Shaykh Ahmad al-Ahsa'i (founder of the Shaykhi school, 1753–1826)

Shaykh Ahmad b. Zayn al-Din al-Ahsa'i, founder of the Shaykhi school within Twelver Shi'ism. Born at al-Ahsa' in Arabia in 1166/1753, he was licensed to teach by Shi'i muditahids in Iraq, lived in Bahrain, Basra and Yazd, and was accused of unorthodoxy over his views on resurrection. He died near Medina on pilgrimage in 1241/1826, aged about 75. His school was led by Sayyid Kazim Rashti, and from it grew the Babi movement.
