English language. doi: 10.1386/bsr.17.133/7 The Brutal Slashing to Death of Dr Berjis By Nasser Mohajer Translated by Ahang Rabbani1 Abstract Keywords A wealth of literature has attested to the recrudescence of state- and clerical- Sulayman Berjis sponsored religious intolerance and persecution of the Iranian Baha’i religious Ayatollah Burujirdi minority since the more than three decades of the Iranian Islamic revolution Kashan in 1979. Persecution during the Pahlavi regime is more sparsely documented. ‘Abdu’l-Karim Turbati The following is an annotated translation of an article by Nasser Mohajer of the Fada’iyan-i Islam grim circumstances surrounding the brutal killing of Baha’i physician Sulayman Navvab Safavi Berjis (1897–1950) by a gang of religious fanatics and the uncivil indifference and abortive trial of justice that followed. Translator’s foreword Historical background Throughout its history, the Baha’i community of Iran has undergone repeated cycles of persecution of varying intensity.2 The Baha’is of Iran have never enjoyed full liberty to practise their religion, and have suffered concentrated and widespread economic and social exclusion. Countless Baha’is have been executed, thousands have suffered arbitrary imprison- ment, and many smaller Baha’i communities in Iran have experienced pogroms. Another recurring aspect of anti-Baha’i campaigns has been the confiscation and destruction of Baha’i property, including holy sites, cemeteries, personal property, and community institutions. In Shiraz, the house occupied by the Bab, one of the Baha’i community’s most sacred religious icons, and a site of obligatory pilgrimage for future Baha’is, has been demolished on several occasions, and was finally erased from exist- ence in 1979 by agents of the country’s Islamic Republic.

  • Part Ten: the Qajars- from Muhammad Khan to Muzarffar Al
    PART TEN THn aAlARs: FRoM MuHAMMAD KgAN To MuaAFFAR AL-DrN SrraH (IT94-1907 c.n.) CHnprBn T rn'ENTY Fall of the Cradle of Freedom Innx-which in the shining age of Cyrus the Great had promulgated the first proclamation of freedom in the world-after going through a period of ups and downs, reached the point where it had been transformed into a dark cavern of contumacy and selfishness; its pride became its shame. During the Qajar period, human rights in Iran took a precipitous dive. The various forms of torture which were adopted are indicative of the bloodthirstiness of the rulers of the day. Ary courageous, dynamic statesman like Qa'im Maqam Farahani or Amir Kabir who sought the prosperity of Iran was sentenced to death. The pseudo-mullahs, with their erroneous inter- pretations of divine law, considered themselves absolute rulers. In towns and villages, each established his own absolute power base. Apart from the few great, distinguished clerics who put an end to this corrupt system, the country was in the hands of pseudo-mullahs who vied with the Qajars in tyranny, and in order to bring the kings under their sway, they observed no distinction between religion and politics. During this period, the clerics divided the Muslim population of Iran into two groups: mujtaftids and muqallids. A mujtahid was a person versed in Shi'ijurisprudence, and a muqallidwas any person who was not a mujtahld. Kings and governors were also classified according to this simple taxonomy: as they were not mujtahids, they had to be muqalfids and obey the fatwas (religious edicts) of the mujtahids.

  • Urban Underground Development an Overview of Historical Underground
    Sustainable Development Urban underground development; an overview of historical underground cities in Iran M. Montazerolhodjah1, M. Pourjafar2,*, A. Taghvaee3 Received: November 2014, Accepted: December 2014 Abstract The increasing rate of urbanization and rate of population growth over the 20th century has led to various problems such as traffic congestion, air pollution, and lack of open and green spaces that have affected the cities and their citizen's life. This condition has led to increasing demands for more land use, homes, and work places, more public transport and mass transit systems and modern infrastructure, so new approaches must be found to better utilize space available. Considered use of underground space creates new methods for solving these challenges. The urban underground spaces have great untapped potentials. If these potentials are managed correctly, it would chip in considerably to the urban sustainable development. Nevertheless seeking of spaces and shelter within the earth is no new idea, man and animal alike have exploited the protective and insulative properties of the soil long before recorded history. During the history of communities have existed in areas all over the world including Iran, Turkey, Egypt, Ethiopia, China, North Africa, and the American Southwest, to name a few. Some of the best examples of man’s symbiotic relationship with nature are Nushabad in Kashan, Sāmen in Malayer and Kariz in Kish Island. These underground cities and Constructions offer many opportunities and lessons for underground development in contemporary cities. This study aims to discuss the ancient settlements of Nushabad, Sāmen and Kariz for their unique and creative underground space use and also explore the potential of developing underground spaces in order to achieving sustainable development .
