So, I couldn't find this story again. But my friend told me about another man called Vahid that traveled to the Bab and converted. I googled it and found the story at: BAHA'I FAITH art
Quickly it goes that Muhammad Shah was the Imperial Majesty in Persia at that time. He had heard about Bab and sent "Siyyid Yahyay-i-Darabi, the most learned and influential of his subjects, to travel to Shiraz and interview the Bab in order to ascertain the validity of His claims."
On his journey Siyyid Yahyay compiled a list of questions which he intended to present to the Bab in order to judge His response, but the Bab addressed the questions before Siyyid Yahyay was able to speak. Overwhelmed with awe and humility, he immediately pledged his allegiance to the Babs Cause and from that moment became known as Vahid.
You can read more of the story in the link. Also at page 44 in The Story of Baha'u'llah: Promised ... - Google Book Search
So, yea, of corse these stories sound similar to Mohammed, because they are both prophets. They had the same power to convince people.
Ahh yes, I did a report on Vahid for our Baha'i class last year.
I noticed they didn't have an article about him on Wikipedia, thankfully I had some time this morning to format my old notes accordingly:
Vahid Darabi - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
All the 200 volumes haven't even been translated into english, just the most important ones have. The rest is still in arabic and farsi. I'm guessing selected writings have been translated into 800 languages.
Welcome to the forum Idog.I don't know if this has been said, but Baha'is keep a different calendar and have different holidays.
I'm guessing that there could actually be a physical heaven and hell as long as you are in the presence of God and lack of God's presence.
I don't think Baha'i would go into many details of the future anyways as this wasn't written in the prophetic age, am I right about this?
I don't think that the prophetic age has ended, or will ever endI don't think Baha'i would go into many details of the future anyways as this wasn't written in the prophetic age, am I right about this?
We believe that what Jesus and the other prophets were talking about were spiritual heavens and hells.Yeah what I'm asking is if it's possible to have a spiritual condition of being near god and having a physical heaven as well. It would be possible to have both right?
And it would unify both religion teachings in a since
I would love to hear much more!
