Refusing to comply with the wishes of the royal envoys, the
Russian Minister requested Bahá’u’lláh to proceed to the home of the Grand
Vizir [Mírzá Áqá Khán], to whom he formally communicated his wish that the
safety of the Trust the Russian government was delivering into his keeping
should be insured. This purpose, however, was not achieved because of the Grand
Vizir’s apprehension that he might forfeit his position if he extended to the
Accused the protection demanded for Him. - Shoghi Effendi (‘God Passes By’)
