How has Bahai evolved from other religions?
The Bahai Faith developed out of the Babi religion, both of them beginning in Iran, which was (and is) a Shiah Muslim country, in the 19th century. The Bahais have their own scriptures, but also accept the Quran and Bible as scriptural books, just as Christians have the New Testament, but also accept the Old Testament as scripture. Bahai is evolved, as compared to its predecessors, in three major respects. Its vision is global, because it was born at a time when the whole world was known, when peoples of different religions were in contact, when problems and their solutions were increasingly becoming global. So the Bahai Faith teaches the abolition of prejudices, world unity, world government, global solidarity to address poverty and other problems. Second, the Bahai Faith was born at a time of increasing literacy and mobility, so its teachings for the individual suppose a great deal of capacity and independence for each person. Girls should be educated. There are no priests: everyone should study religions and other matters for themselves and make up their own minds. The Bahai religious community is run by elected "assemblies," not by religious experts. Third, unlike the previous religions, in the Bahai Faith the founder, Baha'u'llah, gave written instructions on what to do after his death, appointing his son Abdu'l-Baha authority to interpret the Bahai teachings and lead the community. Abdu'l-Baha in turn appointed his grandson, Shoghi Effendi, to lead the community. And the system of elected "assemblies" is also specified in the Bahai scriptures.
