Maybe it would clarify things if you define beforehand what you mean
by "independent religion". To be honest I don't know for sure what
that means.
What has to be true in order for two religions to be "independent"?

What proofs would he accept? The Baha'i Faith has independent sacred
texts,
a new calendar, a new Qiblih, laws which differ in some respects from Islam,
an explicit written Covenant. If those things don't convince a person this
is an independent Faith, then I don't know what will.
There is no need to convince this man. Let him think what he pleases.
The Cause of God is true and good regardless of my opinion or his, or
anyone's.
