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:
“Whose kiss
stings and stills;
your kiss was stale, satiate and pale
beside his,
who commands battles,
who kills
when the battle delays.”
—Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)
