According to Muhammad Mustafá (p. 111), the following accompanied Táhirih from Khaniqin (on the Persian frontier) to Kirmansháh: Shaykh Sáliḥ-i-Karímí, Shaykh Muhammad-i-Shibl, Shaykh Sulṭán-i-Karbilá’í, Siyyid Ahmad-i-Yazdí, Siyyid Muhammad-i-Bayigání, Siyyid Muhsin-i-Kázimí, Mullá Ibráhím-i-Mahallátí, and about thirty Arab believers. They tarried three days in the village of Karand, where Táhirih fearlessly proclaimed the teachings of the Báb and was highly Revelation. Twelve hundred persons are reported to have volunteered to follow her and do her bidding.
