Freidoune Sahebjam

    Freidoune Sahebjam was een Frans-Iraanse journalist en romanschrijver. Zijn geschriften duiken vaak in dringende sociale en politieke kwesties, waarbij hij menselijk lijden en onrecht onderzoekt. Sahebjam schreef met een gevoel van urgentie en compassie, gericht op het werpen van licht op vergeten of onderdrukte verhalen. Zijn romans zijn diep geworteld in reportages en persoonlijke getuigenissen, wat hen een onrustbarende authenticiteit verleent. Door zijn onderscheidende narratieve aanpak vestigde hij de aandacht op cruciale, maar vaak over het hoofd geziene aspecten van de menselijke ervaring.

    Reading Moses, Seeing Jesus: How the Torah Fulfills Its Goal in Yeshua
    • This book addresses the questions about the believer's relationship to the Torah (the five Books of Moses, or the Pentateuch) and its commandments (the Law): Since Jesus kept the Law, are believers (Jewish and Gentile) also obliged to keep the Law, or at least some portions of it (Sabbath, the food laws, etc.)? What about the Oral Law (rabbinic traditions)? How does the Torah point to the Messiah? How do we apply the Law of Moses today? Though this book is based on more than a decade of academic research, it is written with the non-academic reader in mind and provides easy-to-understand answers to the questions related to the Torah and does so in a manner thoroughly rooted in a careful reading of the biblical text.

    • Soraya M.’s husband, Ghorban-Ali, couldn’t afford to marry another woman. Rather than returning Soraya’s dowry, as custom required before taking a second wife, he plotted with four friends and a counterfeit mullah to dispose of her. Together, they accused Soraya of adultery. Her only crime was cooking for a friend’s widowed husband. Exhausted by a lifetime of abuse and hardship, Soraya said nothing, and the makeshift tribunal took her silence as a confession of guilt. They sentenced her to death by stoning: a punishment prohibited by Islam but widely practiced. Day by day—sometimes minute by minute—Sahebjam deftly recounts these horrendous events, tracing Soraya’s life with searing immediacy, from her arranged marriage and the births of her children to her husband’s increasing cruelty and her horrifying execution, where, by tradition, her father, husband, and sons hurled the first stones. A stark look at the intersection between culture and justice, this is one woman’s story, but it stands for the stories of thousands of women who suffered—and continue to suffer—the same fate. It is a story that must be told.
