In Islam it is categorically forbidden to pray to anything or anyone other than Almighty God. Everyday, when Bahá'ís performing their "Obligatory Prayer" or "Salát" or "Namáz", they face and prostrate towards Baha'u'llah's resting place and Shrine in Bahji, Israel. And technically it isn't to the Shrine as much as it is to Baha'u'llah Himself, because during the lifetime of Baha'u'llah, Bahá'ís turned to wherever He was residing, throughout His exiles. This, on the surface, seems to evidently be "Shirk", or worshipping someone other than God. We'll take a look more closely at the Qur'an and examine 4 reasons why this isn't idol worship.Sections: 0:38 Intro 2:37 The Divine Assayer - God Tests 13:07 The Qiblih 22:19 No Change in His Ways: Adam & Iblis 44:48 ConclusionDownload MP3 and PDF here: https://drive.google.com/open?id=14RaVSomW4GwemwjCMC7gAm9_ZKOshAY6YouTubePatreonFacebookInstagramTwitterOfficial Bahá'í websiteAmbient music: “Celtic Music | Ancient Forest | Celtic Lute & Guitar Music” by Soul CandleLicense: creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/#bahai #bahaullah #abdulbaha #bab #scienceandreligion #religion #faith #unity #knowledge #interfaith #religiousstudies #philosophy #god #unity #religion #war #religiouswar #division #conflict #disunity #arguments #investigation #unbiased #search #truthSupport the show (https://www.patreon.com/bridgingbeliefs)
