Jalál Hakímán
Jalál Hakímán (c. 1921 - May 1, 1983) was a Persian Bahá’í who was martyred in the wake of the 1979 Revolution in Iran.
Background[edit]
Hakímán studied literature, English, and psychology as a student and became a professional writer. He also worked for the Persian Ministry of Health as a translator. He never married and after retiring he devoted himself to writing a series of books about the history of civilization and a dissertation about dreams.[1]
In October 1982 Hakímán was arrested in Isfahán because he was a Bahá’í and on May 1, 1983, he was executed for his religious beliefs.[1] His brother, Rahmatu’lláh, was also martyred the following year.[2]
