Islam believes in all the prophets that came before it, such as Abraham, Moses, and Jesus. But it believes that Muhammad is the final prophet, and no legitimate prophet will come after him.

Baha'i also believes in the prophets of all the religions, including Zoroaster, the Buddha, Krishna, the Jewish Prophets, Jesus, and Muhammad. But in addition, it also believes in Baha'u'llah, the latest prophet, who came after Muhammad, in the 19th century.

In Baha'i, the prophets are called "Manifestations of God" and are elevated to a status which is above the status they receive in Islam.

Islam believes that true revelations were given to the previous prophets, but that the followers of the religions then changed the revelation. So it teaches that the Jews were given a true revelation, but that the Torah today does not preserve the original message. And it teaches that the Gospel today does not preserve the original message of Jesus. The Qur'an is believed to be the final revelation, and preserves the message perfectly and will not be changed.

Baha'i believes that every revelation has 2 parts. One part is temporary and specific to time and place. The other part is eternal. So each revelation has some things which are now outdated, because they had to do with a specific time and place. So it is not so much that the followers changed the revelation, but that the message needs updated. The "eternal" parts never need changed or updated.

Baha'u'llah's message is believed by Baha'is to be the updated, current message for our age. It teaches the eternal truths of all the religions and teaches unity of all religions.

Bahai are funny people who say all religions are okay all right, but do not explain why if all faiths are okay, we need one more faith to say just that.

Bahai were with the Shah of Iran who killed a lot of Shia, including throwing religious students from the roof of a religious school in Qom.

If they were truly for peace, why did they side with a violent man.

In my personal view Mr. Baha-Allah was created by the British to break the Shia Islam, just as they created the Wahabis to break the Arab Sunni Islam and defeat Turkey (Check out Lawrence of Arabia). Mahdavis were created to make discord among the sub-continent Muslims. Various newly created religious orders had sprouted all over the globe whereever the British had some influence to bring about the New World Order that we are currently undergoing.

Bahai is an incorporation of all religions. They believe all religions are really speaking the same truth, so they teach all religions at the same time.

I have quite a few Baha'i friends... my interpretation of their beliefs is: Bahai is to Islam what Universal Unitarianism is to Christianity.

the religion of Islam became into all started early interior the seventh century with the aid of a guy named Muhammad who claimed to have been visited with the aid of the angel Gabriel. in the time of those angelic visitations, which continued for approximately 23 years till Muhammad's dying, the angel Gabriel printed to Muhammad the words of God (that's Allah in Arabic) in Arabic. those dictated revelations contain what's at the same time known as a results of fact the Qur'an, Islam's holy e book. Muslims, the followers of Islam, have self belief the Qur'an to be the preexistent and perfect word of Allah. extra, there's no such element as an English, or the different language, version of the Qur'an. those are in simple terms translations of the meaning of the Qur'an, which in basic terms exists in Arabic.

Basically, Bahai does not kill people for not believing in it...
