Religion in Iran
According to the CIA World Factbook, around 90–95%〔(Iran, CIA – World Factbook ).〕 of Iranians associate themselves with the Shi'a branch of Islam, the official state religion, and about 5–10% with the Sunni and Sufi branches of Islam. The remaining 0.6% associate themselves with non-Islamic religious minorities, including Bahá'ís, Mandeans, Yarsanis, Zoroastrians, Jews, and Christians.〔
〕 The latter three minority religions are officially recognized and protected, and have reserved seats in the Iran parliament.〔Colin Brock,Lila Zia Levers. (''Aspects of Education in the Middle East and Africa'' ) Symposium Books Ltd, 7 mei 2007 ISBN 1873927215 p 99〕 Zoroastrianism was once the majority religion, though today Zoroastrians number only in the tens of thousands.〔 Iran is home to the second largest Jewish community in the Muslim World and the Middle East.〔https://www.jewishvirtuallibrary.org/jsource/Judaism/jewpop.html (10,200 vs 17,400 in Turkey)〕 Christianity, the second largest non-Muslim minority religion, has the largest annual growth rate of all religions. Bahá'í Faith, Iran's largest non-Muslim religious minority, is not officially recognized, and has been persecuted during its existence in Iran.〔United Nations (2005-11-02) (Human rights questions: human rights situations and reports of special rapporteurs and representatives ) General Assembly, Sixtieth session, Third Committee. A/C.3/60/L.45〕
The Iranian government does not officially recognise the existence of non-religious Iranians. This leaves the true representation of the religious split in Iran unknown as all non-religious, spiritual, atheist, agnostic and converts away from Islam are likely to be included within the government statistic of the 99% Muslim majority.〔(Iran, CIA – World Factbook ).〕 Sunnism was the predominant form theology before the devastating Mongol conquest, but subsequently Shi'ism became eventually utterly dominant in all of Iran and modern-day Azerbaijan with the advent of the Safavids.〔(Fensham, F. Charles, "The books of Ezra and Nehemiah" (Eerdmans, 1982) ) p.1〕
