Iranian opponents of the Bahá'í Faith have accused the religion of being involved with other powers. During its early years, the Bahá'í Faith and its predecessor, the Bábí religion, experienced growth in Persia. This growth caught the attention of the government and the ecclesiastical leaders in the country, who began searching for ways to stop the growth of the religion, which they saw as a threat to their power and authority. The resistance stems from a variety of Bahá'í teachings which challenge traditional Islamic belief, including principles that call into question the need for a priesthood, and the entire Shí i ecclesiastical structure. In addition to government and clergy-led persecution of the Bahá'ís, Iranian government officials have claimed that Bahá'ís have had ties to foreign powers, and were agents of Russian imperialism, British colonialism, American expansionism, Zionism, as well as being responsible for the policies of the previous Shah of Iran. These accusationsagainst the Bahá'ís have been disputed, and described as misconceptions, with no basis in historical fact.
