Muslims in Iran, in 2020, are a minority!Reader comment on item: When Muslims Leave the Faith Submitted by dhimmi no more (United States), Sep 26, 2020 at 08:50 Dr Pipes, You might be interested in reading this study of "Iranians Attitudes Towards Religion, A 2020 Survey Report" Notice that the number of Shi'a Muslims in Iran is only 32.2% and even if we add the number of Sunnis and Suffis in Iran, which is a total of 8.2%, the total number of Muslims in Iran is only 40.4%. This means that Muslims in Iran are really a minority and it seems to be happening so fast. May be Firdawsi was correct in his epic poem: The Shahnemah, where he said, and I'm paraphrasing, there will always be the real Iran of the Shahenshah (The King of Kings)!
