Mullá Husayn-i-Bushru'i (1813–1849) (Arabic: ملا حسين البشروئي), entitled Janáb-i-Bábu'l-Báb (Gate of the Gate), was the first Letter of the Living in the Bábí movement.
Born in 1813, he was for nine years a student of Siyyid Kázim and for five a follower of the Báb. He died at the Battle of Fort Shaykh Tabarsi, on February 2, 1849.
Ruhollah Mehrabkhani's account of the life of Mulla Husayn in Spanish (Mulla Husayn: el primero que creyó en el Báb) and English (Mulla Husayn: Disciple at Dawn) is a famous popular narrative.
His title of Bábu'l-Báb was given him by the Báb
