| Abstract | This Trilogy presents the lives of Shaykh Salmán, Nabíl-i-A’zam and Mullá Ṣádiq, three personages closely related to the early years of the Bahá’í Faith in Persia. Shaykh Salmán was Bahá’u’lláh’s on-foot courier travelling annually between Persia and the Holy Land. Nabíl-i-A’zam was the chronicler who carefully documented events of the Heroic Age of the Bahá'í Faith and a talented poet. Mullá Ṣádiq stood out as the one who travelled broadly disseminating the new Faith with wisdom, dignity and grace. The first was illiterate, while the second was a self-made scholar who started out in life as a shepherd, whereas Mullá Ṣádiq came from an educated family of means. |
