| Muḥammad S̲h̲áh |
|
| Pronunciation: mo-ham-mad-shaw |
|
| S̲h̲áh of Persia (reigned 1834-1848). After putting to death the Grand Visier, the Qá'im Maqám, who raised him to the throne (for which act the S̲h̲áh was chastised by Bahá'u'lláh in the Kalimát-i-Firdawsíyyih), the S̲h̲áh raised his tutor Ḥájí Mírzá Áqásí to that office. During his reign he left much of the government in Áqásí's hands, to the exterme detriment of the country. |
| Muḥammad S̲h̲áh sent Siyyid Yaḥyáy-i-Dárábí (later known as Vaḥíd) to investigate the claims of the Báb, whereupon the latter became a fervent Bábí. The S̲h̲áh summoned the Báb to the capital but allowed the Grand Visier to order instead that the Báb be imprisoned in Máh-kú, thus preventing the meeting. Muḥammad S̲h̲áh died in 1848. |
