Haj Abbas Nilforushan

Martyr Abbas Has Returned Home

When Haj Ali Zahedi was martyred, it was essential to quickly introduce a replacement. The choice was Haj Abbas Nilforushan, who was a close companion, partner, and support of Seyed Hassan Nasrollah. When the Supreme Leader said, “Whatever Seyed Hassan Nasrollah’s opinion is,” Haj Abbas replied, “It is the command of the Master. I must go,” and he went. The lump in his throat gives weight to the beautiful words he speaks with his Isfahani accent as he says, “Since I was six years old, I have wished to destroy Israel.” He was hopeful for martyrdom in this cause, which was granted through God’s grace.
