Great Web Page, I wish there were more Iranian cities so well represented, maybe I should start one for Nohshahr where I was in Peace Corps. I have been using the nickname Mashtali while on the internet for some time as my Iranian coworkers dubbed me that since I had seen the Imam's tomb on my trip there. I almost transgressed on the grounds of the mosque while there and would have been embarrassed if I had even if nobody minded. I hope true Mashadis' won't mind too much my calling myself Mashtali. I keep hoping to link up with old friends as I lost all contact when I came home. Thank you; Mashtali Pilevar aka Leslie Chapman Salam Leslie, Merci for visiting my home page Mashhad. I am glad you found it useful and interesting. I think its a great idea if you start a webpage for Noshahr. That's how I got started. I am sure FarsiNet would be willing to host it if you provide the content. If interested get in touch with Kourosh and suggest hosting Noshahr. Anyway, I also found it appropriate and cool that you use Mashtali nickname on internet. I have used MashtiNader at times myself. By the way, do you know why they called you Pilevar? Persistent!! Peddler? Khoda Hafez, Nader |

From: Husain Seyed
To: mashhad@farsinet.com Subject: Imam Reza is all Muslim's Imam not just Shi'a Imam Assalam o'alaikum.
The fundamental problem is that except Shi'a Muslims, none really wrote 12 imams' life history, their preachings, and their fatwas, for fear of the tyranny of those kings who took the title of khalifa (even though they were not entitled for that). Now the Sunni hesitate to trust the Shi'a writings about Imams, thinking that those may not be authentic. if it can be proved [similar hard core proof the way Bokhari or Muslim hadith was compiled] that they are authentic, the entire Sunni world will definitely follow the 12 Imams. There is no other way, because they were the Imams about whom RasulAllah spoke about [according to six shahi hadiths that Sunnis follow.] There are a large number of Sunni Muslim who consider Imam Reza [AS] as the real Imam. Could you please edit those lines in webpage and make a correction by writing that imam Reza {AS} was the Imam of the entire Muslim world! May Allah bless us all.
Dear Husain Salam, Thank you for your comments and I respect your belief. The descriptions used in Mashhad Webpage came from historical writings and/or religious books. Therefore, it is not my personal belief. To tell you the truth, it is the first time I hear a Sunni Muslim make such attempt and claim. I will add your comments as a commentary to the main page. Mercy and Khoda Hafez, Nader |

Your information in the matter will of a big help for me to plan a comfortable visit, Because I will be accompanied with my mother, so I really need this information. Thank you very much for your efforts and time in the matter. Jazak Allah Khair
Dear Syed Akber Ali Abedi, Vas Salam o Alaik. Mashhad's weather in November could hover around freezing. We could have some snow by then but probably not. Have sweaters, hat and gloves ready. We may even get some rain. The weather has been so crazy and unpredictable in the past several years. We had a very hot summer so Winter could be cold & wet. I hope you enjoy your visit to Mashhad. Khoda Hafez, Nader Dear Agha Nader Salaam Alaikum Thank you very much for your information. I appreciate your help. Inshallah I will be there in Mashhad on 19th of November. Please pray for my Ziyarat be accepted by Imam-e-Redha. Thanks

I studied in Alam high school in Mashhad when I left for the US in 1978. A number of my classmates are now faculty of the Ferdousi U. Is there an Internet line of communication with Ferdousi U.?

From: Lee Askin To: mashhad@farsinet.com Subject: Mashhad Web Page Effort I'm an American and was a teacher at Ferdowsi U. (1975-76) and lived in Mashhad until the revolution made it too uncomfortable. This is my first impression, as I just stumbled on your page, but I applaud your effort. Mashhad and its region are so rich in history and culture . . . most of your work lies ahead of you! I'm sure it will be worth it, though. The world deserves to know about Mashhad and Khorasan. There is so much positive to say about the ancient crossroads of Central Asia. I hope to find people in Mashhad with whom to correspond via your site. I have already taken note of the Ferdowsi postmaster's address which you provided, and will write to him/her. Good luck. Lee |

From: "Jan Van Assche" To: mashhad@farsinet.com Subject: Addresses in Mashhad Hello, Just found your Mashhad-site - congratulations on a good job ! We were in Mashhad a couple of months ago and we found it the most interesting city in Iran (but I guess people from Shiraz & Esfahan won't agree with me). We met a lot of interesting people in Iran, but especially in Mashhad we met someone who became a good friend after a while. We've had contact on a regular base the last months. I really would like to contact him through the Internet... as a surprise ! He teaches English at Mashhad University, but I can't seem to find the address or what's more important : the e-mail address. Do they have one ? Please let me know if you have the time.... And if you have other interesting links on Iran, they're more than welcome ! Khudaa Haafiz !
From:mashhad@farsinet.com Jan, Thank you for your note and I was delighted to hear you enjoyed Mashhad. I grew up in Mashhad and go back for a visit every other year or so. I was able to find the following email address at the U of Mashhad. I hope it helps. If I come acroos other emails, I'll forward them as well. ---------------------------------------
You can also contact postmaster@toos.um.ac.ir and ask for an email for your friend. For additional links on Iran, you may want to check The PersianWeb. Best of luck and please let me know if I can be of any help,

From: Jenny L. (Chicago) To: mashhad@farsinet.com Subject: Safrun Hello and thank you for beautiful work on Mashhad home page. I have a question and hope you can help. Where can I find GOOD Safrun? I use it very much in my cooking. Thank you. Jenny L. From:mashhad@farsinet.com Subject: Saffron Jenny, Thank you for your note. You can find good quality Saffron in middle eastern grocery stores. You can also check with your local Persian Resturants. I suggest you call REZA's Resturant and ask the best place for wholesale Saffron. There is a Persian Grocery store on North Clark across from the origional Reza Resturant. Another source is the International Product Distribution. IPD has a very large
catalog of persian products, including food products. Here are their phone numbers;
Address;
In one of their old catalogues, Saffron is Catalog #FS0156, 4.5 Grams /pkg. 1-3 pkg: $12.95 each, 4-6 pkg: $11.95 each, and 7 & uP pkg: $10.95/each. Good luck and we hope this info helps. |
