\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0Supporting Hojabr<\/a> Yazdani by the Baha\u2019ism organization extensively in economic activities course and gaining great wealth caused him to help the central organization of Bahaism in Iran in various occasions variously and enormously and in the universal house of justice in Israel.<\/strong><\/h3>\n

He was over and over acknowledged by them.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 For example; on Aban 1354 S.H., Hojabr helped 6 million dollars with the universal organization of Bahaism. Yazdani’s helps was so exciting for Bora Kavlin, the representative of the universal house of justice that he says about visiting with Yazdani:<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 “On the second day of my arrival, Hojabr came to Nonahalan company to visit me. I said to him that the Iranian disciples must provide 7 million dollars more; in addition to helping the downing place of mention of God in India and repairing Abdullah Pasha’s house about which I spoke in the meetings.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 In this meeting, he helped two million dollars for Abdullah Pasha’s house and for the downing place of mention of Gad in<\/strong><\/p>\n

India.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 An informal meeting was held in Mr. Hojabr Yazdani’s house which was considered as the best meeting which was ever held. Nearly 40 people had participated at the meeting from Sangsar and they helped 23000 dollars. Mr. Hojab Yazdani said he was read to supply 7 million dollars as the rest.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 I said to him it is better not to do it cos some disciples are eager to help. He just helped 6 million dollars.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Mr. Hojabr Yazdani thinks he is ready to be sacrificed on the path of God’s faith [Bahaism] and is ready to serve the Blessed Faith. His motive in his deeds is the divine kindness although his deeds are not right due to his educations.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 To me, he is merited to serve. I said to him that although he possessed power and influence very much, but he must be balanced in applying that power and influence and be careful with the Islamic scholars. He obeyed.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 He said he is ready to pay the expenses of 200 Baha\u2019i instructors in India although he has financial problems for building his factories.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 In 1357 S.H., the national assembly of the Iranian Baha\u2019is thanked Hojabr for his 2-million-Tuman help with the Bahaism organization.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 As stated before, Hojabr’s financial aids to the Baha\u2019i assemblies were too much that he was over and over acknowledged and thanked by the universal house of justice and was invited to visit the tombs and centers of the deviant cult of Bahaism in Israel.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Also, he was invited to participate at spiritual intensiveness meetings, too. The remarkable note is that the public and Shias of the country ware tired of the increasing influence of Hojabr, but the Baha\u2019is were happy.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The happiness of the spiritual assembly of the Baha\u2019is of Shazand (Arak) due to purchasing hand sugar company of Shazand by Hojabr Yazdani was of the examples of this reality.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The assembly of the Baha’is of Tehran city asked Hojab Yazdani to reconstruct Haziratul Gods of Tehran city in 1353 S.H. It indicates the importance of Hojabr’s position among the Baha\u2019is.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Hojabr\u2019s end<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 In summer 1357 S.H., Hojabr Yazdani was arrested and imprisoned in Qasr prison during field marshal Azhari government on charge of faking possession of general properties illegally including 400 hectares of governmental lands in Ardestan, Yazd city, assisting group besting ended in Jahanbakhsh Anhari’s death and withdrawing untimely check in the Melli Bank, Hafiz branch (Hajabr Yazdani, narrated by SAVAK documents, p.426). However, which cattle-man can gain such a legendry wealth without being supported by high-ranking officials?<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Ehsan Naraghi (Farah’s counselor) says about Hojabr dated 1357\/06\/04:<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 “All people know that who has made Hojabr great. Hojabr has said: I have a father called general Ayadi [the special physician of the Shah] and I have a brother called general Nasiri [SAVAK head] and I have a servant called Mansour Rowhani…\u201d.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 At dusk on Bahman 21, 1357 S.H., Hojabr Yazdani escaped from Qasr prison accompanied by Moharrari, the then chairman of the organization of prisons following opening prison doors and went to Latin America. After a while, he became busy with animal husbandry in Costa Rica along with senator Ali Rezaee, the known capitalist and the owner of Navard and pipe company in Ahvaz<\/a> <\/span>city.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 After the Islamic Revolution, his properties were confiscated.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Till his death, Hoja Yazdani was living in San Jose, Costa Rica.<\/strong><\/p>\n
