![A betrothal - Ganzibra Salwan came from Sweden to be engaged to a Mandaean girl from Iran. According to Mandaean tradition, the Mandaean priest must marry a virgin girl from halali family (i.e. ritually pure for seven generations). In October 2015 Tarmida Taleb performed the marriage ceremony (Qabeen) for Ganzibra Salwan and his fiancée and was elevated to ganzibra rank. Notes from Yuhana Nashmi's fieldwork, including the Parwanaya (Panja) festival and travels in Khuzestan, March 2015.
