Eyewitness accounts record the remarkable events surrounding the execution of the Bab. The army jailers suspended the Bab and one of his young followers by ropes from the top of a wall. A firing squad of 750 Armenian Christian soldiers lined up facing them. The order to fire was given. The rifles made a deafening roar and black smoke filled the entire area. When the smoke cleared the Bab's companion stood by the wall, unhurt. The Bab had disappeared. Searchers found him in his room calmly dictating to his secretary. The original firing squad was so shaken by what had happened that they refused to continue. Many believed that they had attempted to kill a holy man and now feared the wrath of God. Officials quickly brought together a squad of Muslim marksmen to carry out the execution. This time the soldiers did not miss and the Bab was killed.

Hello @AimanAbir18plus, thank you for contributing to the article. It is my understanding that the image you added is generally agreed not to be an image of the Bab. It is most likely Kazim Rashti, although I've seen arguments that it could be Quddús as well. If you believe it is an image of the Bab, you'd need to provide a reliable source that affirms that, and there'd need to be discussion here about whether that is a reliable source and weighty enough to outweigh contrary sources. —penultimate_supper 🚀talk21:11, 23 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
