Hájí Mírzá Haydar-`Alí and six other prominent Bahá'ís were arrested in Cairo (Mansúra) for being Bahá'ís at the instigation of the corrupt Persian consul, Mírzá Husayn Khán-i-Giránmáyih. They were banished to Khartoum, where Haydar-`Alí spent the next 9 years in confinement. [BBR257; BKG250; GBP178, SDH32-66]

This same Mírzá Husayn Khán-i-Giránmáyih, a few months later, tried to exhort money from Mirza Abu'l-Qásim, a man who had been settled in Egypt for a number of years as a merchant. He had been introduced to the Faith by the Bahá'ís of Mansúra. In 1866, shortly after his arrival from Adrianople where he had visited Bahá'u'lláh. [BBR257-264]
