The spread of Shaykh Ahmad’s followers during the lifetime of Siyyid Kázim

During the lifetime of Siyyid Kázim, the doctrine of the Shaykhís spread over all Persia so well that in the Province of ‘Iráq alone there were more than a hundred thousand murids.” (Journal Asiatique, 1866, tome 7, p. 463.)
