From Border to Border
My Kurdish background has sparked an interest in the study of identity and ethnicity that has always been present in me. My childhood experiences have been affected by various ethnic stories, narratives and wartime memories. I was born and raised in an area close to the Iraqi border and not far from the Turkish border. This border position might have helped me to reach a more vivid picture and understanding of such concepts as identity and ethnicity. Another reason for my interest in identity and ethnicity is related to the background of my studies in other geographical locations, mostly in Iran and its rural and deprived societies. These studies kept me in close contact with the ethnic grou...

A House on Water
There are contradictory attitudes toward temporary marriage in Iranian society. The proponents consider it as a means to prevent social degradation and moral corruption while the opponents take it as a pleasure-seeking tool for men in violation of the rights of children and women. This study supports the view that temporary marriage is a back door to sexual exploitation. According to the study’s findings, mut'ah is a practice that lacks redeeming values and positive functions. Rather, it causes harms such as child marriage, the collapse of the family foundation, negative attitudes towards permanent marriage, the promotion of corruption and violations of women’s rights. Many women agree t...

انگشتانی که در باغچه روئیدند
معرفی کوتاه: {اخیرا کشف کرده ام که چرا این همه به داستان نویسی علاقمندم. می نویسم: چون روحم رو تلطیف می کنه هر بار با نوشتن داستانی، ذره ای از خشم بی پایانی که در درونم هست کاسته می شه درونم خیلی ناآرامه و پر از التهاب و خشم. و انگار این خشم هیچ وقت تموم نمی شه. اگر مدتی ننویسم به شدت بیمار می شم و آسیبی جدی به خودم می زنم در واقع نوشتن من رو زنده نگه می داره. انگار باید بگم: می نویسم، پس هستم. }
