I anledningen af
den glædelige løsladelse af Yusef Nadarkhani samler
vi de nyheder Iran har være repræsenteret med i
KirkenUpdate 2012 - og i øvrigt 4 år tilbage.
Især er det netop Nadarkhani, og forfølgelsen af
ham, det har drejet sig om. Men der er også et par andre
om den kristne kirkes situation generelt i Iran. (Ved nogle af
de ældre virker links'ene ikke, fordi nyheden er taget af

08-09-2012 - Yusef Nadarkhani løsladt fra iransk
fængsel
Religionskonflikt - forfølgelse
Iranian Christian pastor
released from jail
Youcef Nadarkhani, 35, was released
from prison on Saturday and reunited with his family.. Nadarkhani
was arrested in October 2009 for converting at the age of 19 to
Christianity from Islam, his parent's religion. Although he
insisted he was never a practising Muslim, Iran considers the
religion of a child to be that of his father. Those who convert
to other religions risk arrest or even execution for apostasy.

In 2010, Nadarkhani was sentenced to death after being found
guilty of apostasy, a conviction upheld by a supreme court in
2011. Iran's penal code does not have a definitive ruling for
apostasy and the judge often refers to the Sharia law for such
cases.

Marketing Martyrs: Does
Iranian Pastor's Theology Impact Advocacy...
Moeller and
other religious-freedom leaders are split on whether Nadarkhani
is an orthodox or heretical Christian. But they all affirm that
his situation merits advocacy regardless. "We've used
[Nadarkhani] as a bellwether for what's happening to hundreds of
people in Iran," said Moeller. "For us, the issue of faith is not
a theological one. We're not involved in supporting people or
advocating for their freedom only if they believe the right way."
