letter from Yazdgird 3(632 AD - 651 AD)
The date in which this letter has been written is after the Battle of Ghadesiyeh. As you know, a natural disaster, a massive sand storm blown on Persian troops & practically blinded them & took their battle vision. the sand storm directly blown on their front & caused the loss of this battle. Later on Muslim Khalif mentioned that Allah sent the massive Sand Storm in Persian Faces, so they lost the battle, Allah was the protector of Muslim against Ajams (what Arabs call Persians).
Battle of Ghadesiyeh did not just cost us a great loss due to a natural disaster, yet it also cost us the life of our greatest Persian Hero, Commander in Chief of Persian Army, General Arteshbod "Rostam-e Farokhzad." Tazis killed Rostam in this battle. Rostam & his squad fought until the last drop of their blood & at the end even after he lost his sword, he fought Arabs with bare hand & his shield, Rostam & his selected squad killed as many Tazi as they could, yet finally it was destiny for our hero to die for Iran. Tazi savages rushed & attacked him in all directions & killed that great Persian soul, Ahura Bless his soul, Rostam was the symbol of Persian Empire & Iranian Glory.
Battle of al-Qādisiyyah :
The first day of Battle ended with Persian advances and the Arab force appeared as though it would succumb to the much larger Sassanid army. In particular, the latter's war elephants terrified the Arab cavalry, and succeeded in creating confusion among the Arab fighters. By the third day of battle, Arab veterans of the Syrian campaign (being conducted nearly simultaneously) arrived on the scene and reinforced the Arab army. In addition, a clever trick -- whereby the Arab horses were decorated in costume -- succeeded in frightening the Persian elephants. When an Arab warrior succeeded in slaying the lead elephant, the rest fled into the rear, trampling numerous Persian fighters. The Arab Muslims continued to advance their attacks during the night (called the "Night of Clangour").

At dawn of the fourth day, a sandstorm broke out -- blowing sand in the Persians' faces. Quickly, the tide turned and the Sassanid centre gave way, particularly with the help of Arab archers. Rostam, who had been commanding his force from that location, killed and beheaded. Arabs announced the deed, displaying Rostam's head before the fighters, Seeing their respected leader's head dangling before them, the Persian fighters lost nerve and begin to flee. Most of the Sassanid fighters lost their lives in this melée, with a small number announcing their conversion to Islam.
The Islamic conquest of Persia (633--656) led to the end of the Sassanid Empire and the eventual decline of the Zoroastrian religion in Persia. However, the achievements of the previous Persian civilizations were not lost, but were to a great extent absorbed by the new Islamic polity.

Many historians have long offered the idea that Persia, on the verge of the Arab invasion, was a society in decline and decay and thus it embraced the invading Arab armies with open arms. This view is not accepted however. Some authors have for example used mostly Arab sources to illustrate that "contrary to the claims , Iranians in fact fought long and hard against the invading Arabs. This view further more holds that once politically conquered, the Persians began engaging in a culture war of resistance and succeeded in forcing their own ways on the victorious Arabs.[

  • Although Zoroastrian worship one God (Ahr Mazha) but they recognize the Evil God (Ahriman)...this is not pure monotheism..you believe in 2 gods but worhip the good God...nothing monotheistis to this...similar to Christianity..3 gods in One...illogical..Zoroastianism is whithering ...and the Flame of the Magi fail to lit when Muhammad was born...what a miracle..

  • @dunkenus : well again someone say something about Zoroastrianism without knowing much about it, with fast jumping to conclusion i guess you must be Muslim .

    any way for your information Ahriman from Pahlavi language mean the person without any light, and nothing to do with God (Ahura Mazda).

    But the Abrahamic religions took this concept from Zoroastrianism and call it "Satan" "Shaitan" in Arabic.

    In Zoroastrianism "Angra Mainyu" or "Ahriman", only refer to the man's spirit "destructive spirit"

  • @dunkenus : Mohammad was born like many other children and only you Muslims invent some "hocus pocus" superstitions story's about him and call it miracle !!!,HOW FUNNY! He was like any other man with many good sides in Mecca(when he didn't have power) and many ugly sides (when he got power over Arabs in Medina).

    please stop making a god from him The other thing is, The flame of God still shining in our hart, and it's not only flame of Magi and nobody can extinguish it but our self .

    we don't believe ahriman was also god, that myth, there was sect of zoroastrianism called zurvanism believed something like it but they were all converted

    zoroastrians believe in one god, he is the ultimate creator, he is fundamentally benevolent, and he wants more humans to take his side in helping good prevail over evil in our universe.

    ahriman is basically an evil entity who also wants victory but he is not omniscient as a God, although very powerful relatively speaking.

  • @Chamath5A I don't know if you were told yet... but i just watched this in english. It is amazing how little has changed over so much time.

  • @dunkenus it's not 3 gods in one for christianity.. lol.. it's one god manifested himself in 3 persons.. 1x1x1=??? strict monotheism is illogical because it makes god unapproachable and remote

  • Islam is a devilish religion. What a pity that the Great Persian Empire fell into the evil hands of these barbarian pirates. Drop a nuke on Mekka and be done with it once and for all.

  • Yazdgerd made him eat it! May peace be upon him, what powerful, moving words to a coward made strong by numbers- too bad Omar couldn't even read the letter, being an illiterate...

    May Iran be free again, and may Yazdgerd III's name and legacy be exalted once more!

  • It's a shame that everything that was told in the letter to the arabs are even today ignored, it is very known that muslims are blind because if they defy the teachings of islam they will be punished, muslims can't confess that everything that was told in the letter are similar to what happens today in the teachings of islam.

  • iam sri lankan so i dont understand persian can you pleaseeeeeeee translate this to english

  • @327372 e

    mohammadd couldnt read and write and he was arab guider. no wonder arabs are disgrace to humanity because their prophet had zero education

  • @Eleusha Mohammad was not god. he was a prophet, a messenger of god.

  • @dunkenus similar to Christianity..3 gods in One...illogical <-- it's one 3 in one, it's one in 3.. no wonder you think it's illogical, you got the concept wrong
