On the Baha'i Faith in Egypt: Hommage to Al-Azhar University

Every post of the new blog Baha'i Faith in Egypt is powerfully relevant, given the current situation of the Baha'is there. Read "Baha'i Faith: Early Days In Egypt" for historical background, including information about Mirza Abu'l-Fadl Gulpaygani who was a lecturer at al-Azhar University. Here is what one commenter, a Moslem from Canada, wrote in response to the post:

University of Al-azhar

As a Moslem I am proud that the leadership of Al-Azhar in Egypt was open-minded and was a source of light to the world. It is time that the Moslem world go back to its original Islamic teachings of enlightenment, tolerance, compassion, and sacrifice for the well being of others (not sacrifice to kill or hurt others). I hope that a new generation of Moslem scholars will arise to support the original teachings of Islam and dispell all the hatred that eminates from the dark side of those who have lost their way to true Islam.
