Siyyid Kázim continued the work of Shaykh Ahmad
…Shaykh Ahmad bade him [Siyyid Kázim] farewell, urged him to
face valiantly the trials that must needs afflict him, and committed him to the
care of God. [Shaykh Ahmad went to Mecca] In Karbilá, Siyyid Kázim devoted
himself to the work initiated by his master, expounded his teachings, defended
his Cause, and answered whatever questions perplexed the minds of his
disciples.
