Pst Saeed refusing marriage counselling for abuse, says his wife

Naghmeh Abedini, the wife of Pst Saeed Abedini, who was imprisoned for his faith in Iran, has said that her husband continues to refuse to join her in getting counseling for the abuse that she says has been going on in their marriage.

She wrote on Facebook on Monday, "At this point Saeed has not been willing to join me in getting counseling on the abuse which has been a big part of our life together. Once the abuse has been addressed, then that will open the way for us to get marriage counseling on the more common marital issues.

"I hope that Saeed can address the abuse as soon as possible so that our family can move towards reconciliation and healing. With birthdays and holidays coming up and for the sake of our children, no one longs for reconciliation for our family more than me," she continued.

"I have loved Saeed more than I have ever loved any human being in my life and it has been hard to stand and keep the boundaries and ask for the abuse to be addressed. This is the most loving thing I can do for my husband and children at this time. My love and passion in fighting for Saeed's freedom has not changed, but it has taken a different form on my knees."
 

 So far Saeed has not yet responded.

*Someone would ask, "Since this is a private matter, why don't they settle this matter privately? Why does Naghmeh have to go public on Facebook with all this accusations?"

 

 Maybe Naghmeh thinks the best way to get her husband to walk through the healing process is to make it public. I dunno. I pray God to give them wisdom on how to handle their issues and restore their home.
