abstract noteBahāʼism is a movement based on the Ithnā 'Ashariyya branch of the Shī'ā and arose from within Islam. The first phase of the history of Bahāʼism, which consists of the basic phases, is Bābism. Bahāʼism, claiming to be a new and independent religion, asserts that Bābism, which constitutes its first phase, is also a religion. Bābism is a movement that began in 1260/1844 by a Shī'ite merchant named 'Ali Muḥammad. He claimed to be the bâb (gate) of the twelfth imām of Ithnā 'Ashariyya. The objective of this study is to demonstrate, through the first call of the Bāb, that in the early period, Bābism emerged as an Ithnā 'Ashari movement, rather than an independent religion. The determination that Bābism originated as a Shī'ite movement rather than a new religion is essential in assessing the religious legitimacy of Bahāʼism, which was founded on Bābism. The study focuses on the background of 'Ali Muḥammad's claim to be the bāb, his initial call, and his gradual evolution from bāb, ḳāʼim, and prophet. This study attempts to prove its hypothesis by using scholarly works on Bābism/Bahāʼism and the writings of Bāb, Bahāʼ Allāh, and other Bahāʼī leaders. Although 'Ali Muḥammad claimed to be a prophet towards the end of his life, it is historically accurate to state that he began his invitation by calling himself the bāb of the Ithnā 'Ashari imām. Besides the Bahāʼīs'claim that Bābism was a religion from the beginning is contradicted by historical data. This study has been prepared by scientific research and publication ethics. N.B.: The author of this article does not quote the Báb's own words regarding the nature of His evolving claims, nor note the claim to revelation inherent in the Qayyúmu'l-Asmá itself and its imitation and reworking of the Qur'an and the Qur'an's language.
