A large number of the followers of Shaykh Ahmad, who had
heard of my arrival, had gathered in the Masjid-i-Ílkhání to meet me. Faithful
to the directions of my newly found Beloved, I immediately set myself to carry
out His wishes. As I began to organise my classes and perform my devotions, a
vast concourse of people gathered gradually about me. Ecclesiastical
dignitaries and officials of the city also came to visit me. They marvelled at
the spirit which my lectures revealed, unaware that the Source whence my
knowledge flowed was none other than He whose advent they, for the most part,
were eagerly awaiting.’”
- Mulla Husayn (Quoted by Nabil in chapter 3 of ‘The
Dawn-Breakers’)
