After creating riots in the country by the name of Ali Muhammad Shirazi (the leader of Babism cult), late Amir the great command Bab to be executed to end the civil wars[1]. However, according to the non-Baha’i sources, the dead body of Ali Muhammad Shirazi (entitled Bab) was eaten by the predators. So, we read in the book “Haqayequl Akhbar Naseri”:

“Several groups of villains were made ready. They aimed (Bab) and Shot. His unclean body was thrown out of the city to be eaten by the beasts.[2]”

Nevertheless, it is said in the Baha’i books that Bab’s dead body and one of his companions executed with him were transferred to the square out of the city while they were mixed due to extreme shootings. In the second midnight, Hajj Soleyman Khan who was one of the followers of Bab along with Hajj Allah Yar succeeded to transfer the dead body to silk-weaving factory belonged to Hajj Ahmad Milani Babi. The next day, they put the dead body into a wooden box and transferred it to a safe place (Hassan holy shrine). After nearly 60 years, he carried to Heyfa to be buried at a known place called the highest position.[3]

However, Azalis’s viewpoint is different from the Baha’is. They believe that his dead body was thrown in the square or out of the city for two nights and days. Then, the soldiers buried him in a safe place. Next, several Bab’s followers took out his dead body and wrapped into a while silk cloth and brought it to Sobhi Azal based on Bab’s will. Sobhi Azal buried him into a grave in hidden manner.[4]Consequently, according to Azalis his grave is in Ma’soum holy Shrine in Tehran city.[5] So, it is considered as a holy place for the Azalis.

Abdul Hussein Ayati narrated from Sobhi Azal that according to Bab’s secret will he has been buried in front of Shah Abdul Azim’s holy Shrine. After 30 years, the Baha’is cleaved his grave and took his dead body.[6]

Nevertheless, the following notes are necessary to be mentioned to criticized and investigate the Babis and Baha’is claim:

1)   Hajj Ahmad Milani as the person who has hidden Bab’s dead body has been supported by the Czar Russian Emperor confessed by the book Kawakebuddoriah.[7] Thus, why do the Russian agents consider themselves as obliged to preserve and protect Bab’s dead body?!

2)   Baha’is believe Ali Muhammad Bab Shirazi was shot by many bullets; So Bab’s body and his companion were mixed with each other[8]; while according to reliable sources of Azaliz, he was shot by three bullets.[9]

3)   If we assume Baha’is narration concerning the transferring Bab’s dead body from Tehran, this action will be against Bab’s will and even the Baha’ism teachings. Because according to his will in the book “Bayan”, he must be buried in Mecca or Medina having a tomb with 95 mirror doors for people to pray there[10]. Also, according to the book Aqdas text, transferring the dead body mustn’t be lasted more than an hour:

 "حَرَمَ عَلَیکُم نقل المَیت ازید مِن مسافةِ ساعةِ فی المَدینة ادفنوه بالروح و الریحان

فی مَکانٍ قریب"

“It is illegitimate for you to transfer a dead body to a place where is more than an hour far from the city. Bury it happily in a convenient place.[11]”

4)   As if Azlis and Baha’is are going to gain legitimacy for themselves by Bab’s works and speech to reject their rivals.
