Abstract

Excerpts from Zadsperm is a text in the Pahlavi language that was written by the young Zadsperm of Jam Hirbod Sirjan in the third century AH with the aim of preserving the life of Zoroastrianism. The present article is based on the content analysis approach to examine the social status of women. In order to be able to answer the question of what factors affect the social conditions of women in this text? Studies show that although in a few cases, men and women are considered together, regardless of gender, but according to social norms, innate spirituality and spirituality belong to men and the fateful affairs of the universe. It is ruled by male forces. This belief is very similar to the ideas of the Zarwani religion. Findings indicate that the text is influenced by common social beliefs at the time of writing, such as the Zarwani religion. In other words, the attainment of sacred concepts belongs primarily to men, and women enjoy spiritual matters through men. Therefore, in parallel with this view, the devil can not directly dominate men, and this is done through women. Does.
