Ibn Nadim writes that Mani had a crooked leg. When Mani was four years old, he joined his father and grew up among Mughtsela.

At the age of twelve, Mani received his first revelation and an angel called Altum (Syriac) suzugos (Greek), Narjmig (Middle Persian meaning twin) spoke to him and asked him to leave the Moghtsala sect and He revealed secrets to him. Biruni wrote the history of this revelation when Mani was thirteen years old and in the year 539 Seleucid - which corresponds to the second year of Ardashir's reign.
