About:   Español — Este artículo sostiene que la actual persecución de la comunidad bahá'í de Irán contrasta con las enseñanzas originales de Mahoma en el Corán las cuales prescriben comprensión y el respeto hacia las minorías religiosas. Córdoba, una vez la capital de la España musulmana, conocida como al-Andalus, se configura como un ejemplo de tolerancia donde musulmanes, cristianos y judios coexistieron armoniosamente bajo el mandato islámico. Este artículo también describe la persecución de los miembros de la comunidad bahá'í iraní dentro de ese contexto histórico y teológico.

English — This article demonstrates that the current concerns of the Bahá'í community of Iran recalls Muhammad's original teachings in the Koran which prescribe comprehension and respect towards religious minorities. Cordova, once the capital of Moslem Spain, also known as al-Andalus, is given as an example of Moslem tolerance, where Christians and Jews coexisted in harmony under the Islamic / Moorish mandate. This article also describes the persecution of the members of the Iranian Bahá'ís within this historical and theological context.
