During The Battle
Over the weeks that followed, more and more Bábís joined the fort with numbers rising to perhaps six-hundred. Most notable of the late arrivals is Quddús who joined after being released by Tabarsí Bábís on October 20.
Bahá'ís see the battle, which was led by Mullá Husayn, as a heroic stand against oppressive government forces that lasted several months.

Famous quotes containing the word battle:
“The Battle of Waterloo is a work of art with tension and drama with its unceasing change from hope to fear and back again, change which suddenly dissolves into a moment of extreme catastrophe, a model tragedy because the fate of Europe was determined within this individual fate.”
—Stefan Zweig (18811942)
