This earhly life shall pass and the soul will wing to its Creator God. Blessed is the soul who is unburdened by acts of hate and can soar into the next realm to the company of the beloveds of God. Mr. Roshan by enduring this horrific injustice has shown the sterling nature of his soul and the just God assuredly will compensates him with infinite rewards. Our prayers are with you dear friend.

We admire your courage and your perseverance. The forces of tyranny and darkness last but for a day, but the forces of light, love and servitude which you and the Baha'is in the Cradle of the Baha'i Faith, Iran exhibit and symbolize last forever! Your sacrifices will bring light and honor to your country even though your oppressors bring it only shame and dishonor. But ignorance will soon disappear and your sacrifices will be honored throughout history everywhere! Dear Mr. Faydu’llah Roshan,

Be assured of our prayers for your protection. We admire your courage and your perseverance. The forces of tyranny and darkness last but for a day, but the forces of light, love and servitude which you and the Baha’is in the Cradle of the Baha’i Faith, Iran exhibit and symbolize last forever! Your sacrifices will bring light and honor to your country even though your oppressors bring it only shame and dishonor. But ignorance will soon disappear and your sacrifices will be honored throughout history everywhere!

His life has now inspired many hearts in our country. His resignation in the face of this regrettable, unjust punishment will now be the source of inspiration for increased activity, more dedicated resolve and the establishment sooner than otherwise would be the case of the activities in the Baha'i Faith. Our love and prayers go out to the honored Mr. Roshan; our thanks to him for his inspiring us to greater activity through his resignation to this - by world standards - illegal treatment. Perhaps we could have a picture of our much respected Mr. Roshan to inspire our prayers and activities in the coming years.

Sharing the fate of your beloveds. His holiness the Bab was imprisoned and eventually drank the cup of martyrdom. Blessed Beauty Baha'ullah too was sent to prison and was forced to exile. What an honor! No doubt you are among His chosen ones. Your heroism shines so bright that fades away the gloom of the injustices of the ignorants and the heedless. Let us remember them in our prayers: O Lord forgive them for they know not, and guide them for they too are your children. Dear Mr. Roshan, what an honor! Sharing the fate of your beloveds.
