Return of Bahá’u’lláh from the Soleimani Mountains to Baghdad

 

Fame of a man in the mountains of Kurdistan, had reached Baghdad. Bahá’u’lláh’s family realized this man is Bahá’u’lláh and pleads for his return. He does return to Baghdad on this day and begins to rebuild the Bábi community. The community grows in size and respect.

His majesty was living there with special cloth and a dervish kashkool (a beggar’s bowl) and used the fake name, ‘Darvish Muhammad’. He studied irfan and alchemy. After two years in the Soleimani mountains, when living their also became an issue, he was expelled out of the monastery. Therefore he decided to come back to his brother Mirzá Yahyá Núri Subh-i-Azal.
Subh-i-Azal gave permission to him to come back and he (Bahá’u’lláh) came back to Baghdad. Bahá’u’lláh says:

“There came the summons bidding Us return whence We came. Surrendering Our will to His, We submitted to His injunction.”

At 1856, Bahá’u’lláh returned to the Bábis at Baghdad. What’s unanswered here is that if a person who is the Manifestation of God or a Prophet of God, shouldn’t he then have divine knowledge? If so then what was the reason that Mirzá Husayn-Ali Núri joined the Sufis and learnt irfan from them?

Also if he was the manifestation of God and had a divine rank, then he also had guardianship over his brother. Then why did he ask his brother’s approval to return to Baghdad?
