The establishment of trustee foundation

During Reza Khan’s kingdom, one of the grandsons of Mirza Hussein Ali Nouri Kajouri (Baha) called Shoqi Effendi became the head of Baha’i cult and became Abbas Effendi’s successor entitled Shoqi Rabbani. This person who had lived in England since childhood and been trained for the Colonial aims established special organization to manage Baha’is endowments as his first measures. This organization was called “trustee foundation”. Before establishing the foundation, all Baha’i dedications and cash was in the hands of different Baha’i people and each person exploited it according to his/her taste.

Establishing the “trusted foundation”, it had full authority over the properties, endowments and cash. A board of directors was also established by “the national coterie of Iranian Baha’i” confirmed by Shoqi Rabbani. The people in charge of the foundation were responsible to exploit the money in order to preach the deviant cult of Baha’ism and to perform several programs to attack Islam specially Shiism as of their important religious duties.

Following issuing the order for establishing the “trustee foundation”, “Shoqi Rabbani” asked those who had kept the endowments and properties to give them to the foundation. The order was quickly executed.

According to the published documents, one of the Baha’i capitalists called Qolam Reza Amin Amin all of his wealth and properties amount to billion Tumans as a will.

Qolam Reza Amin Amin’s will is as follows which is registered in June 9, 1324 in 175 pages No. 26821.

“What I, Qolam Reza Amin Amin, have belong to the Excellency Shoqi Rabbani and the Excellency Mirza Agha Vali Allah Varaqa is my representative in charge of selling my properties and offering to Shoqi Rabbani.”

After Qolam Reza Amin Amin’s death, his executer of his will Valiullah Varaqa offered all of Amin Amin’s properties and heritages to Shoqi Effendi except for a house located in district 4, Tehran Entezam-al-Saltaneh street belonged to his wife and seven offspring.

Late Fazlullah Mohtadi who was one of Baha’is freed from Baha’ism writes about Qolam Reza Amin Amin’s specifications:

“He was hard-hearted. If a poor person referred to him, he would say him to carry loads or would say him to lay on a corner to die after 3 days. He was too highly sexed…” (Mohtadi Fazlullah, Sobhi’s memories regarding Baha’ism, Soroush publication, page 67)
