De terrorist van Sydney vertegenwoordigt niet de Iraanse gemeenschap.

Als lid van de Iraanse gemeenschap in Nederland heb ik het trieste nieuws van de gijzeling in Sydney Australië, gevolgd, die uiteindelijk tragisch is afgelopen door het doden en verwonden van de onschuldige mensen.
Ik was geschokt toen ik hoorde dat de terrorist een Iraniërs was die de Islamitische Staat in Irak en Syrië steunde. Het was triest nieuws  omdat we als Iraniërs in het buitenland elke vorm van de radicale islam afwijzen. De Iraanse gemeenschap in Nederland deelt deze mening.Lees de boodschappen, commentaren en artikelen in de sociale media van Iraniërs in Nederland.
Iraniërs (Perzen) in Nederland te veroordelen dergelijke terreurdaden. Velen van ons zijn ontsnapt aan de druk van een brutale en politieke Islam die intellectuelen, burgeractivisten en journalisten bestrijden en op de korrel nemen. Zelfs vanuit een historisch oogpunt, werden we, om  de islam te accepteren, al in 651 en uiteindelijke bij de ondergang van het Zoroastrisme in Iran geconfronteerd met dood, verkrachting en slavernij door de aanvallers uit Arabië. Hetzelfde gebeurt nu in het noorden van Irak met minderheden.
De Iraanse gemeenschap doet haar best om in Nederland succesvol te zijn. Recente rapporten in de media ondersteunt deze claim. Veel jonge en talentvolle mensen die uit Iran gevlucht zijn wonen nu in Nederland en werken hard aan hun toekomst om deel uit te gaan maken van de Nederlandse samenleving. Ze willen hun goede reputatie hoog houden.
We blijven ons inspannen om de wereld tot een betere woonplaats te maken overeenkomstig het woord van de Perzische profeet Zarathoestra.
Ik wil graag mijn medeleven betuigen aan de families van de slachtoffers van terreur in Sidney en stel mijn hoop op een wereld zonder het kwaad van radicalisering

Dress code in Tehran

http://www.expontomagazine.nl/home/buitenland/item/1852-dress-code-in-tehran.html Arash Sameti:  My interviewee had a unique experience that is hard to forget. During the last summer, she was arrested by the Moral Police in Tehran, Iran. The police considered her clothing not sufficient enough. They told her that the sleeves were considered shorter than allowed and tighter than the government standards. She agreed to explain her story, with the condition of remaining anonymous. Was your clothing that bad? I was wearing the official Manto. It is like a longer dress that women must wear out of their home in Tehran, on the top of any other thing that you want to wear. It did not have any problem. It was even black and that’s the color which is preferred by the Moral Police. I think they just wanted to arrest some people to show their power and will to other citizens. What are the standards of the government regarding the clothing? There is no freedom for women to ch...

Zoroastrian religion in short

By Mobed Kamran Jamshidi 1. It is an on-going quest for truth and right, with the ultimate weapon, a friendly, inquiring mind -- figure out what is true and right, and think it, speak it and do it -- keep discovering truth in ourselves and our world. 2. It sees the material and the spiritual as both good -- showing us that the material world is the beautiful medium through which we express and bring to life, spiritual truths -- thus achieving the purpose of live -- to evolve ourselves into perfection, completeness, and in the process, perfect or renovate our world -- we cannot do one without the other. 3. It teaches us to worship God with his own divine attributes in the every day events of our lives -- turning mundane, "unimportant" acts into acts of worship, if performed with friendship, truth, love, integrity, reason, understanding -- and have fun while we are at it -- enjoy the experience -- a religion of joy! 4. It teaches us that we are all a part of th...
