About The Queen Mother Nimtaj Ayromlu, Taj ol-Molouk
She was the daughter of General Teymur Tadfel Molouk Ayrumlu, and was the queen consort of Reza Shah, founder of the Pahlavi dynasty and Shah of Iran between 1925 and 1941. Her name means Crown of the King in Persian. She was an ethnic Iranian Azeri. The surname Ayrumlu is also known as Eyrumlu or Ayromloo.
Tadj ol-Molouk was the first queen of Iran to have played a public role, and to have performed an official position out in public society. She played an important part in the abolition of the veil in Iran during the reign of her husband. In the winter of 1934, Reza Shah demanded the presence of the queen and the two princesses in an official ceremony at the Teheran Teacher's College. All three were present at this ceremony and were dressed in Western clothes, without a veil. This was the first time an Iranian queen showed herself in public. Afterwards, the Shah had pictures of his wife and daughters published; other men were ordered to unveil their wives and daughters. With this, the veil was abolished. Her spouse was deposed in 1941.
Tadj ol-Molouk had four children: Shams Pahlavi, Mohammad Reza Pahlavi, the last Shah of Iran, and his twin sister Ashraf, and Ali Reza Pahlavi I.
She died in Acapulco (Mexico) after a lengthy battle with leukemia seven days before her 86th birthday.
