I'm currently using the following command, which I can run in a terminal, to make a Zathura instance visit a specific page of the current document.

The 10 in the last argument represents 0-indexed page number (i.e. page no. 11)

$ dbus-send --type="method_call" --dest=org.pwmt.zathura.PID-25400 /org/pwmt/zathura org.pwmt.zathura.GotoPage uint32:10

After I execute this command, Zathura becomes the active window in my windows manager. I don't want this to happen.

I'm wondering if this has to do with my windows manager or Zathura. I don't see anything relevant in page_set in zathura.c (link to file), so everything seems to indicate that it might be my windows manager. Could anyone confirm this and provide some refernces?

Solved! Set the configuration option dbus-raise-window to false.
