Shokufeh ( Persian : شكوقه; DMG : Šokūfeh ; German : "blossom") was a Persian-language women's magazine .

After the appearance of the first Persian-language women's magazine Danesh (1910–1911) in Tehran , the next Persian press for women only followed in 1913 with the establishment of Shokufeh. The editor was Maryam Amid Mozayen ol-Saltaneh, the daughter of Aqa Mirza Sayyed Razi Ra'is al-Atebba, a senior medical advisor at the Qajar court. Mozayen ol-Saltaneh founded the Iranian women's society Anjoman Khavatin Irani at almost the same time, whose goals she published in Shokufeh. In particular, she advocated the promotion of Iranian products and industry, as well as education, science and the arts among women.

In the beginning, the magazine mainly dealt with topics such as equality, education, upbringing, hygiene and morality. In the course of the work of the Iranian Women's Society, the issues became increasingly political, with national independence and the role of women being the main subjects. Shokufeh claimed not to interfere in the political sphere of men, which she did not always succeed, which is why the magazine came under the spotlight of the censors .

After the editor's death in 1919, the magazine ceased to appear.

A complete and freely accessible online version of the journal can be found in the digital collections of the University and State Library of Bonn .
