The author of the Persian bayan himself believed that what he was founding was the religion of Bayan. The book itself has many references to the Bayani faith. It is interesting that Bahaism which claims to be the succeeding Bayan appears in Wikipedia as 'Bahai Faith' but the religion preceding it appears in Wilipedia as 'Babism'. If Sayyid Ali Muhammad of Shiraz belied he was the founder of the Bayani faith then we should give him the credit of being known as the founder of Bayani faith. In his book of '5 Paths' (Panj Shan), Sayyid Ali Muhamad of Shiraz refers to the first five years of his mission as having the title Bab only: "You named me after that which has a numerical value of five (i.e. BAB) since you had set four Gates for me; Then, after these years, you made me manifest over all things by the name Qaim and elevated the mention of your self in the year five with glory. In the sixth year, you mentioned the name of your self, your glorious and mighty name." Panj Shan (5 Grades, Professor Browne Collection F.15(19)=BBF.2 University of Cambridge. In other words he took the title of Bab during the first 5 years then the Qaem and then being the manifestation of God. Bayan was written by him during the period that he considered himself as manifestation of God.
