Abdul Baha: “Ali Muhammad Shirazi revolted when he was 25. It is certain among Shiite tribes that he hasn’t learned and studied in any schools. All people of Shiraz will confess.[1]”
However, it will be better for the Shiite tribe to be silent in this regard and just Babis and Baha’is answer the claim:
The first person who rejected Abdul Baha’s claim is Ali Muhammad Bab himself. In the book Arabic Bayan, Ali Muhammad Shirazi has confessed about his learning when he was a child and when he was being hit by his teachers due to being stupid.[2] He has also confessed about his learning in youth. He has been trained by the second leader of Sheikism Seyyed Kazem Rashti[3]. The famous Baha’i authors and proselytizers have also confessed that Ali Muhammad Bab Shirazi was educated. They are as follows: Nabil Zarandi[4], Abul Fadhl Golpaygani[5], Ishraq Khawari[6], Abdul Hussein Ayati[7], Ahmad Yazdani[8], and Ali Akbar Foroutan[9].
