Majid Sharif was an Iranian writer and translator who became a victim of the state-sponsored political assassinations known as the Chain Murders. On November 19, 1998, he left his mother's home in the Yousef Abad neighborhood of Tehran wearing a tracksuit and never returned home. His disappearance and subsequent death remain a significant event in the history of political violence in Iran. As an intellectual and writer, his loss is remembered as part of a targeted series of crimes against dissidents and cultural figures during that era.

مجید شریف نویسنده و مترجم ایرانی بود که در ۲۸ آبان ۱۳۷۷ پس از خروج از منزل مادرش در محله یوسف‌آباد تهران ناپدید شد. او در حالی که لباس گرم‌کن بر تن داشت از خانه خارج شد و دیگر هرگز بازنگشت. واقعه ناپدید شدن و مرگ او به عنوان بخشی از ترورهای سیاسی حکومتی موسوم به «قتل‌های زنجیره‌ای» در تاریخ معاصر ایران ثبت شده است. نام مجید شریف به عنوان یکی از چهره‌های فرهنگی و دگراندیشی که قربانی خشونت‌های سیاسی هدفمند شدند، در حافظه جمعی باقی مانده است. قتل او بخشی از سلسله جنایاتی بود که در آن دوران نویسندگان و فعالان سیاسی را مورد هدف قرار می‌داد.
