Mohammed Bijeh was born on May 21, 1970, in Torbat-e Heydarieh, a city in Razavi Khorasan Province, Iran. He grew up in a large family, having six brothers and six half-brothers. When he was just four years old, his mother passed away due to cancer. After his mother's death, his father, who worked as a merchant, remarried quickly. Bijeh did not have any memories of his mother and described his father as a harsh and abusive man. He claimed that his father often physically punished him and used to chain his legs.
Due to his difficult home life, Bijeh was forced to leave school at a young age. At the age of 11, he and his family moved to a place called Khatunabad. There, he had to start working at a furnace to help support the family. During this time, he faced severe abuse, as he reported that he was raped multiple times.
