In the Nasir Al-Din Shah era the Iranian government took an assertive role in relation to Bahrain issue and openly corresponded with the belligerent states and political campaigns while in secret other options and strategies were being mulled. This research is predicated upon a manuscript pertaining to 1852 the text of which is annexed to the article. The findings of this research suggest that some Nasiri agents had devised strategic and logistics plans to counter the crisis in Bahrain and other coterminous territories under Iran’s influence in the Persian Gulf. One of these strategies was the establishment of a powerful naval fleet and direct maritime encounter. However, the findings suggest that the dual policy pursued by Nasir Al-D in Shah on the one hand, and the dysfunctional bureaucracy, as a result of the demise of Amir Kabir on the other hand, and more importantly Iran’s military engagements on its eastern borders (modern day Afghanistan) drove the strategies proposed in the said text towards failure.
