I'm not Iranian, but I'm a Shia Muslim who loves Iran and used to visit every few years and had to cancel my trip in Ramadan. Every time there's a negative update about the war or new threats from Trump I get anxious thinking about the people there.I don't mean to be insensitive. I just want to know how people are coping with this because I'm having a hard time thinking about the possibility of the war starting again.

With one of them being the monarchy state run by Reza Pahlavi. They are openly admitting their agenda yet the monarchists still support them. The person talking is the son of an anousi who fled Iran, he was the director of a bank that embezzled millions.

Or do other people sometimes mistake this sub's logo for Eric Cartman too?

Every time I see it out of the corner of my eye, on a small screen, I think I'm looking at a South Park subreddit!

Sorry. I'll show myself out. :-)

Hi everyone, is Instagram currently officially blocked in Iran right now, or do you still need a reliable VPN to access it? I'm looking for quick, accurate updates from anyone who is currently living in Iran or know about this, thank you

I apologize if I sound uneducated but I was just wondering if it were alright to call someone from Iran Persian rather than Iranian. I do not intend for this to be rude at all but I feel Persian rolls of the tongue a bit better. If there is an underlying reason as to why you don't identify as Persian, I totally understand and will say Iranian with no apprehension whatsoever.

Salam everyone, hope you all doing good!! I’m curious to know and learn about how much commission does real estate agents charge generally for a property purchase via them or for having a rental from them signed? Would appreciate insight from someone knowledgeable in Iranian real estate market.

It's been forever since I've interacted with someone who lives inside Iran, I live in Qom and man I feel like everyone here just wanna scroll reels. People don't even know Reddit exists (maybe a few in Tehran but nothing in Qom)

Salam everyone,

Hope yall doing good! I was curious to know and learn why is Iranian driving seems so, tough for a westerner who plans to visit Iran 🇮🇷 ? I was planning to visit Iran in few months and the most toughest thing that actually shook me up is the driving part. I don’t see anyone following any rules while watching the videos so, was curious to know how do insurance companies in Iran determine who is at fault usually?

Has anyone born or raised from west been successful at driving in Iran while they were visiting? If yes please feel free to share your insights here!

Here’s one of the few videos I watched on YouTube:

Hello, I hope this post is acceptable.

I am an American who lives in the United States of America. One of my doctors is an Iranian immigrant. He has helped me so very much in my health, and my gratitude to him is immense. I would like to present him with a gift/thank you card. In the USA, gifts are frequently given on Christmas in a secular fashion even though it's technically a Christian holiday. I thought it'd be nice to surprise him by either (1) giving him a gift/thank you card on an appropriate Iranian holiday, or (2) giving him a "classic" Iranian gift (not sure of my terminology - something that's be very common to give in Iran but not in other countries, for example). Or both!

Thank you for any guidance you can provide.
