Sheikh Muhammad El Damirtchi was a Bahá’í scholar and mystic. He was one of the early followers of the Babí Movement since the days of Bahá’u’lláh.

This photograph was found in the pages of The Bahá’í World with no other content. His poise, demeanor and he being a mystic drew us to recollect the days of Bahá’u’lláh when he wrote to several mystics to answer their questions. Some of those answers can be found in The Seven Valleys and The Four Valleys.

May he rest in peace.
