Mahmoud:Well, things will be raised later; I just wanted to tell you why I got out, and how I got out, which was in an illegal way, and how I’ve been here. If you ask me any question, I’ll answer it.

Mahnaz:Well, what about your life here?

Here it seemed socially inconsiderate and disrespectful of me to persist in not giving Mahmoud a ‘cue’ as to what he could talk about. Having given Mahmoud the SQUIN (single question inducing narrative ), my interviewee seemed to be struggling with where to go next, and he had only just told me very briefly how it had come about that he had left Iran, the circumstances of how he had left, and how he had come to England. Hollway and Jefferson highlight the composition of the word, ‘compassion’ as ‘with and feeling’, and argue that ‘[i]f there is no feeling with research participants, the results will be unethical’ (Hollway and Jefferson 2012, p. 164). Although most of the interviewees did not ask such questions during the interviews, when it was raised, as in this case, I felt ‘obliged’ to answer with a brief response.
