Bachora's experience

Bahaola, born in Tehran, June1817+065438+10/2. He is the son of a wealthy government minister, Bozor al-Nuri, formerly known as Hussein Ali, whose family can be traced back to the great dynasty of the ancient Iranian empire. When he was young, Bahaola lived a prince's life, and his education was mainly horseback riding, fencing, calligraphy and classical poetry.

As early as1in the early 1940s, he was called "the father of the poor". 1844, when Baha 'ola became the main supporter of Barbie, he quickly lost his privileged position.

As a pioneer of Baha 'i, the Babi movement swept through Iran like a whirlwind, causing severe persecution by religious conservative forces. After its founder, bathin, was shot dead, Baola was also arrested and sent to Teheran barefoot and flail. Powerful people in the court and church demanded his death. However, due to the prestige of Baha 'oula and the prominent position of his family, as well as the protests of western embassies, Baha 'oula survived. However, he was thrown into the notorious "black hell"-Siachar prison in Persia. The authorities wanted him to die in prison, but on the contrary, this dungeon became the birthplace of a new religious apocalypse.

Bahaola spent four months in the Black Hell. During this time, he meditated on the whole range of his mission. "I'm just a person like ordinary people, sleeping in bed." But, you see, all the winds of glory blew over me and taught me everything. "He later wrote that it didn't come from me, but from the Almighty and All-knowing God. He also ordered me to preach loudly between heaven and earth ... "

After his release, Bahaola was expelled from his birthplace and began a career of exile, imprisonment and persecution for 40 years. He was first exiled to neighboring Baghdad. A year later, he lived in seclusion in the mountains of Kurdistan, where he lived alone for two years, thinking about the meaning of his so-called mission. This period is reminiscent of the seclusion of the founders of other great religions, such as the roaming of the Buddha, the forty days and nights spent by Christ in the desert, and the seclusion of Muhammad in the Sheila Cave.

1856, Baha 'oula returned to Baghdad at the urgent entreaties of exiled Babi and his son Abdul Bahai. Under his new leadership, the status of Babi Society gradually rose, and Baha 'oula's reputation as a spiritual leader spread throughout the city. Fearing that Baha 'oula's prestige would rekindle the public's enthusiasm for this belief, the Persian emperor's government successfully persuaded the Ottoman authorities to exile him to a more distant place.

1863 Before leaving Baghdad, Bahaola and his companions camped in a garden on the Tigris River. 2/kloc-0 From April to May 2, 2000, Bachora announced good news to the accompanying Man Zhan: he was the saint who was predicted and promised to appear in Baba and all other classics.

1On May 3rd, 863, accompanied by his family and selected companions, Bahara rode out of Baghdad for Fort Constanyine, the capital of the Ottoman Empire. He has become a very beloved and admired figure. The onlookers described the parting scene in moving language. According to the records, many onlookers had tears in their eyes and the authorities respectfully saw them off.

After staying in Fort Constanyine for four months, Bahaola was sent to Edinburgh as a national prisoner and arrived there on February 2nd. 1863. After staying there for about five years, Baha 'ola's reputation has been rising, attracting great interest from scholars, government officials and diplomats.

From September 65438 to September 0867, Bachora wrote a series of letters to the rulers of the world at that time, including French Charles Louis Napolé on Bonaparte, British Queen Victoria, German Caesar William I, Russian Tsar Alexander II, Austrian Emperor Franz Joseph, Pope pius ix, Ottoman Sultan Abdelaziz and Persian ruler Tsar Nasreddin.

Opponents continue to incite the Turkish government to send these exiles to Akka, the prison city of the Ottoman Empire in Palestine. Also known as the end of the world, the ultimate destination of the most serious murderers, robbers and government criminals. This is a city with dirty streets, damp and shabby houses and high walls. Aka has no clean water. People describe that the air there is so dirty that flying birds will fall from the air and suffocate.

Bahaola and his family arrived in such an environment on August 3 1, 1, 868. Aka is the last stop of his long exile, and he will spend the rest of his life in Aka and its suburbs for 24 years. Bahaola and his companions were initially detained in a prison in the military camp, and later transferred to a narrow house within the prison wall. These exiles were described as dangerous heretics. Facing the hostility of other residents in the city. Even children are chased and stoned when they go out. However, with the passage of time, Baha 'oula's doctrinal spirit finally penetrated the secular prejudice and indifference. Even some town officials and imams have become loyal admirers after studying the teachings of Baha 'i. As in Baghdad and Edinburgh, the moral quality of Baha 'oula has gradually won universal respect and admiration from the society, and even gained a leading position.

It was in Aka that Baha 'oula completed some of his most important works. Agatha Scripture (Bible), the Persian name more widely known in Baha 'i Oula, summarizes the fundamental laws and principles that his followers should follow and lays the foundation stone for Baha 'i management.

In the late period of 1870, Baha 'oula was allowed to move outside the city wall, and his followers were finally able to visit him in a relatively quiet and free environment. He lives in an abandoned building and can concentrate more on writing.

1On May 29th, 892, Bahara passed away. His body was buried in a room in the garden, adjacent to the restored building. This place is called Baki. For Baha 'is, this is the most sacred place on earth.
