Call ye to mind the shaykh whose name was Muhammad-Hasan
Shaykh Muhammad-Hasan, one of the leading exponents of Shí­'ih Islám, rejected the Báb. The author of voluminous writings on Shí­'ih jurisprudence, he is reported to have died around 1850.
Nabí­l, in The Dawn-Breakers, describes the encounter that took place in Najaf between Mullá ‘Alí­y-i-Bastámí­, one of the Letters of the Living, and Shaykh Muhammad-Hasan. During the meeting, Mullá ‘Alí­ announced the manifestation of the Báb and extolled the potency of His Revelation. At the instigation of the shaykh, Mullá ‘Alí­ was forthwith pronounced a heretic and expelled from the assembly. He was put on trial, transported to Istanbul, and condemned to hard labour.
