This article is part of a series on why the Bab – Mirza Ali Mohammed Shirazi is NOT the Mahdi of Islam. The Holy Prophet of Islam prophesied that the Mahdi will fill the earth with justice and equality just as it will be rife with injustice and inequality. This has been narrated in 130 traditions reported by both Shiah and Sunni traditionalists. Read more about the justice of the True Mahdi.
The important part to note is that justice would be done during the lifetime of the Mahdi and not in the near or far future.

Leave alone the world, Mirza Ali Mohammed Shirazi, The Bab was unable to establish justice in his own birthplace of iran. If justice was established during the time of the Bab, then why are the Bahais crying themselves hoarse over the injustice meted out to them in Iran.
The Babis themselves perpetrated injustice through the wars fought against the government of Iran in which they killed thousands of innocent children and women. Babis advocated violence and by Babi law were required to kill non-Babis. This has been reported by none other than Mirza Jani, the author of Nuktatul Qaf – the earliest history written about the Babis. (Read More)
