Are Baha’is the first to make a universal claim?
There have always been many groups and parties in different era and periods of history that came into being with different motives, goals, ideals and ideologies, and attracted more or less fans and followers. One of these parties and groups is the Baha’is, which has a universal claim.
Are Baha’is the first to make a universal claim!? Do they have the necessary laws for this government !?. Contrary to popular belief, the issue is a universal claim, and it has been claimed that only Baha’i have given this view and it has not been raised before.
Take a look at these phrases on one of the Baha’i propaganda pages on Facebook:

According to them, among the existing religions, only baha’is today have a universal claim and offer structural theories for world governance” where as the issue of world government has been preached not only in Islam but also as a promise to other prophets. The Almighty God says in the Holy Qur’an:
وَلَقَدْ كَتَبْنَا فِي أَلَزَّبُورِ مِنْ بَعْدِ أَلذذِّكْرِ أَنّْ لارْضَ يَرِثها عبادي الصالحون
“And indeed, we wrote in the Psalms after the Torah that the earth will be inherited by our worthy servants”.
As can be seen, God Almighty states in the Psalms that the promise of righteous servants will rule over the whole earth! Of course, proving the object does not negate us! The fact that God Almighty said that this promise was made in the Psalms is not a reason that it did not appear in the heavenly books before. Therefore, the claim that the Baha’i were the first to raise this idea is absurd and untrue.
Another point is that today it is not only the bahais who make universal claims, and this is another baseless claim. The third point is that Baha’is are not the criterion, but the Baha’i Faith is the criterion! because it is claimed that Baha’is have universal claims, whereas if this view is consistent with the teachings of the Baha’i Faith, it must be documented and should be based on bahai sources and texts.
The last point that can be made here, which of course is perhaps one of the biggest lies and false claims that have been made, is the claim to provide structural theories for world government! From a legal point of view, only those acts and behaviours for which punishment is prescribed by law are called a crime, and what is not provided for in the law for that punishment is not a crime.
So, of course, if one is to claim world government, one must have comprehensive and complete laws to govern it. On the one hand, the Baha’is long for world government, but on the other hand, they do not have the laws needed to govern even a single village! At the same time, one of the main requirements for the formation and administration of a world government is to have clear, explicit laws and rulings in line with this government.
What legal charter and book of comprehensive law has been compiled by the Baha’i who claim to be theorists of the structure of world government! How can this sect, which has not yet been able to formulate and present the basic rules and laws of daily life of an individual, have a universal claim!? .A Baha’i is facing uncertainty in many areas of his daily life! In the field of legislation, the Baha’i Faith is almost empty!
How did the Baha’is formulate and present such a novel structure for the world order!?
