Rabbi Mullah Eliyahu, of Bushire, is recorded together with Eliyahu of Bagdad as having been baptised at Baghdad in 1852. The father of Eliyahu of Baghdad had lost his occupation among the Jewish community on account of that; and Rabbi Eliyahu afterwards accompanied Stern on his journey to Mosul and Kurdistan.
