The Báb declared Táhirih one of the Letters of the Living

Mírzá Muhammad-‘Alí [Táhirih’s brother-in-law] eventually met and recognised the Báb and conveyed to Him both the letter and the message of Táhirih. The Báb forthwith declared her one of the Letters of the Living. 
(Chapter 3, ‘The Dawn-Breakers’)
