Committee, and the Armenian Teaching Committee. She graduated as a
trained nurse and around 1955 became the head of nurse training for
the Baha'i-run Mithaqiyyih Hospital. She married Rahmatu'llah Ala'i
in 1928 and the two had three children before Mrs. Ala'i was widowed
in 1940. In the early 1980s, when the persecution of Baha' is in Iran
was at its height, she moved to New Zealand, settling in the city of

Faith" and "dedication ... to the Baha'i community."
