I HAVE a probably stupid question.
Why do Bahai's quote the Quran and Muhammad. The Quran and Muhammad (saws)
instruct all of mankind to submit to islam and to look to God for guidnace.
The Quran states that Muhammad (saws) was the last prophet to mankind and
within his life, our religion, islam, was perfected and god has completed
his favor upon us.
So, where does Baha'u'llah come in? He could not be a prohet because the Quran
expressly states that Muhammad is the seal of the prophets or in other words
the last.
DO Baha'is strive to be muslims (in submission to god) or do they strive for
some other purpose? Allah says in the Quran that no other religion except
Islam will be accepted from us on the day of judgement.
If Bahai do not accept all of the Quran, why say you accept any of it. IN the
last 5 verses of sura 6 ('anam) allah tells us not to have any part with those
people who split their religion into parts or divisions and He says that on the
day of judgement htat he will tell them the truth of what they did.
Which "holy book" do Baha'is claim to follow?
