Today, many innocent people around the world are being oppressed and even killed simply for protesting against the lack of basic human rights.

Personally, I do not wish to share false or misleading information on this website. Therefore, from time to time, I commemorate and publish the memory of those who lost their lives in Iran, brutally killed merely for raising their voices in protest for freedom.

Since Iran is my homeland and I can personally verify the accuracy of related information, I only publish the names of Iranian victims.

However, if you would like the names of other freedom martyrs from different countries to be included here, you may share their details with me through the “Contact Us” section. After verification, they will be published on this website.

Before his execution, Majid Kavousifar had sought asylum at the U.S. Embassy in Abu Dhabi. However, after listening to his request, the embassy officials handed him over to the Emirati police, who returned him to Iran. Once back in Iran, he was executed.

At the moment of his death, with a smile on his face and his hands tied, he waved to the crowd that had gathered to witness the execution. May his soul rest in peace, and may his memory live on forever.

I worked with Jamshid for many years, and despite all our political differences, we were good friends. I still feel his absence deeply and miss him a lot. May his soul rest in peace and his memory live on forever.

It is interesting that in today’s world, the countries producing and selling the most weapons of mass destruction are often the very ones that claim to champion human rights the loudest.

I wish I could hand over my life to someone for a while and say, “For some time, continue in my place.”

When the lawmaker breaks the law, the citizen stays silent.

It is deeply painful to witness a law enforcement officer violating the law, and even more so when you cannot protest, for they wield authority while you are just an ordinary citizen.

There is a Persian proverb that says:
“Politics has no parents.”
In my opinion, the same can be said about many politicians.

It’s almost like a joke when the UN says it fights against racism, yet a country with veto power can make the opinions of all other countries irrelevant.

Nowhere in the world are children taught the constitution, because they’re afraid that people will understand their rights too early.

One of the pains of my life is that I live in a time when slavery is prohibited in every country in the world, and yet there are still people who believe that a book in which slavery is allowed is the word of God.

The Holy Quran

• Surah Muhammad 4: “So when you meet those who disbelieve [in battle], strike their necks until you have subdued them; then bind them firmly. Afterwards, either release them as an act of grace or for ransom…”
• Surah An-Nur 24:33: “And those of your slaves who seek a contract of emancipation—grant it to them if you recognize good in them, and give them from the wealth of Allah which He has bestowed upon you…”

The Bible (New Testament)

• Ephesians 6:5: “Slaves, obey your earthly masters with fear and trembling, in sincerity of heart, as you would Christ.”
• Colossians 3:22: “Slaves, obey your earthly masters in everything; not by way of eye-service, as people-pleasers, but with sincerity of heart and reverence for the Lord.”

The Torah (Old Testament / Tanakh)

• Exodus 21:2: “If you buy a Hebrew servant, he shall serve six years; but in the seventh year he shall go free without paying anything.”
• Leviticus 25:44–46: “As for your male and female slaves whom you may have—you may acquire male and female slaves from the nations around you. You may also leave them as an inheritance to your children after you, to possess as a permanent possession.”
