Was Aqdas bankrolled with the profit from the opium trade? |
It is quite ironic that the publication of Husayn Ali's 'Most Holy Book' (Kitab-i-Aqdas) was quite possibly produced by profits coming from the coffers of the Afnans lucrative opium monopoly."

What does this then make of the release of the Aqdas by the Afnan family?
They printed the Aqdas with the profits from the opium trade?
It is interesting perspective into the affairs of the Baha'i Faith.
Shouldn't one lead by example- by deeds? Rather than words?
The Aqdas apparently forbids the use of opium but the book itself was printed with the profit from the opium trade.
