![](http://oral-history.ir/pic/thumbnail.php?filename=5772) The Imposed War Oral HistoryNew Horizons or Multiple Narratives?The expanding trend in using Oral History, bring about this question: What kind of goals and conclusions does Oral History observe? This question is based on two presumptions: First, using Oral History is followed for completing written history with a cultural-social approach. Moreover, the outcome of imposed war oral history would develop people’s defense approach toward war based on cultural-ideological teachings, and also multiple narratives of war events by the cooperation of all the people who have experienced war.

![](http://oral-history.ir/pic/thumbnail.php?filename=5771) Iran-Iraq War andMoney in FrontsA question has always been in my mind that if it is possible to deal with subjects that are not so much dealt with and even might be considered somehow critical. It seems that the film “Deportees (Ekhraji-ha)” and publication of some notes about the Sacred Defense (Iran-Iraq War) made this atmosphere more debatable. The subject “Money in War” was made more attractive to me when I heard from some of veterans that they went to the fronts with no money on with them and returned as they went (with no money). It means they didn’t need money when they were in the fronts. The same seems so impossible for us in 2015.

Memories of Qadamkheyr Mohammadi Kanaan
Wife of Sardar Shaheed Haj Sattar Ebrahimi Hajir
Memory writer: Behnaz Zarrabizadeh
Tehran, Sooreh Mehr Publications Company, 2011 (Persian Version)
Translated by Zahra Hosseinian
It happened as what Samad had said; pilgrimage changed my mood completely. In themornings I would go to the shrine, pray the ones which were not said at the proper time, and I was engaged in prayer and pilgrimage. Sometimes, we would regret halfway, when leaving the shrine and getting back to the hotel. We could not bring ourselves to leave there, so we would return to the shrine again.
One day, as I had sat there and let my eyes rest on the shrine, suddenly noticed a crowd entered the shrine who shouted la ilaha illa'llah. They were slowly carrying several coffins and sprinkling rose-water and throwing flowers toward the coffins. I found out they were martyrs of Mashhad whose funeral were supposed to be hold that day, when I asked around. I do not know how I remembered Samad and were close to tears. I asked my mother-in-law to take after my babies and then joined to the crowd carrying the coffins.
