Regarding the sale of tea and other refreshments in a cinema under
non-Baha'i ownership; those friends who have hired from the owner of the
cinema a stall for the sale of such refreshments should make every effort
to obtain permission to close on Baha'i holidays. In case, however, the
non-Baha'i owner or partner refuses to grant their request their only
alternative is to obey.
The case is different with a bread bakery owned by a believer. In this
case there can be no excuse whatever why the shop should not be closed
during Baha'i holidays, as there are always non-Baha'i bakers from whom
the public can buy.
