    The first raid took place on the evening of November 3rd, during a gathering at the home of the Razi family to celebrate a Baha’i holiday, Feast of Qudrat. During that raid, Mahmud Razi and Jamal Chupani were arrested. All those present in the gathering were required to provide information about themselves and their immediate family to the authorities.

    On November 6th, the homes of the Shahnazi and Ta`id families were raided and Baha’i materials were confiscated. On November 20th, Shadya Ta`id whose house was raided two weeks prior was arrested along with her mother. The women were taken to a prison in Sari.

    • ]]>     According to Today’s Zaman:

    Today is the Feast of Kalimat in the Bahai faith. Bahais name their 19 months with names of God and words with spiritual meanings.

    The Month of Kalimat starts today in the evening and ends on the evening of July 31. The purpose of the feast is so Bahais can gather together to show hospitality and fellowship and become spiritually renewed for the coming month.

    We hope our Baha’i friends will enjoy this feast.
