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.
