The calamity of unveiling in Iran is an anti-culture event against Islam and Muslim people of Iran which was approved and conducted in Iran on Day 17, 1314 S.H. cooperated with the deviant cult of Bahaism which was related to Israel, but it was cancelled attempted by scholars and Muslim people of Iran.
Unveiling which was announced by Reza Khan in 1313 S.H. was as a result of his trip to Turkey. During his trip, be figured out that changing cloths is needed for achieving development having western modern model. So, he decided for a law to change men and women’s cloths. He forced men to wear cheapo cap and women to unveil. The important note is that Baha’ism was of the first group to fight openly against veiling. One of 12 principles of Baha’ism is the equality between men and women.
During Pahlavi regime which Bahaism, the Zionistic cult possessed an active field fought against Islam in various fields, the members of the deviant cult of Bahaism preached unveiling in the Iranian Islamic community and Muslim people to execute its plans to fight Islam. During Qajar dynasty, they tried to provide the fields for inducing western lifestyle and behavioral methods. When Reza Khan gained power, the presence of Baha’is and Missioners in various systems of the government became more public.
Mass media tools and media such as the press, books, theater, cinema and etc. played the most important role.
Ehsan Yar Shater, a Baha’i related to Shah court who served the Zionistic assembly for years against Iran and Islam confessed about providing facilities for immoral behaviors and preaching western lifestyle by cinema and media.
Anyway unveiling would be happened in Iran; but it lasted… when poets have written poetry blaming unveiling and movies have shown unveiled woman and her presence in society as positive, the community is ready to accept such order to some extent… “
Imam Khomeini (P.H.) warned about the danger of Bahaism influence to be the enemy of Islam and preaching western lifestyle to the then rulers:
” Proselytizing system of television belong to a hateful it is minority (Bahaism). As if it is going to be progressed across the country. Its owner ( Habib Sabet Pasal) has dominated on the economy of the country. Pepsi Cola Company is a spying center. They are going to display previous and then women on Day 17th. It is good for sirs to report to their central offices not to perk the ceremony of 17th of Day more than what it is! Baha’ism and Pepsi Cola company are spying systems for Israel… “[۱]
So, Imam Khomeini (P.H.) stressed On this issue that the Colonialists have come for dominance again and they aimed women first. He stated: “Because they paid attention that women have played a key role in Constitution movement and they can make people come to fighting field, so they referred to women first.[2]
As a matter of fact, it should be said that one of the main elements in policymaking in the cultural field during damned Pahlavi era is the deviant cult of Baha’ism which tried to proceed its aims using Pahlavi government tools. One of the main aims of Baha’ism was aiming family center in Iran particularly women. It has tried to make the Iranian youth to be sank in sedition whirlpool and to destroy family basis.
