Community Prays For Er. Zahan Turel’s Speedy Recovery

On 24th October, 2020, our community’s young priest, 16-year-old Er. Zahan, who is a student at the Dadar Boarding Madressa, Bombay, suffered an unfortunate accident whilst offering Machi at the Pak Goti Aderan, Surat, where seven generations of his family have served before him.

Currently studying in the tenth class in school, the incident took place when Er. Zahan, after completing the Rapithwan Geh Boi suddenly realised that his jama had caught a spark and before he or the two ladies attending the Machi could help, he had sustained 40 per cent burn injuries, with his hands, chest and back severely affected. Zahan had been hospitalised and was then shifted to Mumbai’s Masina Hospital, known for its excellent Burns Care Department. As of 30th October, 2020, we have been informed that Zahan is under intensive care and will be kept under observation for the next couple of weeks.

Er. Zahan’s father, Er. Meherzad Turel is the Panthaky of Pak Goti Adaryan, and his family has been serving the holy fire for many decades.

The Zarthosti community in India and across the world, stands by Er. Zahan and his parents – Er. Meherzad and Farzin – during these trying times and sends heartfelt prayers for his healing and speedy recovery.
