In today's world, this role is intended for helpers in their daily lives. The key to resembling brokers and helpers is helping people in need. This study, which uses library resources and a descriptive-analytic approach, explores the role of Zale and Roodabeh in Ferdowsi's Shahnameh, with an approach to Sindhokht's personality and the theoretical foundations of individual assistance. The results of the research show that the main mission of Sindhokht in the story is to ensure the connection between Zal and Roodabeh and to provide the necessary background for the birth of Rustam and the direction of the epic path. He has also prevented the formation of a bloody battle between the Iranians and the Kabulis, with a detailed personality and the pathology of the problem and crisis. In this story, the reinterpretation of the Siddiqui relatives illustrates the significant presence of women in transgender and social currents. Sindhokht represents a dynamic and influential woman in organizing interpersonal and social relationships. In addition to Sindhokht, another woman at the beginning of the story brings Zal and Rudaba together and ties them together.
