JERUSALEM — It was
reported here that the
Egyptian government
banned the Bahai religion.
The Cairo newspaper Al
Ahram said the high court
for constitutional affairs
presided over by the adviser
Badawi Hamouda, issued a
ruling on the Bahais in
Egypt, stating that dissolu-
tion of the Bahai institu-
tions does not contradict the
fundamental principle
whereby the Egyptian con-
stitution grants freedom of
worship to citizens.
"When the court dealt
with the substance of the
Bahai faith it determined
that there was agreement
among Moslems that this
religion is not included
among the recognized reli-
gions and that any Moslem
who believes in it is to be
considered a heretic.
"The principles and
sources of Bahai contradict
those of Islam just as they
contradict those of the other
Semitic faiths. The Bahais
legislated their own consti-
tution in accordance with
their zeal. This constitution
blasphemes against the
laws of Islam in all that per-
tains to fasting, prayer, and
personal matters.
"They also went beyond
the bounds of religion and
have engaged in a policy
hostile to the Arab nation,
in addition to being hostile
to Islam. In their books
they include Zionistic
propaganda and declare
that the sons of Israel
shall gather in the Holy
Land and there establish a
Jewish nation formed from
all their dispersed num-
bers."
The article continued:
"After reviewing the fun-
damentals of the faith, the
court ruled, that the law
obligates the dissolution of
the Bahai institutions and
centers, and the cessation of
all their activity, transfer of
their properties and all con-
tained within them to the
authority of the body ap-
pointed by the Minister of
the Interior."
