Siyyid Muhammad’s machinations

Siyyid Muhammad had meanwhile settled in Karbilá, and was busily engaged, with Mírzá Yaḥyá as his lever, in kindling dissensions and in deranging the life of the exiles and of the community that had gathered about them. 

- Shoghi Effendi  (‘God Passes By’, chapter 7)
