He shall, if it be His Will , bless thy throne with one who will rule with justice, who will gather together the flock of God which the wolves have scattered. Such a ruler will, with joy and gladness, turn his face towards, and extend his favours unto, the people of Baha. He indeed is accounted in the sight of God as a jewel among men. Upon him rest forever the glory of God and the glory of all that dwell in the kingdom of His revelation. Rejoice with great joy, for God hath made thee "the Dayspring of His light", inasmuch as within thee was born the Manifestation of His Glory. Be thou glad for this name that hath been conferred upon thee- a name through which both earth and heaven have been illumined. Erelong will the state of affairs within thee be changed, and the reins of power fall into the hands of the people. Verily, thy Lord is the All-Knowing. His authority embraceth all things. Rest thou assured in the gracious favour of thy Lord. The eye of His loving-kindness shall everlastingly be directed towards thee. The day is approaching when thy agitation will have been transmuted into peace and quiet calm. Thus hath it been decreed in the wondrous Book." - Baha'u'llah “Let nothing grieve thee, O Land of Ta (Tihran), for God hath chosen thee to be the source of the joy of all mankind.

As an American Bahai in Los Angeles it gives me great joy to know that there are hearts like yours out there willing to acknowledge and right the wrongs that were unjustly heaped upon my Bahai family in Iran...the Bahai community's spiritual forefathers endured the hardships of persecution with the FAITH and conviction that the day would soon appear where the unjust treatment they recieved would be appropiately acknowledged and reconciled by the peoples of Iran. Peace & Blessings be upon you all! We are ONE!

It reminds me of the courage some Christians demonstrated when their Jewish neighbors were being persecuted in times of the Holocaust. You are demonstrating that same human spirit by coming to the defense of the Baha'is. You can be sure your endeavors will be blessed and rewarded in heaven... and I pray to our common Creator - whether known as Allah, God, Jehovah or the Great Spirit, that your work will reap benefits here on earth, as well.

The actions undertaken by those of you who have had the sincere courage to speak out against the inhuman treatment of Bahá’ís through pubic domain is therefore a significant contribution to this task. Not only have you shown your commitment to respect the religious rights of minorities, you have shown the integrity of Islam and the courage of true Muslims. May the Prophet, Peace be Unto Him, wash away your shame, protect you and your families and allow the very best qualities that reside in all Muslims to shine through your positive example. All human progress transpires through individuals with confident beliefs who begin to respect the same qualities in others. In the end, Allah judges us all. In this respect all humans are absolutely equal, only humans have the ability to think otherwise. Heartfelt appreciations for this noble venture, Andrew Clarke, UK As-Salāmu `Alaykum,

May God bless you all and bless all those in Iran who are good, decent and God-loving people, whom I do not believe endorse the slaughter of an entire religious minority, even while they may not agree with it. You are brave individuals. Your names will be recorded for the ages. Thank you all for putting your lives on the line, as well as those of your families, especially if they still live in Iran.

All the dark memories of being beaten, afraid, criticized and insulted as a child in small town of Salmas Iran is lightened through such kind gesture by those whose greatness and human conscious is touched by the injustices done in the name of the Creator. I look forward to a day when the noble people of Iran will not be divided and controlled by those who promote hatred and tension. RPH
