An excerpt from the life of a woman author of the seventies with 4 children / from marriage and education to excellent activity in the field of Mahdism
Fars Mazandaran News Agency – Social ServiceIn recent decades, various issues such as lifestyle changes, declining marriage rates, declining public desire for children, immigration, and economic issues have caused the Iranian population to age.
The sharp decline in average population growth and the aggravation of this situation have led the authorities to implement policies to rid the country of aging and to consider incentives to lead public opinion towards childbearing and population growth.
The growth and excellence and survival of Iranian families depend on the youth of the population
The Youth and Family Support Plan recently approved by the Guardian Council illustrates this point; In this plan, the incumbent government was determined to remove the obstacles in the way of the youth so that having children would be a ground to prevent the aging of the country’s population; On the other hand, the Supreme Leader’s emphasis on increasing the number and explaining the positive consequences of childbearing is a clear proof that the growth, excellence and survival of Iranian families depend on keeping the population young.
A woman author of the seventies who has four children, in addition to her motherly mission, also pursues education and social and cultural activities, and on the other hand, obtaining higher academic degrees is one of her priorities in life.
This successful and young lady of Mazandaran stated that her goal of having children was first of all a religious belief and then to put into practice the menus of leadership and their emphasis on population growth. Do not deprive more and ensure the survival, peace and blessing of their lives by increasing the number of children.
Ms. Mona Ebrahimi Lady of the seventies Or, to be precise, he was born on April 17, 1971, and at the age of 17 he got married and has four children. I am planning to take a bachelor’s degree and higher degrees.
In the following conversation, we wrote an excerpt from this lady’s life.
* I have cultural activities
فارس: Explain about your past and pre-marriage activities!
Ebrahimi: I was active in student mobilization and neighborhood mobilization, I participated in weekly poetry night programs. In high school, I wrote children’s stories and got a city rank. I participated in cultural competitions and was not without a top rank. At the age of 16, I wrote the story “Narcissus” and published this book after my marriage.
فارس: Explain the content of the book “Nersa”:
Ebrahimi: In this book, an excerpt from the events of 1955 and before the revolution, the Holy Defense, as well as the life of a spiritual family and the life story of Hazrat Valiasr from the time of his birth and the last signs, have been written. Hazrat Vali is Asr.
* Printing books during pregnancy
فارس: When was your book published?
Ebrahimi: After marriage and during pregnancy. That is, I was pregnant in 1991 when I completed my book and published it with the support of my wife.
فارس: Explain about your current activity!
Ebrahimi: I am currently active in the field of Basij and this activity started in 1981. Since the beginning of 1997, I have been in charge of the Basij Center for Artists in Neka. Last year, I succeeded in receiving the plaque of the top commanders. During my studies, I wrote a short article and I am active in the field of Mahdism.
فارس: Tell us about your marriage and the age difference between your children?
Ebrahimi: I was 17 years old and my wife was 21 years old. My first child is two years old with his brother, the second and third child are 4 years old, and the third child is 18 months old with the fourth.
We are part of the middle class
فارس: The financial situation was in order. Did you have any economic problems?
Ebrahimi: Early in our life together, we had problems, but thanks to God, things got better, and my wife was a hard-working and persistent person, and over time, our situation got better. And to be more precise, right after the beginning of our life together, a problem occurred and my wife lost her job, but thanks to God, they managed to get a new job in a period of one year, and we still have a good financial situation and are among the strata. We are the middle of the society.
فارس: At what age was your first child born? Did it not hinder your activity?
Ebrahimi: My first child was born at the age of 20 in 1991, at the same time as my book was published. No.
فارس: Your spouse’s job if you do not have a problem and that you yourself wanted to have children or your spouse?
Ebrahimi: My wife has a freelance job. And they are active and hardworking. I persuaded my wife to increase the number of children with all my might, and now my wife enjoys these successes and blessings.
Fars: Are your children well off? And does your income and expenses match?
Ebrahimi: According to the custom of the society, our children have desirable facilities, whether in terms of clothes, food, entertainment, and travel, and I try to satisfy my children as a whole.
Two great formulas
Fars: Some people think that in order to have a child, even the first child must have a good financial situation, let alone an increase in people. How much do you believe in this?
Ebrahimi: If they rely on God and their parents try to generate halal income, and of course the level of expectation is low, these two formulas will undoubtedly have excellent results.
فارس: Explain the reaction of those around you to having children and the number of children you have.
Ebrahimi: The reaction was usually sharp and negative. Some sarcasm and ridicule. Some encourage; One in 50 people admired me for having children and having children in a row.
* I got a score of seventeen
فارس: Having children with this short distance did not hinder education. How did you cope with this problem?
Ebrahimi: No. The children did not stop. Perhaps their main obstacle was social activity and education. The mother’s mission in the family is to take care of her husband and children, and finally education and social activity. Of course, my grade point average was around 16-17, but due to my talent, I could have scored higher, but it was more important for me to take care of my children’s affairs.
* I like arguing with children
فارس: Many people in the community believe that education and childbearing are not incompatible. How did you manage this challenge?
Ebrahimi: I like both mind-boggling and school-going kids.
They warned! Why do you capture your child with so many young people?
فارس: Did anyone tell you why you had a child in this situation?
Ebrahimi: Yes – a lot over and over again. But in life, man is subject to his own goals and ideals and relies on his own findings and possessions. We are not going to use the opinions of others as a basis for making personal life decisions. They have repeatedly pointed out that the situation of society and the economic situation are not favorable, and why do you capture and age your child with so many young people? enjoy the life…
Fars: Didn’t what others said affect your will and determination to have more children?
Ebrahimi: I am not a fan of chanting. To this day, I have felt the existence of God in all moments of my life, and His existence alone and strongly is sufficient for my life. Praise be to God, I have a spirit that I did not base my decisions on words and hadiths. Surely God, who has promised us, has the air of His servants. If many children were problematic and bad, this holy thing would never have been recommended in this Islam.
فارس: Tell us more about the positive aspects of having children?
Ebrahimi: First of all, when you are raising a child, you avoid other unnecessary and useless work. Also, the family is the biggest support. Until no one has this blessing, he can not realize the beauties inside him. You should experience a large number of children to make the beauties of this world more tangible.
فارس: What was your goal in having children? Given that the lifestyle has changed and the motto of most young people is a better life, less children?
Ebrahimi: It was the will of God and the order of the Holy Prophet. I do not want to impose my opinion, and everyone has an opinion, maybe someone who believes that he experiences a better life with less children could not convince himself what other pleasurable aspects of living with more children have. Another important reason for young people’s reluctance to have children is the fading of beliefs. The moves are in a way towards individual entertainment.
فارس: Are you aware of the population youth plan and support for the Majlis family and the incentives they have for having children?
Ebrahimi: In 1993, the leadership announced a plan to increase the population, and I was pregnant with my second child at the height of the conflicts in my life. On the other hand, I just entered the seminary to study. The situation was such that I had to wake up early in the morning, prepare my son for kindergarten, and then I had to get to my seminary and classes quickly. In that situation, no one supported me in caring for my children, and I did not expect to thank God that he was always with me.
My first two children were boys, and I prayed to God that my third child would be a girl, and by God’s grace, I was enslaved, and God enslaved my daughter one day, and I was pregnant with my fourth child while I was caring for a sick mother. And I asked God to protect this child from disasters, as they did to me one day, because my mother was in such a condition that she needed help to sit and get up, and the risk of miscarriage was very high.
But my servant and my wife hid this issue due to the sharp reactions of those around us, and we announced two months before the birth, and God gave me a healthy and beautiful girl like my mother. My mother died four months before my birth. You should know that I only obeyed my leader’s wishes, even when the situation was not so favorable. But it is better to know that the lifestyle of a young Muslim was depicted 1400 years ago by my Prophet and my Imams.
Regarding the parliamentary support plan, I must say that we have not received any support, encouragement, etc. at the moment.
But in the Mother Glory project, we were guests of Quds province for a few days. A plan for mothers under the age of 40 who had 4 children.
In the Mazandaran provincial plan, I became one of the top 14 mothers.
فارس: What do you expect from the officials?
Ebrahimi: I do not expect other than my God and of course the Imam of the Age (pbuh) to bless and take care of our lives according to them so that we can raise righteous children.
فارس: Are you not a tenant?
We have been circulating the house of my father-in-law and my father for three years now to find a place where we do not have a house of our own.
Before we were born, we had a third child in an 84-meter apartment house, but with the increase in the number of children, and the fourth child, life became a little harder and we had to build a bigger house, or at least have a yard with this number of children, which unfortunately is not possible for us. Let the government support that we can provide even a small but courtyard house, at least the neighbors will get rid of my children’s mischief.
I should add that at the moment the conditions for my sons and I to study have become a bit difficult because the rooms are not in good condition.
فارس: Your advice to the buds?
Ebrahimi: Appreciate the opportunity of youth and health and do not miss this blessing and try to have more children. Living with a child makes it more enjoyable. Children are the source of joy and life and blessings of God, who gives us gifts without any intermediaries, and for each of them, brings goodness and blessings. Young people should not hesitate to have more children.
According to Fars, some time ago, Fatemeh Mohammadbeigi, a member of the Health Commission, announced in a TV program that the parliament was determined to implement the population youth plan and support the family, adding that 22,000 billion tomans of resources were allocated for the implementation of this plan.
The plan, which according to the official includes all incentives and special arrangements for the welfare of families and children, includes facilities such as maternity facilities, tax exemptions, insurance and health insurance facilities and housing facilities for third children and beyond, which are required by more than 5 ministries. Flow, culture and discourse were created for childbearing so that the blessings of this project would be operationally tangible for the people and the aging of the Iranian population would be prevented.
Mohammad Beigi mentioned 20 main reasons for the reluctance of families to have children and said: To overcome these challenges and for any reason, a grand strategy was adopted to rejuvenate the population and support families to literally remove barriers to childbearing. Be young people and families.
Providing facilities for student mothers, students with infants, and granting maternity cards to benefit from cultural services were some of the benefits of the Youth Plan, which the official noted.
In any case, reliable statistics show that in the last few years the marriage rate has decreased by about 40% and the childbearing rate by 30% and the fertility rate has reached 1.6%, and these numbers show that if all measures do not enter the operational phase, the situation Dangerously awaits our country.
Also, according to statistics, Mazandaranians, Gilanis and Tehranians are among the provinces that have the lowest fertility rate.
In the above report, we wrote an excerpt from the life of a young couple in the field. Despite economic and personal problems, they acted on the orders of the leadership and stated that their goal of having children was to obey the orders of the leadership.
It is hoped that the government and the parliament will spread the pulse of hope in the society by supporting these families and implementing this plan properly.
