The Amazing Way Jesus Reached Down and Rescued a Desperate Iranian Atheistic Woman Who Tried to Hang Herself after Years of Abuse"When I stood up I saw that my noose was open on the floor and my neck was all black. After two years of not being able to cry, I cried for hours..." -Bahar
"When my father retired he went into business with a man who became his partner," Bahar* says on the "Sheep Among Wolves" documentary. "He brought his friend to our house. When I was five years old the man raped me. He did this for many years and I was afraid to tell my father." Bahar's mother found out and told her husband. "He started beating me from that day forward," Bahar recounts. "My father didn't stop his business with the man. In fact, he invited him more to our home. From that time on, I hated men.

But before she hung herself, she said something surprising: "God, if you actually exist, I want to physically touch you." Bahar put the rope around her neck, affixed it to the hook, and jumped. "Everything went black and I didn't understand what was happening," she recounts. "And for four seconds I saw Jesus. I saw that I am on His shoulders like a child that loves his father. And I always wanted to do this with my father. "Please don't put me on the ground," she said to Him. I promise I will always protect you. I won't let a rock strike your foot, He told her.
