A Traveler's Narrative Written to Illustrate the Episode of the Báb

by ʻAbdu'l-Bahá

Mírzá Yaḥyá’s title was Subh-i-Azal, the Morning of Eternity. Bahá’u’lláh, in this connection, cites Amos 4:12–13, which says that God “maketh the morning darkness.” Cf. Bahá’u’lláh, Epistle to the Son of the Wolf (Wilmette, Ill.: Bahá’í Publishing Trust, 1953), p. 146. See Shoghi Effendi, God Passes By (Wilmette, Ill.: Bahá’í Publishing Trust, 1974), p.114, for other titles of Mírzá Yaḥyá.

Cf. Qur’án 27:22.
