Mullá ‘Abdu’l-Karím-i-Qazvíní

Mullá ‘Abdu’l-Karím and the White Bird

When the Báb asked Mullá ‘Abdu’l-Karím in Shíráz whether he was seeking the Manifestation, he wept, and later told his friends how a vision of Siyyid Kázim and, years afterward, a white bird that spoke those very words to him in prayer had prepared him for that moment.
