177 We Perceive That Which Secretly And Stealthily Diffuseth From Thee #164

Categories: NOTES
Sources: The Kitab-i-aqdas

This passage is a reference to the intrigues of a group of Azalis,

followers of Mirza Yahya (see note 190), associated with the city of

Kirman. They include Mulla Ja'far, his son Shaykh Ahmad-i-Ruhi and

Mirza Aqa Khan-i-Kirmani (both sons-in-law of Mirza Yahya), as well as

Mirza Ahmad-i-Kirmani. They not only sought to undermine the Faith, but

involved themselves in political intrigues which culminated in the

assassination of Nasiri'd-Din Shah.
