Navideshahed:
My acquaintance with Fada’iyan-e Islam (Devotees of Islam) and martyr
Nawab Safavi started by the study of supporting newspapers as "Unions"
and "Battle of the people" and their official newspaper: "The
Declaration of Brotherhood" and was completed by receiving a copy of the
book " declaration of Fada’iyan-e Islam (Devotees of Islam) or Handbook
of facts" from martyr Nawab Safavi by the late Hojatoleslam Syed Hashim
Hussain (third person of Fada’iyan-e Islam (Devotees of Islam)) with a
letter....
At that time I was 14-15 years old and lived in Tabriz. After I moved to
Qom, I got acquainted with "Brothers” personally and some kind of
cooperation and consultation began until the issue of "Baghdad Pact" and
Iran’s accession to this imperialist military convention occurred and
it was supposed that they would execute the responsible for this
betrayal, "Alaa Hussein," the prime minister and servant of the king,
and "Mozaffar Zolghadr" took over the execution, but was not successful
in action.
"Alaa" immediately to prove his and his master’s, the king, servanthood
more to the imperialist West, with bandaged head, left for Baghdad, but
at same time, brother martyr Abdolhossein Vahedi along with another
brother, left for Baghdad from Qom – Ahwaz to implement the issued
"decree" in Baghdad.
Martyr Vahedi, the night before traveling to Ahwaz, in Qom, in "Hojatieh
school", roosted in a room next to mine and in the morning went to the
shrine and then left for Ahwaz. But apparently, he was found and
arrested when entering Ahwaz and was transferred to Tehran and in
Tehran, in the office of General Teimour Bakhtiar – the ruthless
imperialist agent – and by him, he was martyrized.
After that martyr Navab Safavi and Mohammad Vahedi, who lived in
Ayatollah Taleghani’s house, according to what Ayatollah Taleghani had
told me: "left house early in the morning and an hour later, agents
poured into Ayatollah Taleghani’s house to arrest brothers, but they did
not find anyone. Finally martyr Navab Safavi and his comrades were
arrested in the house of "Hamid Zolfaghar” and after the spurious
military trial, in the morning of 27 January 1334, they were shot by the
King’s henchman executioners.
Martyr Navab Safavi and his faithful companions, Fada’iyan-e Islam
(Devotees of Islam), were forerunners of establishment of an Islamic
government after Shahrivar, 1320. In this path, they were not only
against the monarchy – dictatorial regime of Pahlavi theoretically, but
in action, instead of wasting time, or wasting even one bullet, and
killing a constable or Zhandram who were typically oppressed people by
tyrant ruling system, participated in the revolutionary execution of
those whose presence or survival could both strengthen the foundations
of the usurper regime and hurt the basis of our sovereignty and
national-Islamic independence and were an impediment on the way to the
foundation of "Allah” government.
The clear and decisive position of Fada’iyan-e Islam (Devotees of Islam)
and their dear leader, martyr Navab Safavi, against Reza Khan and his
son and also our other enemies and their fundamental and critical
measures in their struggle against the traitor ruling class, is
basically not an issue that friends or foes could deny it.
Studying the book of Fada’iyan-e Islam (Devotees of Islam), titled
"declaration of Fada’iyan-e Islam (Devotees of Islam) or Handbook of
facts", which was once published in Aba’an, 1329, and the second time in
Khordad, 1332, is essential and can illuminate the fact that: without
assessing their role in this movement, we cannot achieve an accurate
summary of the continuous history of contemporary Islamic movements and
Muslim nation.
Essentially, the important point that can be observed in the life and
work of Martyr Navab Safavi is this direct combat, without fear of the
king and the despotic monarchy. Quoting sentences from several parts of
this book can illuminate this fact that the Muslim children of this
country did not recognize the despised Pahlavi regime officially and
also they had always fought against it. Please note:
"... Iran, Thanks to the traitor government, is a land of predators ...
The poor is sick, homeless, hungry, and unemployed, and moan of poverty
and hunger and dishonest nobles, dignitaries and thieves of the country
do not pay attention.
"... Worshiping a weak creation called the" king" who is weaker than
most people physically, spiritually and mentally, is illusory and out of
ignorance and stupidity. ... Admiring a person whose name is king or
minister is inappropriate and flattery. These statements, to the king or
president or minister, shall be called the document of ignorance. "
"Our declaration to you, the enemies of Islam and the usurpers of
Islamic government; King, Government and other directors whom we know
well: you traitors, Iran is an Islamic country and you are the thieves
and usurpers who have seized the Islamic government and are ready to run
everyday….”
Studying the history of foundation of Fada’iyan-e Islam (Devotees of
Islam) and the description of their revolutionary fights and
interpreting the text of the book which can introduce our people’s
struggle forerunners to the youth generation require more time and
better facilities that unfortunately, now we lack both because of the
critical situation of the country. Hoping one day we would be able to
publish "Documents of Devotees of Islam Movement ", and pay our respect
to our martyrized brothers who have been ignored by all parties up to
now.
