Shi'i Islam is the dominating religion in the Iranian society. About 88% of all Iranians are Shi'is (this applies to all peoples of the country). About 8% are Sunni Muslims, 2% Baha'is, and more than 1% are Christians.
There are also small communities (around 50,000 each) of Jews and Parsians (followers of the lore of Zarathustra). |
