Discrimination Against Sunni Mosques in Iran

To explain why there's no mosque for Sunnis in Tehran.

Yes, they do not allow a mosque for Sunnis in Tehran.

They do not allow Sunnis to open mosques in the other major cities.

For example, Isfahan, Tabriz, Yazd, Kerman.

These cities have Sunnis.

There are no mosques for them there.

There aren't any. They don't allow it.

So, they allow it only in some areas.

Yes, except in traditional Sunni areas or in the areas where

Sunnis are a minority. Even in Ahvaz, they don't allow it, although many Sunnis are

converts. Ahvaz is a Shiite city, so the

people or the youth started becoming Sunnis, so they say, "We

won't allow it." "Why? Because you're Shiites." They say, "You say

of course,

you, the Iranian regime, say that Shiites and Sunnis are brothers."

And some young people say, "We were Shiites, now we have become

Sunnis. We don't want political problems, we want a mosque."

They say, "No, come pray in our mosques."

Then why should we pray in your mosques? Why don't you

pray in our mosques in Sunni cities and small villages?

In places with only one or two Shiite families, you build a mosque

and a Husseiniya for two or three families.
