Mohammad Doroudian was born in Tehran, Iran in 1959. He spent elementary school in one of the lower schools of Tehran. But because of the poor financial situation, he was forced to work and earn a living, so he went to night school in the second year of secondary school. Since 1980, his studies were interrupted by his presence in the Iran-Iraq War. In 1987, he was admitted to Shahid Beheshti University, but again due to the war he began his studies with two years delay in 1989. He finally completed his university studies in 1992 and obtained his bachelor's degree in history.[2][5][6]

Some of his most important theories include declaring 25 October 1980 as the day of the fall of Khorramshahr instead of 26 October 1980.

According to the available documents and reports, the defenders of Khorramshahr fought with zeal until the last moment.[53][54]
