Majmú`ih-yi Áthár


Compilation of the Writings of the Báb, including a number of Tafsírs such as those of Basmala, Surah Wa’l-`Asr, Sarah Tawhid, etc. Also contains treatises written in explanation of certain terms. Following consultation with the Research Department at the Bahá’í World Centre, it has been determined that the item from page 32 (p. 17 left of PDF) to 37 (p. 20 right of PDF) was not written by the Báb but that it is an explanation of the Arabic part of the Tafsir-i Surat al-Hamd where the Bab discusses the construction of seven concentric circles.
