Akhbár-i Amrí (Iran, 1930-31, 1945-1977)

Akhbár-i Amrí

Published at first by “Lajnih-yi Nashr-i Nafahát” (Committee for the Diffusion of the Divine Faragrances) and then by Mahfil-i Ruhání-yi Millí-yi Baháiyán-i Írán (National Spiritual Assembly of the Bahá’ís of Iran), Tehran, Iran

News Bulletin published by a committee of the National Spiritual Assembly of Iran

Dates Published: 1922-1981.

1922-1949: At first, publication year was from April to April. Thus the last issue of each publication year goes into the first and second Baha’i months and the first Solar Hijrí month of the next year. Publication was one issue per Solar Hijrí month. Twelve issues per year.

1949-1970: The publication year was then adjusted so that it began and ended with Naw-Rúz each year, thus corresponding exactly to the Bahá’í and Solar Hijrí years. Publication was one issue per Solar Hijrí month. Twelve issues per year.

There was a break in publication after the attack on the Bahá’ís in 1955. A new series started in 1959.

1970: Publication was somewhat erratic during this year and there were 14 issues with most issues covering one Bahá’í month.

1971-1981: 19 issues per year, each issue covering one Bahá’í month.
