 * Keep - I just updated the page with several references and some text cleanup. Still needs some content expansion off the references, and a name change after AFD closes. Cuñado ☼ - Talk  22:54, 9 May 2021 (UTC)


 * Strong Keep - I updated the page with two more academic sources, one from Chehabi and one from Iranica. Chehabi says : "Mustafa Baghdadi, a prominent Bahai of Beirut who had moved there from Baghdad". Iranica says : "Moḥammad-Moṣṭafā Baḡdādi (b. Baghdad, 1254/1838; d. Iskenderun, 27 Šawwāl 1328/1 November 1910; Figure 1) was an eminent early Arab Bahai and apostle of Bahā-Allāh. From childhood Moḥammad-Moṣṭafā accompanied his father in his activities and waited upon Qorrat-al-ʿAyn, transmitting her messages. In Qazvin he served as a courier between her and his father, delivering his father’s questions to her and transmitting to him her answers (Baḡdādi, Resāla, p. 119). During Bahāʾ-Allāh’s exile in Baghdad and before his declaration in 1280/1863, Moḥammad-Moṣṭafā was among the few who recognized him as man yoẓheroho’llāh (He whom God shall make manifest) foretold by the Bāb and became his devoted followers. ʿAbd-al-Bahāʾ designated him as “the leader among the friends in Iraq” (1971, pp. 131-32). Renowned for his strength and courage, many Bahais took shelter with him whenever they were harassed or in trouble." Tarikhejtemai (talk) 04:48, 10 May 2021 (UTC)
