This document summarizes the story of Rustum and Sohrab from the Persian epic poem Shahnameh. It describes how Rustum married the king's daughter Tamineh and had a son named Sohrab with her, but Tamineh told Rustum the child was a daughter to prevent Rustum from taking their son away. Years later, the grown Sohrab challenges unknown warriors to fights, and ends up unknowingly fighting his own father Rustum in battle, where Rustum fatally wounds Sohrab before discovering they are father and son.
