Abstract Through the course of this paper, I seek to enquire whether the Baha’i religion’s chief prophecy, gender-justice and equality is reflected in the Laws of Inheritance enumerated within the holy book, Kitab-I-Aqdas. This shall be achieved by citing the commandments and critiquing them comparatively using the other commandments itself, and taking the help of scholarly-articles about the same subject. The congruency between the commandments is analysed and contrasted with Islamic provisions, for better comprehension of the gender-unjust inheritance laws' justifiability. The paper concludes by discussing the applicability of these provisions and comments on the situation of the Baha’i community globally.
