Sara Louiza, lady Blomfield (1859- 1939) was born in Irland and was the founder and host for the Baha’i community of London. She was the famous architect, Sir Arthur Blomfield’s wife. Contrary to many ladies living at the same time with her who were trying hard in advanced and thriving communities. She was spending most of her time and money for religious public utility activities and humane services. She was the fearless defender of women’s rights in the elections and was also the defender of kids, prisoners and even animals’ rights. Accepting Bahaullah’s teachings by lady Blomfield in 1907 was a turning point for her searching for the spiritual truths. She is considered as the first Baha’i in Irland country. Lady Blomfield has been the member of national spiritual assembly of the British Baha’is and arranged many conferences during this period of time to introduce the Baha’i faith. She supported the artistic activities of the Baha’i disciples in the British community including London theater. She was continually writing letters for the Baha’i community members and people across the world. Her daughter, Mary, who was entitled to Parvin by Abdul Baha was serving the spiritual assembly of England for 5 years. Her book called “the chosen highway is mentioning several cases of the cooperation the Baha’is and the British army to defeat the Ottoman one and to occupy the Palestinian lands.

On December, 9, 1917 A.D. Juresalem was occupied by England. The war was happened after Abdul Baha’i trips to the west and his relationships with the British and American assemblies.

Abdul Baha supported England during the war between the Ottoman and the British governments. He gave necessary information about the Palestinian lands to the British troops. He also paid attention to the requirements of the British troops and tried hard to provide their requirements. So, the Baha’is played an important role providing provisions for the aggressive army of England to overcome the Muslim Ottoman government.

In her book confirmed by the Baha’i leaders, Lady Blomfield mentions a part of Abdul Baha’s preparatory role for the aggressive British troops in occupying the Palestinian regions. In this book, she mentions Hussein Ali Baha and his relatives’ properties and lands: “The Excellency Abdul Baha was up and down buying lands in various regions such as Asefieh and Daieyeh near Heyfa and bestowed them to Ziaullah and Badiullah, his two younger brothers according to Bahaullah’s order. Other lands in Samireh, Naqib and Adasiyeh villages near Jordan were purchased.[1]”

The wheat from the mentioned lands was a great wealth for the Baha’i heads. So, they were keeping it as a strategic crop enormously in the stored built for this reason.

After explaining these events, Blomfield writes: “A great amount of wheat has been stored in the stores… when the British troops entered into Heyfa, the supply department of their army encountered problems concerning provision. The relavant officer referred to Abdul Baha to consult. He said: we have wheat. The above-mentioned officer asked surprizingly: Do you have wheat to give to the British army too? Abdul Baha answered: I have wheat to give to the British army too[2].” In this way, the provisions of the aggressive British army were provided.

Indeed, the Baha’ism leaders indicated that they were unique in hypocracy and weren’t afraid of betraying a government like the Ottoman[3] which were being praised one time. The Baha’is supported the aggressive British army to continue war despite of their slogans shouted for peace.
