The first notice of the Bábi faith that was recorded by a European was the report of Major Rawlinson, the British Consul in Baghdad, concerning the trial of Mulla Aliy-i-Bastami. He wrote to Sir Stratford Canning, the British Ambassador in Istanbul.

He subsequently wrote to Lt-Col Justin Sheil, the British Minister in Tihran on the 16th of January and again to Canning on the 25th of the month. [BBRp4, 83-90]
