Mullá Muḥammad-'Alíy-i-Zanjání was among the boldest and most independent-minded religious leaders of Persia — a man unafraid to break with the crowd of clerics when his own judgment told him otherwise.

He sent a trusted messenger to investigate — and when the answer came back, he was ready to act on the truth whatever it cost him.
