Podcasts about Ahvaz

Welcome to this edition of the NCRI Women's Committee podcast. Every year, December 7 marks the Day of Students in Iran. On December 7, 1953, three students were killed by military forces on the campus of Tehran University's College of Engineering. Since then, this day has been known as Students' Day in Iran, honoring the struggles of Iranian university students.Iranian universities have long served as hubs of knowledge. Alongside knowledge, there emerges a deep longing for freedom. Consequently, many leaders of opposition movements in Iran have risen from universities, drawing from the most informed sectors of Iranian intellectuals.Today, we explore the pivotal role of female students within universities and their involvement in the 2022-2023 uprising in Iran.***It's fitting to remember dozens of young women who paid the ultimate price during the 2022 protests. Let's remember Donya Farhadi, a 22-year-old student of Architecture at Azad University of Ahvaz, in the southwest Khuzestan province. Donya had been missing since December 7 after she had an argument with Basij militia members on the campus that day. Her body was found on the 15th of December on the banks of Karun River in Ahvaz. Her chest had been pierced by three bullets. However, the regime initially claimed that she had jumped down from the Karun bridge and committed suicide.We also had the case of Nasrin Qaderi from Marivan, Kurdistan. She was 38 years old and a student of Ph.D. in philosophy. Security forces hit her on the head during a protest in Tehran on the 4th of November. She slipped into a coma and died the next day in a hospital. Again, the state media claimed that she had died due to a chronic disease. There was also Negin Abdolmaleki who was only 21. She came from Qorveh, Kurdistan, but studied medical engineering at the Industrial University of Hamedan. She was repeatedly hit on the head by batons during a protest on October 11 in the city. She was severely injured. When she returned to the dormitory, she died due to severe bleeding. The authorities claimed that she had been intoxicated by expired canned fish!!Let us also remember Behnaz Afshari, a 23-year-old woman from Pakdasht, in Tehran Province. She left home on the 26th of October to participate in protests in Tehran but never returned home. Her body was found after five days in forensics medicine.  Episode: Podcast: https://www.buzzsprout.com/1908986

Irans spioner är ett av de stora hoten mot Sverige, enligt Säpo. Det handlar om starka underrättelsetjänster som kan utföra kartläggningar och attentat. Lyssna på alla avsnitt i Sveriges Radio Play. Svensken Johan Floderus är gripen och fängslad i Iran sedan våren 2022, och fallet visar på hotbilden mot svenska medborgare som besöker Iran.Men det finns säkerhetshot från Iran även i Sverige. Det handlar om underrättelseverksamhet mot person, som även kallas flyktingspionage.– Det slår mot dom grundläggande värdena i den svenska demokratin med yttrandefrihet och organisationsfrihet, säger Kennet Alexandersson, tidigare chefsanalytiker på Säpo.Ett exempel är den man i Sverige som i mitten av 2010-talet blir spion för den iranska underrättelsetjänsten.Genom att utge sig för att vara journalist får han tillgång till personer inom motståndsrörelsen ASMLA i flera europeiska länder.ASMLA är en våldsbejakande organisation som slåss för att provinsen Khuzestan, eller Ahvaz, ska bli självständig.Under flera år dokumenterar han deras personuppgifter och skickar dem vidare till sina kontakter i Iran innan han grips och döms.Iran – ett av tre stora hotIran är ett av de tre länder som särskilt pekas ut som ett hot mot Sveriges säkerhet. Ändå hamnar det lite i skuggan av de två andra; Ryssland och Kina.Det bor 120 000 personer i Sverige som är födda i Iran eller har en förälder som är det. Det är en av flera anledningar till att Sverige är intressant för den iranska regimen och dess många spionorganisationer, bland annat Mois och IRGC.– Irans underrättelsetjänster har ju visat att man inte drar sig för att begå attentat, som mordförsök. Framför allt riktat då mot exiliranier utomlands som är för högljudda i sina protester eller i sin opposition, säger Carolina Angelis, analytiker med bakgrund i svensk underrättelsetjänst. Relationen mellan Sverige och Iran är kylig. Svenska myndigheter har gripit en misstänkt iransk krigsförbrytare och i Iran avrättades i maj 2023 den iransk-svenske medborgaren Habib Chaab, som dömts för inblandning i terrordåd.Medverkande:Hans-Jörgen Hanström, tidigare kammaråklagare på rikseneheten för säkerhetsmålRouzbeh Parsi, programchef för Mellanöstern- och Afrikaprogrammet på Utrikespolitiska institutetCarolina Angelis, senior analytiker på säkerhetsföretaget Truesec, tidigare på militära underrättelse- och säkerhetstjänsten MustKennet Alexandersson, tidigare chefsanalytiker på SäkerhetspolisenProgramledare: Bo Torbjörn Ek och Karin HållstenProducent: Jimmy HalvarssonTekniker: Glate ÖhmanLjud från Sveriges Radio, TV4, NBC News

Fatır Suresi (Arapça: سورة فاطر) adını birinci ayette geçen "Fatır" kelimesinden alır. Fatır, Allah'ın sıfatlarından olup, "ilk olarak yaratan" anlamına gelir. Bu sure "Melâike Suresi" diye de anılır. Fatır, hamd ile başlayan beş sureden biridir. Sure 45 ayettir. Mekke'de ve Furkân Suresi'nden sonra inmiştir. Mekkidir. Nüzul Sırası 43 Sure Numarası 35 Cüz 22 Ayet Sayısı 45 Kelime Sayısı 780 Harf Sayısı 3228 Bu sure adını, birinci ayette geçen "Fatır" kelimesinden alır. Bu surenin bir diğer adı “Melaike” suresidir. [1]Zira birinci ayette meleklerden, onların misyon ve yaratılma gayesinden bahsedilmektedir. Bu ayet-i kerimede kullanılan "Fatır" sözcüğü, yerin ve göğün yaratıcısı ve Rabbi anlamına gelmektedir. [2]Bu ayette meleklerin “ecnehe” sahibi, yani, kanatlı oldukları zikredilmiştir.[3] Bu sure, hamd ile başlayan beş surenin sonuncusudur. Ayet: “el-Hamdulillah”, yani Allah'ın hamd ve şükrü ile başlamaktadır. Ayet sayısı 45, Şam ve Medine karilerine göre ise, 46'dır; ancak birinci görüş daha doğrudur. Sure, 780 kelime ve 3228 harften oluşmaktadır. Mushaf'taki resmi sırasına göre otuz beşinci[4] ve iniş sırasına göre ise, kırk üçüncü suredir. Mekki surelerdendir. Hacim olarak mesani surelerden ve bir hizip kadardır.[5] Bu sure, insanları dünya gururundan, şeytanın fitne ve vesveselerinden sakındırmakta; insanların fakir ve Allah'ın ise, zengin olduğunu vurgulamaktadır. İnsanlara, veliyi nimetlerini tanımaları için verilen nimetler hatırlatılmakta ve "mead", "yeniden diriliş", "kıyamet sahneleri", "kâfirlerin pişmanlık ve nedametleri" ve "yeniden dünyaya dönmek isteyişleri" gibi konulara değinmektedir.[6] İslam Peygamberinin (s.a.a) İnsanları Hidayet Etme Çabası Yüce Allah, sekizinci ayet-i kerimede Allah Resulü'ne (s.a.a) şöyle buyuruyor: "Allah dilediğini sapıklığa yöneltir, dilediğini doğru yola iletir. O halde onlar için üzülerek kendini helak etme. Allah onların ne yaptıklarını biliyor." Bu ayeti kerimedeki kavram, Şuara Suresi üçüncü ayeti kerimesindeki kavramla aynıdır. [8] Yüce Allah, Şuara Suresi üçüncü ayeti kerimede şu şekilde buyuruyor: "Kendine kıyacaksın inanmıyorlar diye âdetâ." [Not 1] Kur'an-ı Kerim'de bu tabirin tekrar edilmesi, İslam Peygamberinin (s.a.a) risaletini yerine getirmek ve insanları hidayet etmek için ne kadar canı gönülden çaba harcadığını ortaya koymaktadır. [9] Hidayet ve Sapkınlık Allah'ın mı, Yoksa İnsanın mı Elindedir? Yüce Allah, sekizinci ayet-i kerimede şöyle buyurmaktadır: "Hiç şüphe yok ki Allah, dilediğini saptırır ve dilediğini doğru yola sevk eder." Bu ayet-i kerimenin zahiri manasına göre, irade, ihtiyar insandan nefy edilmektedir. Ancak, Tabersi'nin ‘‘İhticac'' kitabında naklettiğine göre, İmam Hadi'nin (a.s) Ahvaz halkı için yazmış olduğu mektubunu iki farklı şekilde mana edebiliriz: 1-Eğer Yüce Allah istediği herkesi hidayet edecek ve saptıracak olursa, o halde cezalandırmanın ve mükâfatın ne anlamı var. Halbuki insanın yapmış olduğu tüm işlerin iyiyse mükâfatı, kötüyse de cezası bulunmaktadır. Öyleyse ikinci mana daha doğrudur. 2-Allah tarafından hidayet bulmak, yani "tanıtmak" manasına gelmektedir. Yani Yüce Allah hidayet yolunu insana göstermektedir. Aynı Fussilet Suresi 17. ayet-i kerimede buyurduğu gibi. [10] Oysa bu durumda karar verme mekanizması insanın kendi ihtiyarındadır. [11] Her halükarda bazı tefsirciler, hidayet ve dalaletin iki merhalesi olduğunu söylemekteler. Birinci merhalede Allah, insanı mecbur etmiyor; yani insan ihtiyar sahibidir. Ancak eğer insan delalet ve sapkınlığı seçerse, birtakım cezalandırılmaları ve sapkınlıkları da beraberinde getirecektir. Öyle ki ikinci dalalet ve sapkınlık, Allah'ın fermanı iledir. Aslına bakılırsa bu, gerçekte insanın itaatsizlik yaparak, hak yoldan ayrılmasından kaynaklanmaktadır. İşte bundan dolayı, bu ayetlerin asıl maksadı, yani ikinci dalalet ve sapkınlık Allah'ın ihtiyarındadır. Hidayette aynı şekildedir. [12]

Efter en mörk podd-period som präglats om monster och mord landar vi nu i något mjukare - kärlek och relationer.  Eller är det värsta som finns att vara kär?  Hur skildras relationer i ungdomsböcker och vilken typ av relationer är bäst att läsa? Vilka är Sveriges starkaste trio och vad händer egentligen när man tröttnar på att vara söt och underordnad i Tierp? Vi reagerar på fördomar om ungdomsböcker och konstaterar att vi inte minns hur en enda bok slutar....  Dessutom pratar vi med debutanten Nioosha Shams om hennes bok "Om det regnar i Ahvaz". Om att skriva om kärlek istället för sexualitet och att hitta inspiration i persiska mattor.  Medverkar gör: Anders Olsson, Sara Norén, Sofia Eliasson och Nioosha Shams.  Sånt vi pratar om i podden:Om det regnar i Ahvaz - Nioosha ShamsThe house in the cerulian sea - T.J KluneFangirl, Carry on, Wayward sons - Rainbow RowellPet - Akawake EmeziKorpringarna - Siri PettersenSommarplåga - Hanna Jedvik På andra sidan bron - Hanna JedvikKurt Cobain finns inte mer - Hanna JedvikGudarna - Elin Cullhed

A very animated edition of Roqe (so to speak!) including a feature interview with Iranian-American visual artist, illustrator, and production designer, Mehrdad Isvandi. Mehrdad, while still only in his 30s, has become a key player at Disney Animation involved in the creation of blockbuster films. He joins Jian from Los Angeles to discuss growing up as a kid in Ahvaz with drawing as his escape and form of expression, overcoming personal challenges around learning ability, taking every measure to leave Iran to pursue his illustration talent and creative skills, landing at Google and Dreamworks in California, and his present role at Disney where he’s been instrumental in creating films like “Moana,” “Raya and the Last Dragon,” and “Ralph Breaks the Internet.” Plus the Roqe On-Air Team pokes fun at Jian for his low-status vaccination, discusses the merits of exiting WhatsApp groups, and Kyan delivers a new edition of “It’s All Persian To Us!”

Moa Svan, Pernilla Hammargen & Therese Sandin släpper ytterligare ett avsnitt av Lesbisk Revy. I detta sjätte avsnitt läser vi Om det regnar i Ahvaz av Nioosha Shams. Pernilla har dessutom läst serieromanen Gå med mig till hörnet av Anneli Furmark.

Chapter 5 discribes how I hired smugglers from the Kirdish underground to get out of Iran and my experiences in a boarder city called Urumeh. Iran Flag The map shows Iran, an Islamic state between the Caspian Sea in the north and the Persian Gulf in the south. The country is officially named the Islamic Republic of Iran. Until the 1980s in the Western world, Persia was historically the common name for Iran. Persia was a monarchy until 1979 when the last Persian Shah Reza Pahlavi was overthrown in a popular uprising, headed by Ayatollah Khomeini. Iran borders Afghanistan, Armenia, Azerbaijan, Iraq, Pakistan, Turkey, and Turkmenistan. It shares maritime borders with Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, Saudi Arabia, and the United Arab Emirates. With an area of 1,648,195 km², Iran is almost three times the size of France or somewhat smaller than the US state of Alaska. Large parts of the country occupy the Iranian Plateau (or Persian Plateau, a geological formation in Western and Central Asia). A broad portion of Iran's coastal regions at the Persian Gulf is part of the Arabian plate. The highest mountain in Iran is Mount Damavand at 5,610 m (18,410 ft), a potentially active volcano in the Alborz mountain range south of the Caspian Sea, about 70 km northeast of Tehran. Most rivers in Iran are relatively short, shallow streams, the only navigable river is the Karun (Karoun) with a length of 725 km. The country has a population of 82 million people (est. 2019). The largest city and capital is Tehran. Other major cities are Mashhad, Isfahan, Karaj (a suburb of Tehran), Tabriz, Shiraz, Ahvaz, and Qom. Spoken language is Persian (Farsi, official). The official religion is Shia Islam. Regions of Iran Iran is divided into five regions with thirty-one provinces. The five administrative regions are Tehran, Isfahan, Tabriz, Kermanshah, and Mashhad.

On June 25, 2020, an explosion rocked the Iranian military complex of Parchin. An hour later, the city of Shiraz—which houses major Iranian military facilities—was hit with a power outage. On June 30, there was an explosion at a clinic in Tehran; on July 2, the nuclear-enrichment facility in Natanz was hit; July 4 saw an explosion at a power plant in Ahvaz. In fact, every day or two since late June has brought news of a mysterious explosion somewhere in Iran. What on earth is going on? In this podcast, Jonathan Silver talks with Major General (ret.) Amos Yadlin, Israel’s former chief of military intelligence and the executive director of Tel Aviv University’s Institute for National Security Studies (INSS), in order to understand these mysterious events. They examine the geopolitical backdrop of the current chaos, the strategic thinking of whoever is behind these bombings, and what this all could mean for the future of the region. Musical selections in this podcast are drawn from the Quintet for Clarinet and Strings, op. 31a, composed by Paul Ben-Haim and performed by the ARC Ensemble.

The Middle East is witnessing a new form of kinetic cyber warfare that has dramatically set back Iran’s nuclear program. Dr. Stephen Bryen, former Reagan era Deputy Under Secretary of Defense for Technology and Security, noted military technologist and Asia Times columnist calls it “Son of Stuxnet”. That is a reference to the joint US-Israel malworm virus attack in 2009 -2010 on the Natanz enriched uranium cascade facility that destroyed an estimated 1,000 of 5,000 centrifuges. The difference this time was the cyber-attacks may have generated explosions. Natanz was hit on July 2, 2020 by an explosion that destroyed the equipment and facilities for producing the current generation of advanced centrifuges. That according to David Albright of the Washington, DC-based Institute for Science and International Security (ISIS) may have set back Iran’s nuclear weapons development by 2 plus years and even longer. Bryen said that this round of cyber kinetic warfare was initiated “when Iran cyberattacked Israel’s water supply system on April 24 and 25, 2020. The water facility attack was intended to release large amounts of poisonous chlorine into Israel’s water delivery infrastructure, potentially poisoning tens of thousands of Israelis. Israel responded by temporarily disabled the Iranian Shahid Rajaee port (Bandar Abbas) in the Straits of Hormuz.” More explosive events followed in late June and the first two weeks of July. Bryen noted these events: • On June 26, a building in the solid fuel assembly plant of the Khojir Missile facility, which also deals with nuclear warhead designs, exploded with such force that it was seen 70 Kms. away. At the same time, an explosion and fire destroyed the power plant servicing the city of Shiraz, plunging it into darkness. • On June 30, explosions ripped through the sub-basement levels of the Sinna medical center in Tehran killing 13. • On July 2, an explosion, claimed by an unknown opposition group, the Panthers of the Nation, ripped apart the new centrifuge assembly building in the Natanz nuclear center. The Iranian regime has all but admitted this is a major setback to its enrichment program. The same night, a major complex exploded and burned in Shiraz. • On July 3, an enormous fire erupted in the northwest part of Shiraz in an unknown location and facility. The same night, another large fire destroyed an unknown facility in Salmas near Tehran. • On July 4, a fire and explosion in southwest Iran in the predominantly Sunni Arab province of Ahvaz destroyed the power plant. At about the same time, the Karoun Petrochemical plant failed and released what was claimed to be chlorine gas sending about six dozen to the hospital. • Early on July 7, a powerful explosion engulfed a warehouse or factory of unknown use in Beqarshahr south of Tehran. This is the same vicinity in which the Israelis two years ago seized Iran’s nuclear archives, namely Turouzabad- Kahrizak, and in which Israel and the IAEA suspect also was a major nuclear warehouse. Bryen said the most significant cyber kinetic attack was against the Natanz centrifuge production facility. That was borne out in the post attack damage assessment made by ISIS. It concluded: “Although the explosion and fire at the Iran Centrifuge Assembly Center does not eliminate Iran’s ability to deploy advanced centrifuges, its destruction must be viewed as a major setback to Iran’s ability to deploy advanced centrifuges on a mass scale for years to come. “This was a crown jewel of their program,” Albright of ISIS said. Beyond the Matrix 15JULY2020 - PODCAST

Season 17, Episode 1. Ngaji FIlsafat - Dr. Fahruddin Faiz Abu-Ali Al-Hasan bin Hani Al-Hakami (756-814), biasanya dikenal sebagai Abū-awās atau Abū-Nuwās (Bahasa Arab:ابونواس), adalah seorang pujangga Arab. Dia dilahirkan di kota Ahvaz di negeri Persia, dengan darah Arab dan Persia mengalir di tubuhnya. Sepeninggal ayahnya, Abu Nawas kemudian dibawa ibunya ke kota Basra, Irak. Dia di sana belajar beberapa ilmu agama seperti ilmu Hadits, sastra Arab, dan ilmu Al-Quran. Abu Nawas dianggap sebagai salah satu penyair terbesar sastra Arab klasik ia digambarkan sosok yang bijaksana sekaligus kocak. Abu Nawas juga muncul beberapa kali dalam kisah Seribu Satu Malam dalam salah satu cerita ia pernah berpura pura gila karena tidak ingin menjadi kadi setelah mendengar wasiat ayahnya dengan cara menaiki batang pisang seperti kuda kudaan ia juga sering ditantang oleh raja Harun Ar-Rasyid maupun oleh teman temanya dengan hal yang aneh, beresiko dan bahkan tidak mungkin terjadi seperti memindahkan istana raja ke bukit, memantati raja dan lain lain. Memulai karir di Bagdad Tak lama setelah belajar ilmu-ilmu agama, Abu Nawas bertemu dengan Walibah ibn Habib Al-Asad. Walibah memberikan pelajaran kepada Abu Nawas untuk memperhalus kembali bahasa yang dia gunakan. Dia juga pergi ke Kufah untuk bertemu dengan orang-orang Arab Badui supaya ia dapat memperhalus serta memperdalam kesusastraan bahasa Arab. Oleh karena itu, tak lama kemudian Abu Nawas terkenal sebagai seseorang sastrawan cemerlang. Abu Nawas dengan cepat menjadi terkenal karena puisinya yang jenaka dan lucu, tidak berhubungan dengan tema-tema tradisional padang pasir, tetapi berbicara tentang kehidupan kota dan menyanyikan kegembiraan meminum anggur (khamr) dan cinta dari anak laki-laki muda dengan humor nakal. Puisi pujinya yang berisi puji-pujiaan memungkinkannya untuk ikut mendukung Khalifah Harun Ar-Rasyid, dan ia juga mengaitkan dirinya dengan keluarga wazir Barmak, yang saat itu berada di puncak kekuasaan mereka. Akhirnya, dia pun dipercaya sebagai orang kepercayaan oleh Khalifah Harun Ar-Rasyid, pemimpin dinasti Abbasiyah yang kelima. Pertaubatan Meski Abu Nawas pernah mendapat pendidikan agama, Abu Nawas di semasa mudanya adalah seseorang yang menyukai kehidupan hura-hura dan berpesta pora. Dia adalah seorang pemabuk berat Hal ini dapat diketahui melalui beberapa tema-tema puisi yang dia ciptakan di saat masa mudanya dulu. Syair-syairnya masa itu lebih banyak bercerita tentang minuman, wanita dan cinta. Tapi meski seorang pemabuk, kepiawaiannya dalam mencipta syair ketika itu nyaris tak tertandingi. Terbukti, walaupun dalam keadaan mabuk ia tetap mampu menelurkan mutiara-mutiara kata yang indah. Hingga pada suatu saat, ketika Abu Nawas membacakan puisi tentang Kafilah Bani Mudhar, dia dihukum karena membuat Khalifah murka karena isi puisi itu sangat menyinggung sang Khalifah. Abu Nawas pun dipenjara karenanya. Sejak mendekam di penjara, puisi-puisi Abu Nawas berubah, menjadi religius. Jika sebelumnya ia sangat pongah dengan kendi tuaknya, kini ia lebih pasrah kepada kekuasaan Allah. Syair-syairnya tentang tobat bisa dipahami sebagai salah satu ungkapan rasa keagamaannya yang tinggi.

In the days since the Trump administration ordered a lethal drone strike in Baghdad on Iran’s second-most powerful man, Qassem Soleimani, Iranian officials have promised “vigorous vengeance” against the U.S. and chants of “death to America” were heard in the Iranian parliament. On Sunday, as anti-war protests broke out across the United States, a funeral for Soleimani brought thousands of mourners to the streets in the Iranian city of Ahvaz. Today on Front Burner, as tensions ratchet up, we talk with national security expert Heather Hurlburt about what could happen next.

“A cowardly act funded by Saudi Arabia and the UAE and supported by the US”. That’s how the leader of Iran’s Islamic revolution has described Saturday’s terror attack on a military parade in the Iranian city of Ahvaz. Iranians paid their last respects to 25 people among them civilians, including women and children, who lost their lives in the incident. Western media has largely refrained from calling the mishap an act of terrorism.

I den fjärde delen berättar den iranske ingenjören Ameen Al-Kaabi om sitt arbete på oljefälten utanför Ahvaz och om den närapå fatala båtfärden över Egeiska Havet.

In this episode, Kamyar and Rustin parse out the different narratives circulating around the September 22 terrorist attack in Ahvaz/Ahwaz. They discuss Narges Bajoghli's recent article in Foreign Policy, ["Did a Terrorist Attack Just Save the Iranian Regime?"](http://https://foreignpolicy.com/2018/09/26/did-a-terrorist-attack-just-save-the-iranian-regime/). Dr Bajoghli is a friend of Ajam, and has appeared on the Emerging Scholarship Series to discuss her research on the [media and cultural production of Iran-Iraq War paramilitary veterans](http://https://ajammc.com/2015/09/27/emerging-scholarship-bajoghli-paramilitary-media/). Joshua Sooter, a PhD candidate in History and East Asian Studies at New York University joins the show to talk about the ongoing conflict in China's Xinjiang Province. The conversation covers the history of Chinese western expansion and current-day state repression of the Uyghur population.
