Baha’ism And The Pahlavi Regime
The sinister Pahlavi regime which came to power with the patronage of British colonialism and continued its vicious life through the support of the criminal U.S. , had always been referred to as an anti-popular, anti-Islamic regime serving the interests of imperialism and Zionism. During the Pahlavi regime, the Baha’is mostly belonged to the wealthy class of the society and it was clear for all that not only the Baha’is were being supported by the regime but in fact were ruling over the country themselves. The deposed Pahlavi regime had even taken a humble stand towards the Baha’is and although their activities were against the constitution since it had only stipulated enforcement of Islamic rules, the Shah (king) would treat them as other religious minorities and in some cases he would give priority to their affairs rather than those related to the Muslims.
“Amir Abbas Hoveydaâ€
This reality would not be forgotten that Amir Abbas Hoveyda, a Baha’i-Zionist agent, ruled over the affairs for thirteen years as the prime minister of a Muslim country. Hoveyda’s father, Mirza Habibullah Einolmolk, was Abdul Baha’s writer and steward but after a while joined the Foreign Ministry and was commissioned to propagate Baha’ism in Arab countries.
“Edward Granville Brownâ€
On Hoveyda’s father, who had been previously known as Mohammad Reza Shirazi, Edward Brown has written: “Mohammad Reza Shirazi was one of Bahaullah’s confidants who, after Bahaullah, had the responsibility of safeguarding the secrets of Baha’ism.’
In 1920, Einolmolk’s son was born and he requested Abbas Afandi (Abdul Baha) to let him call his son after him and later added ‘Amir’ to the beginning thus, the son was called Amir Abbas.
