033.040 Muhammad is not the father of any of your men, but (he is) the Messenger of Allah, and the Seal of the Prophets: and Allah has full knowledge of all things. (QUٌٌRAN)
Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) said :"The example of me and the prophets before is like a man who built a house and made it very beautiful except for a place of a brick,so the people used to pass by the house and wonder:"why don't you put that brick",i am that brick and i am the seal of all prophets." (Bukhari and Mosslem)

Their argument is that he is not a prophet, or a messenger, but rather he is something greater than a prophet/messenger.
The response to them is quite simple. The word nabi (prophet) in arabic refers to anyone whom Allah conveys something (yunabiu) and likewise they are commanded to convey it to others. Therefore, every messenger, and everyone 'superior' to a messenger, are by default a prophet. So therefore 'Bahaiullah' claiming to not be a prophet, but rather someone of a higher status, is void.
The clearest deviation that bahaism presents from Islam is their concept of God manifesting, which is a clear form of polytheism, for God is not comparbale to anything, and His attributes are not like the creation.
And Allah knows best.

The Bab declared that the prophets were divine manifestations of God himself and that he, the Bab, was one of the prophets, equal to Muhammad in importance and the precursor of an even greater “Manifestation,” which was to appear 19 years after the founding of Babism. He also wrote a new holy book, the Bayán (Explanation), to supersede the Qur’an, the holy book of Islam. Babism forbade polygamy and concubinage and sought to alter many other Islamic customs. Babism also proclaimed the coming of an era in which all religions would be united under one spiritual head. The Bab soon founded a group of 18 disciples, 17 men and 1 woman, and the faith spread rapidly in Persia until the accession of Shah Nasr-ed-Din in 1848. During the shah’s rule the government and the Babis came into conflict. After two years the Babis were subdued, and the Bab, although he had not taken part in the conflict, was imprisoned and executed at TabrÄ«z on July 9, 1850.

he Baha'i Faith is the youngest of the world’s independent monotheistic religions. Founded in Iran in 1844, it now has more than 5 million adherents in 236 countries and territories. Baha'is come from nearly every national, ethnic and religious background, making the Baha'i Faith the second-most widespread religion in the world.
Baha'is view all the world's major religions as a part of a single, progressive process through which God reveals His will to humanity. The Founder of the Baha'i Faith, Baha'u'llah (1817-1892), is recognized as the most recent in a line of Divine Messengers that stretches back beyond recorded time and includes Abraham, Moses, Buddha, Zoroaster, Christ and Muhammad. The central theme of Baha'u'llah's message is that humanity is one single race and that the day has come for humanity’s unification into one global society. While reaffirming the core ethical principles common to all religions, Baha'u'llah also revealed new laws and teachings to lay the foundations of a global civilization. “A new life,” Baha'u'llah declares, “is, in this age, stirring within all the peoples of the earth.”
The worldwide Baha'i community, composed of people from virtually every racial, ethnic and religious background, is working to give practical expression to Baha'u'llah’s vision of world unity. We invite you to learn more about the Baha'i Faith and benefit from the spiritual and practical insights found in the Revelation of Baha'u'llah, God's message for humanity in this day.

That's a joke!! Jesus Christ, Son of God died on the cross and resurrected on the third day, He payed the price for our sins.
God didn't send your so called "prophet" to seal anything.
Jesus Christ taught love, peace, and forgiveness. Anything or anyone that denies Jesus Christ for who He is, is not from God.
