	Encyclopedia article: Biography of Baha'u'llah
		Baha'u'llah's father, Mirza Buzurg, was stripped of his governorship and of his government salary, though he retained the Nuri family's ancestral estates around the village of Takur in the Nur district of Mazandaran (Bamdad, Rijal, VI, pp.
		Azal also appears to have alienated many in the Baghdad community by briefly taking a widow of the Bab's as a temporary wife, in contradiction of the laws of the Bayan.
		Azal, however, was unwilling to go along with the plan, and since it required unanimity to succeed, it could not be carried through (Dahaji, pp.

	From Babism to Baha'ism: Problems of Militancy, Quietism, and Conflation in the Construction of a Religion
		Subh-i Azal seems to have remained faithful to the long-term goal of overthrowing the Qajar state by subversion,
		Similarly, Sayyid Yahya Darabi Vahid, while besieged in his house in Yazd, is said to have announced to his followers that 'had I been authorized by Him (the Bab) to wage holy warfare against this people, I would, alone and unaided, have annihilated their forces.
		In a letter to Hajj Mirza Isma'il Dhabih Kashani, he writes: 'it is not permissible to speak concerning the affairs of the world or whatever is connected with it or with its outward leaders.

	The Baha'i Religion :: a brief historical introduction
		Subh al-Azal was eventually exiled to, and died in, Cyprus.
		Subh al-Azal had gone into hiding in Iraq and appears to have urged public dissimulation on the Babis.
		23 Nevertheless Subh al-Azal is generally recognised to have been the main contender, despite the suggestion by supporters of Husayn ‘Ali that this was in order to deflect attention away from the latter during what must have been an extremely precarious time to be publicly identified as a Babi.

	Welcome to God Bless This Mess!: Baha'ism
		There he exerted increasing spiritual influence on the Babi exiles, while that of his half brother, Mirza Yahya (known as Subh-i Azal, "dawn of eternity") declined.
		Mirza Husayn 'AlI Nuri was born into a noble Tehran family that had given several ministers to the Persian court.
		The majority of the Babis accepted him and came to be known as Baha'is. A minority, followers of Subh-i Azal (hence Azalis), pro- voked incidents that impelled the Ottomans to banish the Baha'is (with some Azalis) to Palestine and the Azalis (with some Baha'is) to Cyprus.

	AGF-library
		The news of the challenge was brought by a partisan of Azal then visiting Edirne, Mir Muhammad Mukari of Shiraz to Mirza Muhammad Quli Nuri, Baha'u'llah's brother, who informed him of it.
		Azal's failure to show up, whatever its reasons, appears to have hurt him very badly with the Babi public, and to have led more Babis to side with Baha'u'llah.
		Azal excused himself, saying that it was not possible that day.

	Religious Dissidence and Urban Leadership: Baha'is in Qajar Shiraz and Tehran
		Tehran, on the other hand, was the birthplace of Mirza Husayn `Ali Nuri Bahaullah (1817-1892), the founder of the Bahai religion that developed from Babism, and the sites associated with his life were treasured by his followers.
		Mirza Asad Allah was initially discouraged by the relative disinterest among the other members in committee work, and complained that if he did not call a meeting none was held.
		Mirza Asad Allah writes in his memoirs of 1877-1880 that he secretly called a meeting in his house of eight prominent Bahai elders from Tehran, who began organizing the community's affairs.

		Mirza Mihdi, the "Purest Branch," was very delicate, and my mother allowed herself to be persuaded to leave the little fellow, only two years old, with her grandmother, though the parting with him was very sad.

	Bahai News - The Baha'is of Iran
		But his younger brother and ward, the teenaged Yahya Nuri (entitled Subh-i Azal or Morn of Eternity) was said to have been appointed the Bab's vicar in 1850.
		The Nuri brothers, among the few nobles to have adopted Babism, emerged as the primary focus of authority after the Bab's death.
		By the 1860s, many Babis, dissatisfied with Azal's furtive leadership and disappointed that their religion had gone underground, yearned for some new form of authority.

	Babism
		The other group, which remained "true" Babis were called Azalis, after Nuri's brother Mirza Yahya Nuri Subh-i Azal, who at this time was under Turkish detention on Cyprus.
		Babism did survive the execution of the Bab in 1850, and in 1863, one of Bab's followers, Mirza Husayn Ali Nuri, proclaimed himself the manifestation that Bab had promised, and did with this establish a new religion: Baha'i.
		Religion that started on May 23, 1844 in Shiraz, Persia, when Mirza Ali Muhammad proclaimed to be the Bab ('gate' in Arabic), the gate to divine truth.

	THE CYPRUS EXILES
		Jalal Azal however refuted the commonly-held position that Mirza Hadi Dawlatabadi was the appointed successor to Mirza Yahya as the leader of the Azalis [35] thus indicating the existence of splits among the Azalis.
		Yahya, the son of Muhammad Hasan-i Fata, a leading Azali of Qazvin, that when he went to Cyprus he heard the following from Shaykh `Ali Kaffash Zanjani[20]: His wife was taken into service in Mirza Yahya's household in Cyprus.
		Mirza Yahya's descendants at the present time appear to know little about their family history or religious past and can for all practical purposes be regarded as Turks and Muslims.

	The Primal Point’s Will and Testament
		The disadvantage of relying on the Mustaqyaz version is that Subh-I Azal only quotes certain verses and infers the existence of unquoted verses by writing ‘until it says’ in between the passages.
		Firstly its discovery in 1944 proved that apart from the MS available to Subh-e Azal and the scribe of MMB (Bayani community) at least one other manuscript was in circulation within Baha’i families.
		Therefore the margin of error by subsequent generations of scribes is substantially reduced and the extracts quoted may be closest to the original.

	Baha'u'llah's Book of Certitude and the Sun of Iqan
		For decades, the manuscript original of the Kitab-i Iqan was an heirloom in the family of Haji Mirza Sayyid Muhammad, until, in 1948, his great-granddaughter Fatima Khanum-i Afnan presented it to the Guardian of the Baha'i Faith, Shoghi Effendi (A. Taherzadeh, Revelation, I, 159).
		An alternative suggestion has been made that Baha'u'llah's son Mirza Muhammad-`Ali, who was personally sent by Baha'u'llah to Bombay to transcribe books for publication, was the one in whose hand the undated lithograph was written.
		A facsimile reproduction of the original handlist of questions by Haji Mirza Sayyid Muhammad was published in Muhammad `Ali Fayzi's Kitab-i Khandan-i Afnan Sidra-yi Rahman (Tehran: Mu'assasi-yi Milli-yi Matbu'at-i Amri, 124 B.E. [1970-1]), inserted at p.

	Autobiography and Silence:
		In 1863, Mirza Husayn `Ali Nuri Baha'u'llah had declared himself to a handful of close disciples as the promised one of the Babi religion, and from about 1865 he began making the assertion publicly.
		Mirza Hasan Shirazi was a relative of the Bab, and according to cousins such as Habibu'llah Afnan, he secretly maintained an admiration for the Babi-Baha'i movement, which he claimed he tried to protect from persecution by working behind the scenes.
		Mirza Hasan Shirazi, as a relative of the Bab and of the Baha'i Afnan clan of Shiraz, certainly knew enough to recognize this poem for what it was, and that he did not denounce his student is some evidence for his having at the least no animus against Baha'is.

	Baha'i Faith & Religious Freedom of Conscience
		Mirza Husayn 'Ali Nuri (1817-1892), the founder of the Baha'i faith, built on the protests of Sayyid 'Ali Muhammad Shirazi (1819-1850), his predecessor, who had attacked aristocratic oppression in Qajar Iran and supported interest on loans, more freedom of movement for women, and restrictions on both European merchants and on the official clergy.

		Nuri, scion of a magnate family, joined the Babi religion, taking the name by which he was later known, Baha'u'llah ("glory of God").

	The Bahai Truth
		Originally this title was conferred upon Mirza Yahya Nuri 'Subh-e-Azal', the younger brother of Mirza Husain Ali 'Bahaullah.
		It is pertinent to note that later Mirza Yahya staked his claim to this title and ultimately Bahaullah usurped it from him.
		It is mentioned in the Encyclopaedia of Religion and Ethics under the title 'Bab', that the Bahais called Mirza Ali Mohammed Bab as "Rabbi-ul-Ala" (The Most Elevated Lord).

	Religions of Iran: Bahá'í History
		But Azal proved ineffective as a leader and it was Bahá'u'lláh, over the course of a decade, who assumed the effective leadership and sought to raise the morale of and reorganize the Bábí community both in Baghdad and throughout Iran.
		Bahá'u'lláh's claim to be "He Whom God shall make manifest" superseded Azal's position and the latter refused to accept this.
		As the split between the two became known in Edirne, it was to Bahá'u'lláh that the overwhelming majority of the Bábís turned.

	Babis: Azalis and Two Baha'i Groups
		The Bab appointed Subh-i Azal as his successor, not the Baha’ullah.
		A minority under Mirza Yahya were violently opposed to Baha’u’llah.
		After 13 years, a second faction, Baha’i, was started by al-Azal’s older half-brother Husayn ‘Ali Nuri Baha’ (1817-1892), who 6 years later claimed himself as the Baha’u’llah.

	Azal- Treatise on Kingship
		In this manuscript, Subh-i Azal says that it is permissible for the people to remove a tyrannical king, though he urges that it be done without bloodshed if possible.
		It is important to note, however, that Subh-i Azal does not support republican government under all circumstances.
		Azal thus establishes a mandate for republican revolution in the face of despotism, which recalls that of Thomas Jefferson and Tom Paine as much as Gambetta.

	Book Reviews
		The entries under "AZAL, MIRZA YAHYA" and "MIRZA YAHYA" are one example, compounded by the absence of any cross reference under the title Subh-i-Azal.
		The first, his "atabak" Amir Kabir, was executed on the king's order in 1852, and the second, Mirza Aqa Khan Nuri, was exiled in 1858.
		These include his presence at the Báb's public trial in Tabriz in 1848, the 1852 assassination attempt on the king's life by a group of Bábís and the psychological impact this event had on the king, and the subsequent backlash against the Bábí community.

		Azal's opposition caused eventually the further exile of Bahâ'u'llâh to Akra (Acre) where he will live until his death in 1892, and the Azalîs to Cyprus.
		His claim was opposed by the followers of Azal.
		It was also the period that Bahâ'u'llâh sent letters to the kings and the rulers of "the East and the West", proclaiming his mission and call them to accept.

	‘Irfán Colloquia: 12th session report
		It is true that Mirza Yahya was the Bab's nominee and recognized chief of the Babi community, but he was not His successor or vicegerent.
		The quasi-Babi musings and anti-Baha'i sentiments of Yahya and his Azali supporters are expressed in a multitude of Persian and Arabic writings and a few texts in western languages.
		From 1849-50 Yahya was given elevated titles and a key future role in the religion of the Bab.

	Iranian Millenarianism and Democratic Thought
		Mirza Husayn `Ali Nuri, one of Mirza Buzurg's sons, probably could have still had a political career, but he preferred to reside at the family estate in Takur and study mystical works.
		The Nuri brothers played a low-key role in the early Babi movement, but the Bab increasingly turned to them in his last days, since his first eighteen major disciples were dying in clashes with the state.
		Azal and a few others, however, refused to go along with this plan, and since it required unanimity to have a hope of success, it fell through.
