Can anyone tell me what this says?
If u could dm me as I believe what this girl is telling me is NSFW
I am a Persian girl who just graduated high school in south Florida. I am debating going to university in Florida or doing two years at a community college in California and transferring to UCLA or UCSB. My issue is that i definitely want to marry a Persian man and keep my culture and I’m scared that going to a predominantly white school will separate me from my culture. There’s no big Persian community in my area and I know most people meet their significant other in college. This is probably dumb but it’s just something I’m worried about. Being around people who are only white. There’s no big MSA at any Florida schools and I don’t want to loose that part of myself in university. In California I would definitely be closer to my culture and there are big communities and diversity. I also would love to experience college and sitting at home for my first two years of university does not sound appealing to me. I know it’s not garenteed that you will meet someone in college but being somewhere that has a larger community of Persians might be beneficial for me in the long run. Not sure what to do
The Shah of Iran resurrected, a scene from the movie AHRIMAN: Death Before Dying
In this film, the Shah of Iran is resurrected by the ancient gods Anubis and Osiris in a surreal dance of rebirth. The story unfolds as Spenta-Mainyu, the spirit of goodness, traverses time and space to show the Shah the modern-day repercussions of a critical speech made at Cyrus' Tomb. This speech disrupted a soul's reincarnation timeline, leading to a gripping tale of corruption and redemption. If you're into films that blend history, mythology, and spiritual quests, this is a must-watch!
Is this an accurate translation for Farsi and if not can someone message me and help?
باید غمگین باشید برای پنج سالی که با اولین نوه متولد شده عمران شماره یک از پنج فرزندتان از دست دادید. پسر شما اکنون پنج فرزند دارد، اما شما هنوز هیچ چیز از همه چیز آنها نمی دانید و حتی آنها را با چهار دختر و یک پسر ملاقات نکرده اید. یکی از آنها ماه گذشته به دنیا آمد، فقط یک نوزاد دیگر که هرگز نخواهید فهمید. اما شما اهمیتی نمی دهید و خود را مسلمان می نامید. مسلمانان واقعی خانواده های خود را رها نمی کنند. و دختر من هم مثل او فرزند اوست یا نه. برای من مهم نیست که او برای شما خیلی "سیاه" باشد. او خون توست و اجازه می دهی پسرت همه بچه هایش را نادیده بگیرد و خودت را پدر می نامی؟ تو هم مثل اون بدی شما اجازه می دهید پسرتان با بدرفتاری و ضرب و شتم و باردار شدن زنان برود و او را پاسخگو نکنید. آیا این راه مسلمانان است؟ او به خاطر تو این گونه رفتار می کند. اینطوری بزرگش کردی به عنوان یک بچه مرد عمل کند او تا امروز به تعقیب و آزار من ادامه می دهد. اما همه چیز خیلی زود به پایان می رسد. از زندان عاشق پسرت باش
I’m going on a date with a German / Persian man ? Any advise ?
Hello everyone,
My best friend is Iranian, she is soon getting married, however; her biggest worry is where should she hold the wedding. We currently live in the USA, and as you know, it’s very hard to get a VISA for her family members to come watch her beautiful day. She has thought of holding a wedding in Mexico or Turkey,it does not have to be only these 2 countries. She does not know which is easier, safer, and more affordable for them to get a VISA. Please help me advise her because I’m not sure about these things and she’s overwhelmed.
Also, how much would a destination wedding cost her and her soon to be husband? We are trying to plan a budget sheet and see what’s the estimation but we aren’t sure. We have been doing our research and we have found wedding planners that do destination weddings; however we are not sure if they should go have a consultation before even getting engaged? The reason is cause weddings are expensive and I told them they should start saving but they are not sure of how much saving they will need since they plan for a destination wedding.
I appreciate all the help and advice that’ll be given. Thank you!
Hello friends,
I am looking to get my hands on a book that was written by a Persian writer in the 1930’s and Google is having a hard time translating the title for me so i can find it.
The book is called:
Finnayat-i-Bashar (Man’s Crimes 1930) Written by - Rabi Ansari
Does anyone have any information on these books?
Hello everyone,
My best friend, who I consider my sister, is Persian. She taught me how to use esfand, and I bought esfand from an Arabic store. I want to use it to ward off the evil eye, but I have an electric stove. Will it work the same as a gas stove, or do I need to do something different? I know I need to buy an iron/steel burner, but I'm unsure if it will work the same way or not.
Any Persian introverts out there? How do you manage this with the collectivist Persian culture? I love my family and culture, but they are all very attached at the hip and sometimes I need my own time. But this is never respected and always causes arguments. How do y’all navigate this?
I’d love some help 😭🤍 I’m picking up my boyfriend from the airport after a long trip, so I wanted to surprise him with a cute sign written in Farsi to make him feel special. Could I please get some help?
Is the below correct? Or is there something more natural? Thank you so much in advance!
