Here we bring forward the words of ‘Abdu’l-Baha from his will in which he Shuns his brother Mohammed Ali Effendi and his followers.

One of the greatest and most fundamental princi­ples of the Cause of God is to shun and avoid entirely the Cove­nant-breakers, for they will utterly destroy the Cause of God, exterminate His Law and render of no account all efforts exerted in the past….

[S]hould this man [Mohammed Ali] succeed in bringing dis­ruption into the Cause of God, he will utterly destroy and exter­minate it. Beware lest ye approach this man, for to approach him is worse than approaching fire!…

[I]t is incumbent upon the friends that are fast and firm in the Covenant and Testament to be ever wakeful lest after this wronged one is gone this alert and active worker of mis­chief may cause disruption, privily sow the seeds of doubt and se­dition and utterly root out the Cause of God. A thousand times shun his company. Take heed and be on your guard. Watch and examine; should anyone, openly or privily, have the least connec­tion with him, cast him out from your midst, for he will surely cause disruption and mischief.

[T]he beloved of the Lord must entirely shun them [i.e. the fol­lowers of Mohammed Ali], avoid them, foil their machinations and evil whisperings, guard the Law of God and His religion, en­gage one and all in diffusing widely the sweet savors of God and to the best of their endeavour proclaim His Teachings.

[Having given the reader reasons to believe that Mohammed Ali Effendi should not become the second successor of Baha’u’llah as envi­sioned in his will, the author of the Will and Testament of ‘Abdu’l-Baha appoints Shoghi Effendi Rabbani to a position of “Guardianship” with supreme authority as the representative of God and chairman of the Universal House of Justice, and decrees that he should be succeeded by his lineal descendants:]

Salutation and praise, blessing and glory rest upon that pri­mal branch of the Divine and Sacred Lote-Tree [i.e. Shoghi Ef­fendi], grown out, blest, tender, verdant and flourishing from the Twin Holy Trees [the Bab and Baha’u’llah]; the most wondrous, unique and priceless pearl that doth gleam from out the Twin surging seas; … [and] upon them that have believed, rested as­sured, stood steadfast in His Covenant and followed the Light that after my passing shineth from the Dayspring of Divine Guid­ance—for behold! he [Shoghi Effendi] is the blest and sacred bough that hath branched out from the Twin Holy Trees. Well is it with him that seeketh the shelter of his shade that shadoweth all mankind…

O my loving friends! After the passing away of this wronged one, it is incumbent upon the Aghsan (Branches) [i.e. sons of Baha’u’llah], the Afndn (Twigs) of the Sacred Lote-Tree [i.e. rela­tives of the Bab], the Hands (pillars) of the Cause of God [i.e. high­est appointed Baha’i leaders] and the loved ones of the Abha Beauty [i.e. followers of Baha’u’llah] to turn unto Shoghi Effendi… as he is the sign of God, the chosen branch, the Guardian of the Cause of God… He is the Interpreter of the Word of God and after him will succeed the first-born of his lineal descendants.

The sacred and youthful branch, the Guardian of the Cause of God, as well as the Universal House of Justice to be universally elected and established, are both under the care and protection of the Abha Beauty [Baha’u’llah], under the shelter and unerring guidance of the Exalted One [the Bab] (may my life be offered up for them both). Whatsoever they decide is of God. Whoso obeyeth him not [i.e. the Guardian], neither obeyeth them [the House of Justice], hath not obeyed God; whoso rebelleth against him and against them hath rebelled against God; whoso opposeth him hath opposed God; whoso contendeth with them hath contended with God; whoso disputeth with him hath disputed with God; whoso denieth him hath denied God; whoso disbelieved! in him hath disbelieved in God; whoso deviateth, separateth himself and turneth aside from him hath in truth deviated, separated himself and turned aside from God. May the wrath, the fierce indignation, the vengeance of God rest upon him! The mighty stronghold shall remain impregnable and safe through obedience to him who is the Guardian of the Cause of God. It is incumbent upon the members of the House of Justice, upon all the Aghsan, the Afhan, the Hands of the Cause of God to show their obedience, submissiveness and subordination unto the Guardian of the Cause of God, to turn unto him and be lowly before him. He that opposeth him hath opposed the True One, will make a breach in the Cause of God, will subvert His Word and will become a manifestation of the Center of Sedi­tion. Beware, beware, lest the days after the ascension (of Baha’u’l­lah) be repeated when the Center of Sedition [Mohammed AH] waxed haughty and rebelhous and with Divine Unity for his ex­cuse deprived himself and perturbed and poisoned others….

It is incumbent upon the Guardian of the Cause of God to ap­point in his own life-time him that shall become his successor, that differences may not arise after his passing. …

[S]hould the first-born… not inherit of the spiritual within him… then must he (the Guardian of the Cause of God) choose another branch [i.e. male descendant of Baha’u’llah] to succeed him.

The Hands of the Cause of God must elect from their own number nine persons… [who] must give their assent to the choice of the one whom the Guardian of the Cause of God hath chosen as his successor….

And now, concerning the House of Justice which God hath ordained as the source of all good and freed from all error… the Guardian of the Cause of God is its sacred head and the distin­guished member for life of that body. … Should any of the mem­bers commit a sin, injurious to the common weal, the Guardian of the Cause of God hath at his own discretion the right to expel him, whereupon the people must elect another one in his stead.

To none is given the right to put forth his own opinion or express his particular conviction. All must seek guidance and turn unto the Center of the Cause [i.e. the Guardian] and the House of Jus­tice. And he that turneth unto whatsoever else is indeed in griev­ous error.

[The “Guardian” is empowered to appoint and oversee a body of Baha’i religious leaders called “Hands of the Cause of God,” who are given the power of excommunication:]

[T]he Hands of the Cause of God must be ever watchful and so soon as they find anyone beginning to oppose and protest against the Guardian of the Cause of God, cast him out from the congregation of the people of Baha and in no wise accept any ex­cuse from him….

O friends! The Hands of the Cause of God must be nominated and appointed by the Guardian of the Cause of God. All must be under his shadow and obey his command. Should any, within or without the company of the Hands of the Cause of God disobey and seek division, the wrath of God and His vengeance will be upon him, for he will have caused a breach in the true Faith of God.

[Baha’is are instructed to donate 19% of their wealth to the Guard­ian of the faith:]

The Lord, as a sign of His infinite bounties, hath graciously favoured His servants by providing for a fixed money offering (Huquq), to be dutifully presented unto Him… It is to be offered through the Guardian of the Cause of God, that it may be ex­pended for the diffusion of the Fragrances of God and the exalta­tion of His Word, for benevolent pursuits and for the common weal.

Note :- 1) Shoghi Effendi died without leaving a will.

2) Shoghi did not have any successor nor did he appoint one.

3) The so called Universal House of Justice is operating without a guardian.

4) UHJ collects money from mainstream Baha’is in the name of Huququ’llah while this is the right of the Guardian.

‘Abdu’l-Baha went against Baha’u’llah’s teachings and His will. Shoghi Effendi went against ‘Abdu’l-Baha’s teachings and will. They both have played a political game for their personal motives and have kept the followers away from ‘Independent Investigation Of Truth’.
