     Bahaismiran:

After entering into Karbala city and participating at Seyyed Kazem Rashti's class, Dolgorukov; the great Russian spy studied people and identified Ali Muhammad Bab and became busy educating him.

     One of the Colonialist's plan for making creed and cult is creating difficulties and obstacles inside their made creed and cult in order for that creed to be engaged with its inner problem and not to be an obstacle and difficulty for the Colonialism.

     Dolgorukov was thinking of this idea lest Sheikis create difficulties for the Colonialism and the Russian government in the future posing popular plan of the forth pillar.

     For this reason and defeating the power, Shiekis decided to make a creed having the same plan and patterns and in order to defeat the false power of Sheikism as Sheikis mention Baha'ism as a stigma for their cult today.

     After numorous struggles, Dolgorukov could make Ali Muhammad Bab ready to claim for Imam of the Time. However, the big problem was that young Ali Muhammad didn’t possess the conditions for being Imam of the Time. He said to the Russian spy: My name isn’t Mahdi. How can we solve this problem and Dolgorukov said to him: There is no problem not to be solved. I call you Mahdi.[1]

     Anyway, Ali Muhammad didn’t dare to claim. Dolgorukov explains the adventure so: In order to encourage him to dare to claim, I went to Baghdad city and found some bottles of pure wine. I caused him to drink for several nights. I gradually inculcated him some sentences while he was drunk[2] and I said to him: I will provide for being the gate and being Imam of the Time.[3]

     They had close relationships with each other to such an extent that exceeded beyond pleasure. Prince Dolgorukov even provided Ali Muhammad's sexual instinct.[4] Ali Muhammad could claim for being deputy and gate for Imam of the Time and at last being Imam of the time via Dolgorukov's struggles.

     Dolgorukov dispatched Ali Muhammad to Iran and he remained in Karbala. After participating at Seyyed Kazem Rashti's class on May, 1844 A.D. he rumored that Imam of the Time has emerged and the very young Seyyed participated at Rashti's class was the promised Mahdi of Shiites.[5]

     Nevertheless; later on, cult makers realized that participating at classes and learning sciences aren’t coincided with Imamate science. Years later, Abdul Baha wrote in the book Mofawezat: "The Excellency the highest revolted for the faith when he was 25 and you as Shiites are generally certain that he wasn’t educated in any school by anybody else.[6]"

     While according to Bab's writings and historians, Ali Muhammad was busy educating in Shiraz city in Sheikh Abed Shirazi's classes who was one of the followers of Sheikh Ahmad Ehsaee[7].

     Nabil Zarandi[8] and Asadullah Mazandarani[9] are of people who have confessed that Ali Muhammad was busy learning and writing Arabic, Persian and calculus and common sciences after his father's death.[10]

    Late Abdul Hussein Ayati who was one of the proselytizers of Baha'ism and turned against Baha'ism after observing numerous contradictions in Baha'ism and wrote the book Kashful Hiyal to reject Baha'ism wrote in his book narrating from Seyyed Jawad Karbalaee: "In the house, I met his (Ali Muhammad's) maternal uncle when he came back from school, he carried a handful of papers. I asked: What are these, Sir? He answered back quietly and politely: These are my homework.[11]"

     It is interesting to be noted that Ali Muhammad Bab has answered to this misgiving and has mentioned Seyyed Kazem Rashti as a teacher at presence of whom he had been humble[12]. He also commemorates a master called Mullah Sadeq Khorasani at the presence of whom he had learned common Arabic literature.[13]

     Mirza Muhammad Tonekaboni who is contemporary with Ali Muhammad Bab was present in Seyyed Kazem Rashti's classes in Karbala city has written about Ali Muhammad: He was claiming for Babism. He was saying: I am the Special deputy of Imam of the Time and he was Hajj Kazem Rashti's student…[14]"
