The Báb wrote to Hájí Muhammad-Karím Khán [a former disciple
of Siyyid Kázim] ... and invited him to acknowledge his authority. This the
latter not only entirely refused to do, but further wrote a treatise against
the Báb and his doctrines.” (P. 910.) “At least two such treatises were written
by Hájí Muhammad-Karím Khán. One of them was composed at a later date than
this, probably after the Báb’s death, at the special request of Násiri’d-Dín
Sháh. Of these two one has been printed, and is called ‘the crushing of
falsehood’ (Izhaqu’l-Batil).” (Footnote 1, p. 910.) (Journal of the Royal
Asiatic Society, 1889, article 12.)
