When Mulla Husayn arrived in Tihran [circa 1848] he was visited by many
believers. Nabil, the great Baha’i historian recorded what he himself heard
from Áqáy-i-Kalím, Bahá’u’lláh’s faithful brother, about Mulla Husayn:
“When Mulla Husayn arrived at Tihran, I, together with a
large number of believers, went to visit him. He seemed to us the very
embodiment of constancy, of piety and virtue. He inspired us with his rectitude
of conduct and passionate loyalty. Such were the force of his character and the
ardour of his faith that we felt convinced that he, unaided and alone, would be
capable of achieving the triumph of the Faith of God.”
