| Additional Commentary - The Mansion of 'Abdu’lláh Páshá (shown on the map on p. 318 of King of Glory) was the home of 'Abdu'l-Bahá. This photograph of the prison was taken from the back of the Master’s house. The reference to "the highest building in 'Akká may be to an oft repeated saying that there is a tradition in Islam, that the "Promised One" would be imprisoned in the highest building in 'Akká. Photographs of the Mansion of 'Abdu'lláh Páshá can be found bound between pages 252 and 253 of The Covenant of Bahá’u’lláh by Adib Taherzadeh. The building was renovated and restored by Riḍván 1983. An article with photographs can be found in The Bahá’í World, Vol. 18, between pages 77 and 80. |
