Good that it is posted here so more can pray for him.
Iranian Jews have one of the most cultured Jewish communities in existence. My heart goes out to those who still toil under that monstrous regime. The Iranian Jews I know here, are among the kindest and most wonderful human beings I have ever met, and I only assume that the same extends to our Jewish brothers and sisters in that country. Nathaniel Ben Tziona, you are not alone.

The rabbi himself lives in pure mesiras nefesh. His hands are tied ! Even more so from political climate now .

Did it occur to you that he might be here trying to help?
In general a Rabbi can’t just override a court sentence, never mind in an antisemitic regime

Hashem has to help!

This is a VERIFIED STORY! please have this man and his family in mind when lighting candles. The community is suffering!

The correct name is
May 17, 2024 12:49 am

ARVIN NETANEL BEN SONIA.
So I’ve seen it in another post and so it looks like in the sign of the above picture in this article.
Maybe to be safe, have in mind both name versions when Davening.
May Hashem save him and may he protect every single Jew from harm!

The name for Tehillim is
Arvin Netanel ben Siona

A post has been circulating to recite chapter 13 in Tehillim, 13 Times.

Please daven and keep this young man in mind, give Tzedaka and do acts of kindness in his Zechus to be spared and set free.

Only Israel

Only Israel can, with H-shed’s help, do this.

Hashem can send his salvation through anyone or anything he wishes

This administration
May 17, 2024 5:12 am

ALL of this is due to the current administration’s showing the world that they are against Israel. That they are sending trillions to her enemies, including this one, while withholding from Israel to punish her for defending herself. That they have let this country be overrun by an ideology that wants to destroy Israel.

The name is not complete in the article
May 17, 2024 7:42 am

It’s:
Arveen Netanel ben Siona

To say kapittel 13, 13 times for this man. May he have a big yeshua on (or before) נצח שבנצח.

Arvin Netanel ben Sonia
May 17, 2024 8:48 am

Update! I was told the correct name is
Arvin Netanel ben Sonia
Arvin is his Iranian name and the name he is called so they want to pray with both names.
And the Mom’s name is Sonia. I am trying to confirm with s/o that knows them first hand. I was told Sonia not Tziona.
Please let’s storm the Heavens

Give tzedaka in increments of chai . . .
May 17, 2024 9:06 am

. . . before reciting Tehillim for Arvin Netanel ben Tziona, as soon as possible. By the time we light on the West Coast, it already will be morning in Iran.

One question:
May 17, 2024 9:12 am

Are the Jews trapped in Iran or are they free to leave?

Iran's time zone. .. . .
May 17, 2024 9:15 am

. . .is 1.5 hours ahead of Eretz Yisroel.

Correct Name??
May 17, 2024 9:17 am

What is his mother’s name?
Tziona or Sonia?
Important to pray with the correct name!
Thanks!
Please only respond with the correct name if you are sure of it!

May 17, 2024 3:20 pm

I understand he killed someone. We have to find out why. Maybe he was defending his family or himself. How is that we do not know why? He should be in trial. And go to jail in the meantime. Why you are giving it to the news, sooo late? There are many Jews in Iran?

Praying for last minute help

He was in prison for 2 years. He was defending himself, but just remember that there is antisemitism. He was scheduled to die tomorrow, but I believe that it was postponed until Monday.
Please say Tehillim 13 thirteen times.

David

Yeah there are many Jews in Iran. There once were many many more, before the Islamic revolution, and they have long been severely persecuted. It is one of the oldest Jewish communities anywhere in the world. As for the specifics of the case, others have mentioned it but the individual facing execution was engaged in self-defense. An additional fact if I am not mistaken: it a Muslim in Iran murders a non-Muslim, he is automatically ineligible for execution. Jews and others, are automatically second-class citizens. But there is the provision that the family of a victim may spare the condemned… Read more »

He was attacked!

He was attacked by 7 people. One who owed him money and he fought back
