Meanwhile, the statement reported that 94 students who belong to the Bahai religious movement have been “deprived of education” after the universities learned about their beliefs.
Iran considers Bahais, who advocate the unity of all religions, to be apostate and the sect has none of the rights enjoyed by minority Christians, Jews, and Zoroastrians in the Islamic republic.

Baha’i students in Iran still deprived of their education
The Middle East Times features a report that highlights Iran’s crackdown on labor activists. Iran’s Nobel Peace Prize winner Shirin Ebadi, through her human rights center, expresses deep concerns about the increasing civil rights violations within Iran. Later in the report Baha’i rights abuses are also mentioned:

The thought of denying education to people who belong to the Baha’i Faith in Iran is repugnant. The UN Human Rights Commission / Council and the Universal Declaration of Human Rights were established to avoid this type of arbitrary, prejudicial, and discriminatory actions by any government.
Supporters of human rights in Iran, like Shirin Ebadi, are risking a lot for the rights of others much like your The Muslim Network for Baha’i Rights. No words of appreciation are adequate to describe your noble cause.

Conspiracy-theory and swear words are not good arguments for depriving people of their human rights. The writers may have some issues that are not addressed, but to heap insults and fabricate conspiracies are not in accordance with the teachings of any divine religion. The great Faith of Islam deserves better representation!

It is said that no act of kindness ever goes unpunished. And it seems to me that the kinder the act, the harsher the punishment. You folks are rendering a great service in bringing healing to the badly ailing world of people fighting people. And your reward? Profanity and false accusations from, of all people, those who sully the name of Islam by calling themselves Muslims. Muhammad was asked, “What is a Muslim?” Reportedly he replied, “Al-muslimo man salama-ul-naas men yadeho va lesaneho.” A Muslim is he who keeps people at peace from his hand and his tongue. Therefore, according to the prophet, these profane violent persons do not qualify as Muslims.

Thank you Dr. Khalil A. Khavari for your thoughtful comments. As an American, I confess My ignorance of Muhammad and Islam. I do not understand where all the hate and fear comes from. My Brother is a Sufi, He tells me that It was Islam that brought the Christians out of ingnorant stupor of the “dark Ages”. Why then, since, I am told of the true Islam is one of education and undrstanding, does the fear, hate and lack of true Brotherhood come from. Is it the cause of the clergy of Christians and Muslims to educate the followers of Muhammad and Christ to fear and hate those that only want to beleave in God as the One and True God…and what of progressive Manifestations of God?
“There is no God, Save God” This is truth weather it be said by a Muslim, a Jew, a Follower of Christ or a Bahai.
Thank you for your time and for your leadership to a world of Unity and Peace.
