truth seeker and the mystic (human)". When the central theme of his revelation is so funny and foolish, one can very well comprehend what the revelation must be like, full of absurdity and contradictions. And this is exactly what happened.

Anyhow, as in the case of Bab, we have Baha in various dimensions and facets. Broadly we classify it into 2 major aspects. On one hand we have the magnanimous Baha who is Divine, and at the same time non-Divine, and still the occupant of an outstanding station, on the other hand we have the meek, lamenting, helpless, sorrowful, thrashed, stripped and exiled and accursed Baha. If such are the attributes of God, then atheists truly need to be saluted for the non-belief in God.

We shall now deal with each of these aspects in detail

The Divine And/Or Mighty Positions of Baha
Baha himself affirms that the day of revelation was what every prophet had announced and for which the soul of every prophet had thirsted (page 7)

Bab believed in 'Him whom God shall manifest' before all creations were created and did his glory before all who are in the heavens and the earth (page 23). Baha claimed to be the one 'whom God shall manifest'. This implies that the first two creations were Bab and Baha.

* Bab said "in the year nine you will attain the presence of God" (page 23). Shoghi has claimed that this prophecy was fulfilled by the advent of Baha. Thus Baha is God, isn't this what you mean Shoghi?

* Baha asserts regarding his revelation and that of Bab thus "That so brief an interval should have separated this most mighty and wondrous Revelation (Baha) from Mine own previous Manifestation (Bab) is a secret that no man can unravel and a majority such as no mind can fathom" (page 59)

We have Bab and Baha, both of whom are apparently manifestations of the same personality. Now if Baha was Bab, then Bab was Baha. The the Babi Faith is the Bahai faith and vice-versa. Then the execution of Bab was in effect the martyrdom of Baha and Baha's death was in fact that of Bab's.

The various positions of Baha cannot be gauged by a human mind. They are innumerable and very confusing.

Baha is the One whom innumerable followers already recognize as the Judge, the Lawgiver, the Redeemer of all mankind, as the Organizer of all planets, as the Unifier of the children of men, as the Inaugurator of the long awaited millenium, as the Originator of a new universal cycle, as the Establisher of the most great peace', as the Fountain of the most great justice, as the Proclaimer of the coming of age of the entire human race, as the Creator of the new world order and as the Founder and as an Inspirer of a world civilisation (page 60).

*

To Israel He (Baha) was neither more nor less than the incarnation of the Everlasting Father (page 60). In other words he was God himself. Note the words, 'neither more nor less' used here. Actually the word more serves no purpose, as none knows a position higher than God (as yet). But the words 'no less' indicate that Baha was not less than God.
*

To the Christians, He (Baha) was Christ returned in the glory of the Father (page 60). Again here we find proof of Baha's divinity.
*

To the Shiah Islam, He (Baha) was the return of Imam Husayn (page 60).

But Shiahs believe in the actual return of Imam Husayn, in the same body and the same physical features as before his martyrdom. And they expect to see him as a grown-up person and not as one who has been born.

*

To the Sunni Islam, He (Baha) was the advent of the Spirit of God i.e., Jesus Christ (page 60). Again we believe that Jesus will descend from the sky at Masjid-e-Aqsa and not that he will be born in a Mirza family in Iran.
*

To the Zoroastrians, He (Baha) was the Promised Behram (page 60)

*

To the Hindus, He (Baha) was the reincarnation of Krishna (page 60)

*

To the Buddhists, He (Baha_ was the fifth Buddha (page 60)

*

Baha was styled the Lord of Lords (Rabbul Rab), the Most Ancient Name (Ism-e-Azm), the anciant beuty, the preserved treasure, the most great light, the most great ocean, the supreme heaven, the great announcement, the speaker on Sinai....(page 60).

*

We all know that it was God Almighty who spoke to Prophet Musa (Moses) on the Sinai. Thus Baha is God Almighty himself. Also since Baha is self sufficient, he is God as only God is sellf Sufficient.

*

To Him (Baha), Isaiah had alluded as the everlasting Father.. the One who will come with a strong hand (page 60). But Baha himself was thrashed, cursed and exiled. This means that the prophecies are not for Baha.

*

Of Him, David had sung in his Psalms, acclaiming Him as the 'Lord of the Hosts' and the 'King of Glory.' (page 60).

*

Ezekiel called Him as the 'Lord who shall be king over all the earth'. (page 60)

*

Joel and Zephaniah referred to Him as the 'Day of Jehovah' (page 60)

*

Daniel and Ezekiel had both acclaimed His Day as 'the day of the Lord' while Malachi described it as 'the great and dreadful day of the Lord' (page 60).

*

"To Him did Zoraster allude by the World Saviour 'Shah Bahram'." (page 61)

*

"He alone is meant by the prophecy of Gautam Buddha regarding 'a Buddha named Maitreya, the Buddha of Universal fellowship'." (page 62)

*

"To Him the Bhagvad Gita of the Hindus had referred to as the 'Most Great Spirit, the Tenth Avatar and the Immaculate Manifestation of Krishna." (page 61) Again in all these Bahaullah is referred to as God, the Almighty.

*

"To Him Christ referred to as the Comforter, the Son of Man who shall come in the Glory of His Father." (Page 61) thereby implies Divinity.

*

Saint Paul alluded His day as the times of restitution of all things which God has spoken by the mouths of all His Prophets since the world began (page 61)

*

"To Him Muhammad (PBUH) had alluded in his book (Quran) as the Great Announcement and declared this Day Allah (Subhanahu) will come down overshadowed with clouds", the Day wherein "the Lord shall come and the angels rank in rank. His advent has been mentioned in the 'Heart of Quran' (Surah Yaseen) as the third Messenger sent down to strengthen the two who had preceded Him. His Day is glorified as the Day of Judgement (Qiyamat). The Day when mankind shall stand before the Lord of the World and all shall come to Him in humble guise... the Day wherein accounts shall be taken." (Page 61)

*

All the signs mentioned above are regarding Qiyamat and do not allude to Bahaullah's advent. Also on page 54 Bab claims to be the 'Great Announcement'.

*

Shaykh Ahmed-e-Ahsai said 'I can appoint no time. His Cause will be known after Him'. (Page 62) The Bahais interpret statements to suit their own motives, with absolutely no regard to what the person actual meant. They have twisted everything very conveniently to suit their objectives. The Bahai shrewdness and deceit is indeed amazing. Shaykh Ahmed-e-Ahsai has said that His Cause will be known 'after a while' which in Arabic is called as 'HIN'. Now Bahais calculated the Hin to be number 68. Thus they say that the Cause of Bahaullah was in 1268. But where has Shaykh Ahmed-e-Ahsai mentioned 1268.' It could very well have been 1368 or 1468 or 6851. Moreover the Cause of Bahaullah was known among the people only on April 22, 1863, i.e. 1279 A.H., when Bahaullah declared his mission in the Garden of Ridvan. Hence the prophecy does not refer to Bahaullah.

*

"Syed Kazim Rashti said 'Verily I say, after the Qaem, the Qaiyyum will be manifest.'" (page 62) Qayyum being among the titles of God, the Almghty, the Bahais consider Bahaullah God on the basis of the saying of this heretic.

*

Bab had referred him as 'The Preserved One of Allah'." (Page 62) This title by no means refers to Bahaullah. It refers to the Mahdi. (Noorul Absaar page 172 by Shiblanji & Al Fusoolul Muhimma chapter 12 by Ibne Sabbagh Maliki) This fact has been also been testified by Bab in 'Sahifae Adaliyya'.

*

"Bab had said that He had made a covenant with all created things regarding Him (Bahaullah)." (Page 62) This would mean as mentioned before that Bab was God.

*

"Bab says that His (Bahaullah) Days are the Days of God Himself." (Page 63)

*

'The Revelation of Bahaullah signaled the end of the Prophetic Era and marked the Era of Fulfillment' (Page 64)

So Bab is not the Last Prophet. Then was it Bahaullah ? or was it Abbas Affandi ? Bahais must refer to Badae-ul-Aasar vol. 2, where Abbas Affandi is termed as 'the Prophet of the East'.

*

Bahaullah says, "I am He who fears none though all those who are in the Heavens and Earth rise against me... This is my hand, which God has turned white for all to see. This is My Staff, were We to cast it down, it would, of a truth, swallow up all created things." (Page 107)

It seems that the only reason Bahaullah did not throw his staff was that it would have swallowed him also. Or is it that Bahaullah was never created but eternal? Is he God?

*

'Bahaullah says that he fears none but God and that he speaks at God's bidding.' (Page 111) But Bahaullah is God. Then why does he fear his own self? Also it implies that if he is God then he speaks at his own bidding.

*

"When the exiles disembarked at Acca, the people had gathered to behold the 'God of the Persians'." (Page 118) Again implying that he is God.

*

'Bahaullah in Kitab-e-Aqdas bids King William I to hear His Voice, the voice of God Himself.' (Page 131) Again proclaiming divinity.

*

Bahaullah says "No by God, the Lord of the Mighty Throne, My Signs have encompassed the earth and my power enveloped all mankind'." (page 139) Implying that he is God.

*

Mrs. Hearst says about Abbas Affandi "..for surely He is the son of God and the spirit of the Father abides in Him" (Page 162) Thus we now have both the father and son as Gods. So this is a little like the Christian Trinity where you have the Father (Bahaullah), the Son (Abbas Affandi) and the Holy Ghost (Bab).

*

'Bahaullah was exiled to Baghdad and He immortalized it as the City of God.' (Page 70)

*

'Mirza Aga Jahan, his servant was designated as Khaadimullah (Servant of God).' (Page 73)

covenant not only likes to

by Seagull (not verified) on

covenant not only likes to distort and mutulate pictures she also likes to distort and mutulate FACTS.

Here is what Bahaullah says that scares covenant,

"It is incumbent upon all the peoples of the world to reconcile their differences, and, with perfect unity and peace, abide beneath the shadow of the Tree of His care and loving-kindness"
Baha'U'llah

... امر هر قدر عظیم تر است دشمنش بیشتر است

faryarm


ابر هر قدر کثیف باشد اشعه افتاب عاقبت او را متلاشی مینماید و محو میکند.انوار افتاب حقیقت را هیچ ابری حجاب نشود.نسیم گلستان الهی را هیچ سدی مانع نگردد.باران اسمانیرا هیچ حائلی عاجز نشود...درخت بی بار را کسی سنگ نزند.چراغ خاموش را کسی تعرض ننماید. ...نظیر انکه از پیش گذشت در زمان موسی نگاه کنید غرور فرعون بنی اسرائیل را مدد وعون بود.هر چند ان ظالم اعلام کرد که موسی قاتل است.لهذا باید قصاص گردد ولی این قوت ثاثیری نداشت.فریاد کرد که این موسی و هارون هر دو مفسدند.میخواهند دین مبین شما را بهم زنند.و در مملکت اختلاف و فساد اندازند.لهذا اهلاک و اعدام انها لازمست (ان هذان لسل حران یریدان ان یبدلا دینکم بسحر هما و یذهبا بطر یقتکم المثلی) ابدا ثاثیری نکرد.بلکه نور موسی درخشید.شریعتش منتشر شد.نورانیت تجلی سینا احاطه کرد...اگر امر عادی بود کسی تعرض بر ان نمینمود.امر هر قدر عظیم تر است دشمنش بیشتر است لهذا ما باید در نهایت ثبوت و رسوخ بموجب تعالیم بهاالله عمل نمائیم مرحبا. خطابات حضرت عبدالبها,

Baha'u'llah claimed to be nothing less than a new and independent Messenger from God

""O peoples of the world! Give ear unto the call of Him Who is the Lord of Names, Who proclaimeth unto you from His habitation in the Most Great Prison: “Verily, no God is there but Me, the Powerful, the Mighty, the All-Subduing, the Most Exalted, the Omniscient, the All-Wise.” In truth, there is no God but Him, the Omnipotent Ruler of the worlds. Were it His Will, He would, through but a single word proceeding from His presence, lay hold on all mankind. Beware lest ye hesitate in your acceptance of this Cause—a Cause before which the Concourse on high and the dwellers of the Cities of Names have bowed down. Fear God, and be not of those who are shut out as by a veil. Burn ye away the veils with the fire of My love, and dispel ye the mists of vain imaginings by the power of this Name through which We have subdued the entire creation.""

All of God’s Messengers and Prophets are on the one hand human, with all the limitations , and on the other hand,they are “Manifestations” of God, in that God speaks through them to the rest of humanity.

In Them, we hear His voice (and not Their own), and through Them, we see His power and majesty and all His other attributes. They can be seen as the mouthpiece of God, or as a hollow reed totally empty of self or identity, of selfish impurities or desires, carrying to us the voice of God in utmost purity.

Regarding His own relationship to God, Baha'u'llah says: "When I contemplate, O my God, the relationship that bindeth me to Thee, I am moved to proclaim to all created things "verily I am God"; and when I consider my own self, lo, I find it coarser than clay!"

Also READ THIS:

"Lo! those who swear allegiance unto Thee (Muhammad), swear allegiance only unto God. The Hand of God is above their hands".

It is understood by all who read this verse that it does not mean that God became incarnate in the person of Muhammad, but rather this pledge was taken through the Prophet on behalf of God. It is understood the same way these other verses are understood: "Whoso obeyeth the messenger hath obeyed God" and "And thou (Muhammad) threwest not when thou didst throw, but Allah threw" [48:10], [4:80] and [8:17]
