Top Iran Official’s Son Has Hand Amputated After Abandoning Islam to Follow Jesus || Testimony

In this gripping and powerful real-life testimony, Mehrshad Ghaffari—the son of a high-ranking Iranian imam and government official—shares the harrowing journey of how choosing Jesus Christ over Islam cost him everything: his family, his future, his freedom, and even his left hand.

Born and raised in the holy city of Qom, Mehrshad grew up under the strict expectations of Islamic law, with a father deeply embedded in Iran’s religious and political elite. Trained to pray five times a day, recite the Quran, and serve the Islamic Republic with unquestioning loyalty, Mehrshad appeared to be the ideal son of the regime. But deep within, a silent emptiness grew—one no ritual could silence.

When he secretly encountered the words of Jesus, something awakened. The peace, love, and forgiveness he read in the Bible spoke louder than the fear that ruled his world. As Mehrshad began to follow Christ in secret, he was eventually discovered—leading to unimaginable consequences. Beaten. Imprisoned. Dragged before his own father. In a brutal act of religious judgment, his left hand was amputated as punishment for apostasy.

But this is not a story of defeat.

In exile, scarred but not broken, Mehrshad found healing, hope, and a deeper faith than ever before. From the refugee camps to the underground church, and finally to freedom, this is the story of redemption—of how Jesus met a broken man in the valley of death and turned his suffering into a living testimony of grace.

✨ In this video, you’ll hear about:

  • His strict Muslim upbringing in Qom, Iran
  • The moment he first encountered the Gospel
