Mirza Ali Muhammad (born in 1819; executed in 1850) of Shiraz, Iran, attended Sayyid Kazim's lectures in Karbala for up to two years. After the latter died, he declared himself to be the Bab or "gate" to the Twelfth Imam, who disappeared in 873. Later, he claimed to be the Twelfth Imam. Finally, he declared his own prophethood and superiority over Muhammad, Jesus, and the rest of the Abrahamic messengers. Leaders of the Babi movement that he initiated sought a radical fulfillment of certain ideas of Shaykh Ahmad and Sayyid Kazim in the socio-political sphere. They launched a rebellion against the monarchy in Iran, espousing ideas remarkably similar in content to those of the Hegelian left. After the execution of the Bab and the suppression of the insurrection, a new leader, Mirza Husayn Ali Nuri, emerged from the Babi ranks. Suppressing all elements of militancy in the movement, he superimposed a universalist doctrine on the top of Shaykhi teachings, left Islam and Shi'ism altogether, took the title Baha'u'llah and initiated what is today known as Bahaism (Baha'i Faith).
The jurisprudents who tried and sentenced the Bab to death for apostasy and corruption were disciples and students of disciples of Shaykh Ahmad. Their leaders included the jurisprudent Mulla Muhammad Mamaqani (d. 1851-52) of Tabriz and the philosopher Mirza Hasan Gawhar of Karbala.
