Exerpts from the Letters that Some Baha'is Wrote from Prison in the Early 1980's
«Perhaps it is for the good of the Cause of God that at this point in time a few should be imprisoned and some even to attain the high rank of martyrs, for the liberation of the Baha’i community from the claws of the enemies requires sacrifice on the part of a few of the followers of Baha’u’llah. Therefore, should it be decreed that this humble creature be as a mere point in the great circle of the Cause it would be the greatest honor for him and his family. I am not sad, therefore, but happy and proud.» The last letter of Mr. Sattár Khushkú of Shiraz, written from prison before his execution on April 30, 1981 )
