Mid-1852: Bahá’u’lláh’s return to Tihrán
From the very beginning, Áqá Khán-i-Núrí wanted to bring about some kind of reconciliation between the government of which he was now the head, and Bahá’u’lláh, whom he regarded as the leading disciple of the Báb. Nabíl notes:
He [Áqá Khán-i-Núrí] sent Him [Bahá’u’lláh] a warm letter requesting Him to return to Tihrán and expressing his eagerness to meet Him. Ere the receipt of that letter, Bahá’u’lláh had already decided to leave ‘Iráq for Persia. 30_ACT15
