The Hypocrisy of Ruhiyyah Khanum

The Guardianship holds a pivotal role within the Baha'i Faith, ensuring continuity, unity, and protection from schism. In previous articles, we have already provided proof of the Continuation of the Guardianship and the Spiritual Relationship of Mason Remey with Abdul Baha. Additionally, who doesn’t know about the formation of the Universal House of Justice in its embryonic form (the International Baha'i Council), of which Mason Remey was the head? Can anyone other than the Guardian be the head of the Universal House of Justice?

 

Shoghi Effendi’s widow, Ruhiyyih Khanum, was once a staunch supporter of the institution of the Guardianship. However, it is astonishing to see a complete 180-degree change in her attitude regarding the essentiality of the Guardianship after the death of her husband. This shift is something to ponder upon. Let us present some evidence that she supported the Continuation of the Guardianship during the lifetime of her husband. However, she broke the covenant after his death:

Purpose of Guardianship is to prevent any division / schism in the Baha’i Faith:

The institution of the Guardianship — tied into the fabric of the Faith by ‘Abdu'l-Baha through His Will in a knot no amount of perseverance and ingenuity can undo — has as it was meant to do, effectively prevented any division or schism in the Baha’i ranks.

 (Mary Maxwell [Ruhiyyih Khanum], Twenty-Five Years of the Guardianship [1948], p. 19

This was also published in The Baha’i World, vol. XI, 1946-1950, pp. 113-126.)

 

Guardianship is the cause of failure of enemies:

A few pages later, she has this to say: The principle of successorship, endowed with the right of Divine interpretation, is the very hub of the Cause into which its Doctrines and laws fit like the spokes of a wheel — tear out the hub and you have to throw away the whole thing. This is why our enemies, for a hundred years, failed to establish anything outside the Faith which could thrive or prosper. (Ibid, p. 23)

 

We notice in these comments that Ruhiyyih Khanum conceives of the guardianship as being absolutely essential to the faith and the reason for the faith’s claim that it has “no division or schism”

 

However, following Shoghi Effendi's death, instead of ensuring the smooth transition as outlined in ‘Abdu’l-Baha’s Will and Testament, a headless institution was created and named The Universal House of Justice, which deviates from the Baha'i principles. The hypocrisy of the liar Ruhiyyih Khanum played a pivotal role in creating division amongst Baha’is. They created a sect which followed the Headless UHJ (a sans-guardian group). One must be cautious of following them as they are wolves in the dress of a shepherd.

 

One who is honest will never turn a blind eye to this saying of Shoghi Effendi and follow the Sans-Guardian group:

 

Divorced from the institution of the Guardianship the World Order of Baha'u'llah would be mutilated and permanently deprived of that hereditary principle which, as ‘Abdu'l-Baha has written, has been invariably upheld by the Law of God... . Without such an institution the integrity of the Faith would be imperiled, and the stability of the entire fabric would be gravely endangered…..the necessary guidance to define the sphere of the legislative action of its elected representatives would be totally withdrawn. (Shoghi Effendi, The World Order of Bahaullah, 1955, p.148)

 

We invite readers to engage in constructive dialogue and reflection on this crucial aspect of the Baha'i Faith. Ask your NSA, LSA or the fake UHJ to clarify these points. I Bet they will never be able to give you a satisfactory response.

 

Truth is only with the Guardians. If you don’t follow the current living Guardian (Nosrat'u'llah Bahremand) then you are at a big loss.

 

Stay tuned for more…
