Best Answer

The rule goes back to the time of Baha'u'llah, and was confirmed by Abdu'l-Baha. I've read two or three passages from Baha'u'llah in Persian, forbidding teaching in "Sham" (the Ottoman province of Syria which includes present-day Israel and Palestinian territories). However I don't get a clear reason for the prohibition from the quotes. I don't think anyone understands it - we obey because Baha'u'llah said so. It seems to be a permanent rule, only the boundaries of the area around the Baha'i World Centre where there is no Baha'i teaching activity have changed, as governments have come and gone.
