Violation of the dead

The government officials in the city of Najafabad , in Isfahan have allocated a certain area on the mountains for Bahais to bury their dead, in the middle of no where, of which Bahais are still thankful. Very recently, as you know, this site allocated to the Bahai people had been desecrated or violated by the fanatic clergy.

I have attached a few photos to see the level of destruction to this area. This cemetery is in the middle of the desert and mountains and the land is very hard and rocky, its access very difficult to get to.


I remember when the Bahai's wanted to dig and bury their dead, they had to do so by digging with their hands, spades, picks and shovels after which their hands were covered with blisters for the hard work.

It is very sad that some people in the close vicinity have machines like bulldozers and/or bobcats but refuse to help or assist Bahai s
The Bahais have had ready made coffins on site to bury loved ones if/when they pass away and very recently these clergy Muslims have gone around and filled these coffins with heavy rocks and dirt which the Bahai friends have to empty out again by hand. They have also blocked entry to the cemetery with large rocks and dirt so as to prevent Bahai entry. Now all the Bahai's have to clear this area again by hand.

It is only through the love of Baha'u'llah that help these people sustain all these hardships with sacrifice and devotion.....
..........in return for their suffering they give in return honey to the souls of their persecutors in silence they indure ...
what a lesson of love sacrifice
my heart and prayers surround you my dearest sisters and brothers of Iran
