Hajj PilgrimageI went on a Hajj pilgrimage in the early 1340s (1960s). At that time, few people from the army, gendarmerie and police went on a pilgrimage to the holy Mashhad and holy shrines in Iraq. It happened very rarely. After all, there were faithful people in the Iranian army who were committed to obeying the Islamic halal and haram rules in any situation, and they used to pray.
Memories of a Mazandaran womanThe Memory of Voting on April 1st of 1979The famous voting was on April 1st, 1979. The governor gave us a mission to take a ballot box to "Javaherdeh" village. As many as qualified, they also gave us a ballot to take to the country with the box. We put the papers in the bag and left. Then, like now, there was no car to easily go to the villages. No matter how difficult it was, we got a car and finally reached Javaherdeh.

Several days had passed since mother and the kids left, but I still had no word from them. I didn’t know where they were or what they were doing.
