Baha'i human rights concert to take place in New Zealand

MANUKAU counsellor Aryana Khadem is helping organise a concert and information evening on Saturday to raise awareness of the victimisation of the Baha’is in Iran. Mrs Khadem, who works with migrant women, is herself an immigrant from Iran. She left her homeland more than 20 years ago, following the disappearance of her father and the execution of her mother for being members of the Baha’i Faith, Iran’s largest religious minority. Her father was never found. The concert MC is Chief Human Rights Commissioner Rosslyn Noonan.

The essence of all that We have revealed for thee is Justice, is for man to free himself from idle fancy and imitation, discern with the eye of oneness His glorious handiwork, and look into all things with a searching eye.
