The Fate of the Point’s Writings

9.   A Review of Baha’s Claim on Fate of the Point’s Writings
Baha states that “I have never read these books [i.e. the transcriptions made by Subh-i-Azal and Mirza Wahhab Khurassani], nor, with my own eyes contemplated the works of the Point!” Therefore, Baha’s allegation that Subh-i-Azal has tampered with the BAB’s writings is devoid of foundation and a deliberate falsehood.

As the Bahai accounts above referred to, Subh-i-Azal left Baghdad before Baha, of which fact Baha himself was fully aware.

Baha’s statement that “The BAB’s writings remained in the hands of these two persons [i.e. Subh-i-Azal and Mirza Wahhab Khurassani] and that Subh-i-Azal had abandoned the BAB’s writings at Baghdad” is contradicted by Mirza Jawad who says that “Subh-i-Azal left the BAB’s writings in the house of Baha,” which was not unattended.

Whether “they were left in house of Baha” as stated by Mirza Jawad, or “the BAB’s writings were entrusted to Baha for safe custody,” as stated by Subh-i-Azal, they were in fact in the house of Baha at Baghdad.

Baha had full access to them at all times, and he could have them published in Turkey, instead of sending to have them published in Iran, as alleged, where the BABi faith was proscribed, to which fact Baha was fully aware.

What has happened to the Point's writings, which were brought to the most holy seat, Acre, where they were allegedly to be deciphered and transcribed for preservation for the benefit of mankind, free from taint of brand & corruption, as alleged by Baha?
