Incidents was the name of a magazine that was closed by the Islamic Republic of Iran for being "obscene and empty" in 1995. It reported homicides, pre-marital and extramarital affairs, and other sex related matters that can be punished by religious law.

The Persian words Havades or Hadeseh reportedly mean Incidents.
