Shahbanu Farah Pahlavi, in a message addressed to the people of Iran, declared Friday, January 23rd, as a "national mourning" day in memory of the great massacre of the national revolution. Shahbanu Farah Pahlavi wrote: "My dear compatriots, the atrocities of the past days in our wounded homeland were crimes against humanity. The first phase of this great Iranian uprising plunged the world into shock and disbelief with a frenzied massacre. The blood shed by thousands of Iranians cannot be trampled upon. These valiant children of the homeland sacrificed their lives for Iran and poured their blood at the roots of freedom."

Shahbanu Farah Pahlavi continued: "You, the great nation of Iran, have lovingly called me 'Mother of Iran.' Today, Mother Iran mourns her fallen children and, along with other mothers of the martyrs who have even been denied the right to grieve, I declare Friday, January 23rd, 1404, as a national mourning day in memory of this great massacre. I ask all free Iranians, wherever they are in the world, to rise at 12 noon local time and observe a minute of silence to honor the fallen children of Iran. During this important minute, let us think, reflect, and pledge to ourselves that we will not rest until the freedom of our Aryan homeland is achieved."

Shahbanu Farah Pahlavi concluded: "I urge all Persian-language media around the world to cooperate fully in broadcasting, reminding, and executing this message. Rest assured that light will triumph over darkness."
