The Báb was the founder of a religion known as the Bábí Faith. Bahá'ís consider him to be the precursor of Bahá'u'lláh, and that he came mainly to prepare people for the coming of Bahá'u'lláh.

The Bab was the first of the Twin Manifestations of God who appeared in Persia. He proclaimed that His mission was to prepare the way for the coming of someone "greater" than He - the "Promised One" of all the world's sacred texts. After seven years of persecution by the Persian and Ottoman regimes, the Bab was martyred in 1850.
