Will and Testament of The Báb

The Báb

published in Lights of Irfán

Volume 8, p. 392

Wilmette, IL: Irfan Colloquia, 2007


Note: While this document is commonly referred to as the "Will and Testament of The Báb," the Universal House of Justice notes:
It is important to call attention to the fact that, while in some quarters this Tablet has become known as the Will and Testament of the Báb, the Research Department has, to date, found no explicit evidence to suggest that the Báb, Himself, designated the Tablet as such. Indeed, from a perusal of the attached material, […] will see that the Tablet bears no title.
See the previous appendix of Lights 8.
