Summary
| Description |
English: According to the General Constitution of the community (established in the 1990s), all candidates for priesthood need to undergo religious tests and obtain official endorsement of the General Assembly of the community. Shwalia Anmar has been through religious tests in reading, writing and understanding of ritual from other senior priests with social endorsement by the Community Council in Baghdad, comprising representatives from each big family in the community. Here, Rishamma Sattar and Tarmida Raad Al Zuhairi (who passed away in 2010) examine Shwalia Anmar during a special meeting of the general assembly in 2008. Shwalia Anmar passed, obtaining full recognition from both priests and representatives.
Photograph from the initiation of Anmar al-Zuhairi, Baghdad, 2008. This process is long and complex, comprising many rituals, some of which are performed differently from other occasions. |
