Zahir attended Unity High School in Khartoum, where she was a contemporary of Zarouhi Sarkissian. Unity High School primarily educated the children of foreigners, and Zahir's attendance at the institution was met with disapproval by the family's neighbours. Some acquaintances of the family wrote letters to Zahir's father, urging him to encourage her to end her education and become a teacher, as she was already too "outspoken." The pressure did not sway Assadati.
