Babism) The Shrine of the Bab on Mount Carmel, Haifa, Israel. Babism, the faith, or sect, of the followers of the Bab, developed into the Baha'i faith. Religious movement founded during the 1840s by Mirza Ali Muhammad (‘the Bab’). An offshoot of Islam, it differs mainly in the belief that Muhammad was not the last of the prophets. The movement split into two groups after the death of the Bab; Baha'u'llah, the leader of one of these groups, founded the Baha'i faith. How to thank TFD for its existence?
