Persecution of Bábís and execution of the Báb
Amir Kabir repressed the followers of Bábism, the predecessor of the Bahá'í Faith.
He suppressed the Babi upheavals of 1848-51 and personally ordered the execution of the Seven Martyrs of Tehran and of the execution of the movement's founder, the Báb. Because Bábism was seducing the poor people and publishing the lies against true beliefs in God religion. His work saved people and country from obliquity.
