Nasrin Barkhan: "We were a group that all of us had direct contact with Mr. Mehdi Farodi; the meetings, trainings and courses we had, all of these were done in Mr. Farodi's house.

For an instance, we used to spread some of the Imam's announcements here and there; we went to the villages and did some propaganda with Maryam Farodi and one of the other children; we talked with the villagers. Because we believed that the masses of the people should be informed; we thought that the villagers are more suffering and deprived and more susceptible, so we decided to use the space that exists in the villages. Of course, we didn't just leave, we collected a lot of clothes and took them there to help them. I don't remember the exact villages now, maybe one of them was near to Ferdous. The villagers were very accepting, very kind. We didn't even need to enter their house with anything in our hands, as soon as they saw a stranger enter and greet them, they welcomed them. We sat and chatted very easily. We, who did not analyze politics for them, chatted: "What do you have, dear Mother?" How do you support yourself? from where? So why like this? "In the form of a sympathetic conversation, we would tell them that your conditions should not be like this, you can demand more than these, you have the right to more than these, and at the same time, we realized that it was very interesting for them; It means that maybe this kind of encounters would happen less with them."[1]
