Religion in Iran 1AD to 2022

Religion in Iran has been shaped by multiple religions and sects over the course of the country's history. Zoroastrianism was the main religion during the Achaemenid Empire (550–330 BC), the Parthian Empire (247 BC – 224 AD) and the Sasanian Empire (224–651 AD). In 651 AD, the Rashidun Caliphateconquered Persia and spread Islam as the main religion. Sunnism was the predominant form of Islam before the devastating Mongol conquest, but subsequently, Shi'ism became eventually utterly dominant in all of Iran with the advent of the Safavids. The current religious demographics of Iran are disputed. According to the 2011 Iranian census, 99.98% of Iranians believe in Islam, while the rest of the population believe in other officially recognized minority religions: Christianity, Judaism, and Zoroastrianism.However, because irreligion and some other religions are not recognized by the Iranian government and apostasy from Islam may be subject to capital punishment, government figures may be distorted. A 2020 survey by the World Values Survey found that 96.6% of Iranians believe in Islam.On the other hand, another 2020 survey conducted online by an organization based outside of Iran found a much smaller percentage of Iranians identifying as Muslim (32.2% as Shia, 5.0% as Sunni, and 3.2% as Sufi), and a significant fraction not identifying with any organized religion (22.2% identifying as "None," and some others identifying as atheists, spiritual, agnostics, and secular humanists) _________________________________________________ #zoroastrianism #religion_iran #iran_religions #buddhism_iran #islam_iran #iranpopulation #iranshia #iran_christanity #hindus_iran #islamiciran #iranprotests #iranian #iran_diversity #dataeye _________________________________________________ Thanks for watching Data eye
