| He Who is Invoked. A reference to the appearance of the Promised One at the time specified by the Báb. The Báb had set the limit of time for the coming of the Promised One as Mustag̲h̲át̲h̲, the numerical value of which, in the abjad system, is 2001. |
| [BD 166] |
 |
| "He Who is invoked." The cycle of every Divine Dispensation. Specifically,
the time of Mustag̲h̲át̲h̲ is the day of the Latter Resurrection,
i.e. the Advent of Bahá'u'lláh.
(íqán 229; 248). The letters total according to abjad reckoning 2001 -- the limit of time assigned by the Báb for the advent of the Promised
One. With these words of the Báb, Bahá'u'lláh refutes those who claim that the Promised
One would not appear until 2,001: "For none knoweth the time of the Revelation
except God. Whenever it appeareth,
all must acknowledge the Point of Truth, and render thanks unto God."
(SW 157). |

|
| "He Who is invoked"; the numerical value of which has been assigned by the Báb as the limit of time fixed for the advent of the promised Manifestation. |
| [DB 675] |
|
| Lit. "He Who is invoked." By reference to the numerical value of this word, the Báb reveals the ninth year of this Era (A.D. 1853) as the date of Bahá'u'lláh's Manifestation. |
