– Please introduce yourself?
– In the name of Allah, the Compassionate, the Merciful. I am Siyamak Hamedi, the offspring of Ali Hamedi. After 20 years of age, I went to the united States. I have lived there so for. I spent high school period of time in Tehran city. I entered into the army during the sacred defense time. In 1363 S.H. I was hurt in the army in Kurdistan region. That year, I went to Turkey to cure my spinal cord injuries and then I was taken to the United States by my friends and relatives. I continued my education there. After finishing my education in civil engineering course, I ran my engineering office. My father died in 1375 S.H. and I returned to Iran in 1380 S.H. for the first time after leaving Iran. I became aware that time that my mother has turned to Bahaism again.
– Was your mother Baha’i? How did she get married with your father?
– My father was Shia and they conclude a marriage contract based on Islamic one. My grand fathers were Muslims, too. However, my grandmother in my mother side became Baha’i in Shah’s period of time – although her father was Muslim. She had two daughters: My mother and my maternal aunt. My maternal aunt got married with her Baha’i cousin. After marriage, my mother superficially Muslim for the sake of my father, and her sectarian social intercourses had been restricted. My parents were relatives. My father was saying that my mother was really beautiful. Of course, my father didn’t know before marriage that my mother was formally Baha’i. That is, she became Baha’i via her mother before marriage. Whenever needed, my mother says she was Muslim using her Islamic marriage contract and the organization orders her to misuse, it. For example, when she had come to America, I asked her: What did you write for your religion to take passport? She said: Instead of Muslim, I wrote Moblim in order not to hide my belief, too and I took my passport easily!
In short; later on, my younger sister got married with one of the high ranking members of Bahaism cult in Baha’i manner without my father’s satisfaction. So, my mother thought of her thought of Bahaism again. Later on, I realized that in 1363 S.H. my mother and my two sisters had turned to Bahaism proselytized by my maternal aunt and my sister’s husband. For this reason, my parent had religious difference particularly they had divorced seven years of their lifetime.
– Did your parent divorce after your mother became Baha’i?
– When I was not in Iran, my father sought asylum to me due to my mother unkindness. When he became ill, I took him to America to be cured. He has been operated several times and came back to Iran. Those days when my father close was to me, he narrated about early years of their marriage when once he divorced her due to her interest in Baha’i cult, but they continued their marital life just due to the kids. For the last time, I asked my mother to come to America because my father needed her in the last moments of his lifetime. When my mother came, she was welcomed by her Baha’i relatives and supported by the organization in her first trip to America.
– What was your relationship with your mother?
– When my father died in his last trip in 1375 S.H. due to stomach, intestine and bladder cancer in America, I fought my mother severely due to my father’s burial to take my father ID card to bury him based on his will near the greatest Husseiniyeh of Mehdi Shahr. Because my mother had plundered my father’s documents, and will and escaped to Iran helped by the assembly of Bahaism cult in Los Angeles and her relatives.
– How did your sister get married with a Baha’i person although your father wasn’t satisfied?
– My sister escaped with an organizational person and never got married in Islamic manner, but they concluded a Baha’i marriage contract: An organizational marriage to enter her into this cult. After their offspring was born, my father had to accept them although he wasn’t satisfied. Actually, one of my father’s grieves was my sister’s marriage.
– Why did Bahaism try to recruit your family?
After my father’s death, I cared his will very much. This cult never tells the truth and it is a religious terroristic cult rather than being a religious one. Bahaism organization consider wealthy aspect of people to misuse them organizationally especially out of Iran. Due to this aspect, my father had attracted their view. They were searching for wealthy people. My father possessed many lands in Sangsar, Mehdi Shahr and I felt more that the cult was paying attention to my family more due to our finance.
– What is the organization’s purpose to recruit wealthy people? For which aim does the organization spend these properties and wealth?
The Baha’is are recruiting people who are useful for them financially. They are looking for wealthy people to recruit them to expand their organizational jobs.
– What were happened for you and your sister after your father’s death?
– My father made a will and said in the last moments of his lifetime: “O’ my dear Son, consider the Islamic Kindness.” He stressed me not to argue and confront the Bahaism organization men. He thought the Baha’is can be recruited to Islam via kindness and justice. We were influenced by our father’s behaviors since childhood. My younger sister was 16 and my elder sister was I7. My mother and my maternal aunt rejected Muslim suitor and tried to move our family towards Bahaism. As they had elected a Baha’i husband for my elder sister. I was ashamed by my family’s behaviors and social contacts. I took myself aloof of them in order not to be hurt
