Abstract For 20 years Jamál Effendi traveled throughout India and succeeded in converting many people, including notable figures, to the Bahá'í Faith. Jamál Effendi had even more influence in the establishment of the Bahá'í Faith in Burma than in India (the present Burmese community traces its origins to the sojourn of Jamál Effendi and Sayyid Mustafá Rúmí). Jamál Effendi also visited other countries in southeast and central Asia. The author establishes routes and dates for his journeys, although some details remain uncertain. The paper includes a discussion of his techniques for spreading the Bahá'í Faith.
