Abdul-Baha’s selfishness in the implementation of the Baha’u’llah’s will
One of the serious recommendations in the Bahai Faith is to write a will and determine a deputy for its implementation. In this regard, Baha'u'llah wrote his testament called the Covenant. In that will, he introduced his eldest son Abbas as his first successor, followed by his second son, Muhammad Ali.
Abbas Effendi chose the title "Abdu'l-Baha" for himself, to show how much he was de voted to service and devotion to Baha'u'llah. However, Abdu'l-Baha did not comply with many of the provisions of his father's will, and in practice he even ignored it, and appoint ed another person instead of Baha’u’llah’s second successor.
He even did not show courtesy nor respect for his father's family and his confidants, and despite Baha'u'llah's insistence on loving his family and avoiding discord, he caused great discord among the family and other Baha'is. Although he is called "Abdu'l-Baha", there is not a sign of servitude in his actions. This article deals with cases of breach of Bahaullah’s will.
