October 1844 CE

The Báb is publicly proclaimed to be the promised one of Islam (the Qá'im, or Mahdi) on October 23, 1844.

He is also considered to be simultaneously the return of Elijah, John the Baptist, and the "Ushídar-Máh" referred to in the Zoroastrian scriptures.

He announces to the world the coming of "He whom God shall make manifest".

He is considered the forerunner of Bahá'u'lláh—the founder of the Bahá'í Faith—whose claims include being the return of Jesus.
