The visit of the Báb to Medina marked the concluding stage
of His pilgrimage to Hijáz. From thence He returned to Jaddih, and by way of
the sea regained His native land. He landed at Búshihr nine lunar months after
He had embarked on His pilgrimage from that port. In the same khán [similar to
a caravanserai] which He had previously occupied, He received His friends and
relatives, who had come to greet and welcome Him. (Chapter 8, ‘The
Dawn-Breakers’)
