Biography Turan was born Qamar ol-Molouk Amirsoleimani in 1905. Her father, Isa Khan Majd es-Saltaneh, was a son of Majd ed-Dowleh (a first cousin of Naser al-Din Shah Qajar). She continued her education until earning her diploma from Namous High School in Tehran. In 1922, she married Reza Khan, who was the minister of war at the time.

The Iranian Revolution ( fa, انقلاب ایران, Enqelâb-e Irân, ), also known as the Islamic Revolution ( fa, انقلاب اسلامی, Enqelâb-e Eslâmī), was a series of events that culminated in the overthrow of the Pahlavi dynasty under Shah Mohammad Reza Pahlavi, and the replacement of his government with an Islamic republic under the rule of Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini, a leader of one of the factions in the revolt. The revolution was supported by various Organizations of the Iranian Revolution, leftist and Islamist organizations.
