A comment on part one:

On page 2 of Introduction to the Kitab-i-Iqan Paragraph 2, it says: "Revealed the end of Baha'u'lla`h's stay in......in answer to questions posed by Haji Mirza Siyyid Muhammed, the Bab's maternal uncle, who supported his Nephew, but who did not believed in Him. .......................

I read in The Revelation of Baha' 'u'lla'h Book 1 - Bghdad 1853-63 by Adib Taherzadeh pp 158-159 it says that Haji Mirza Siyyid Muhammed, uncle of The Bab, "..........declared his faith, aknowledged the authenticity of the Messages of the Ba'b and Baha'u'llah and identified himself as a follower of these twin Manifestations of God. As to Haji Mirza Siyyid Hasan-'Ali the youngest uncle of the Ba'b ........through the devoted efforts of his wife's brother, he too accepted tha Faith and remained steadfast......

Indeed, all the family of the Ba'b including His mother..... ebraced the Faith. This was actually prophesied by the Ba'b Himself, for He had said that God through His bounty would guide all His family to recognize His Cause."

With love and greeting
