A life in stories
Bábí period (1844–1853)
The Last Charge: Mullá Ḥusayn Falls at Ṭabarsí
Nabíl's chronicle records the death of Mullá Ḥusayn-i-Bushrú'í, first of the Letters of the Living, in the closing months of the siege of the shrine of Shaykh Ṭabarsí in Mázindarán. He led the final sortie at dawn on February 2, 1849, and fell with a musket-ball to the chest in the same charge that broke the Imperial line.
Would That My Mother Were With Me: The Martyrdom of Quddús
After the betrayal of the Bábís at Fort Ṭabarsí in the spring of 1849, Quddús was led back into Bárfurúsh. He was eighteen of the Báb's Letters of the Living and the only one besides Bahá'u'lláh who would be honoured by the Báb with a written commentary. He was killed in the open square of the town. His last words were of the splendour of his nuptials.
The Last Dawn at the Little Fort
Mullá Ḥusayn, the first person ever to believe in the Báb, gathered his hungry, weary friends one last time and led them out into the cold dawn for the One he loved.
The Bridegroom of Bárfurúsh
A brave young hero named Quddús kept his promise to God to the very end, and spoke of joy even on the hardest day of his life.
