Tehran: 17 Iranian Sunni Muslims faced death sentence in the country after the local government termed people to act against the commandment of God and violating the law. Six of the termed executed had then pleaded for UN intervention in this regard to save their lives but no action had been taken by the human rights body and the accused were killed.
In Rajai Shahr, west of Iran the imprisoned had been severely tortured and forced to admit to the charge imposed on them. International Campaign for Human Rights in Iran state that prisoners had confessed to their activities hence they could not be saved.
It is pertinent here to mention that the Muslims across the globe, including those in Syria, Libya, and Egypt are facing massacre and unrest is witnessed among the Muslim countries. However the happening of such incidents is evidence of racial, sect discrimination that prevails even in the Islamic countries based on differences in religious practices.
Since last 8 years around 200 Sunni Muslims have been victim of oppression in Iran where they have had been deprived of their rights in all the fields of the society. Among the areas that are largely targeted include Bukan, Sardasht, Piranshahr, Javansar, Saghez and Javanrood.
[junkie-alert style=”white”] Out 0f the 17, six of them have been executed with their bodies even not returned to their families. [/junkie-alert]
A petition by a Sunni Muslim news medium has pleaded to stop the executions. The Sunni Muslim targeting in Iran calls for urgent action and intervention from the UN and the Human Rights Activists in Iran.

True.. Iran and Saudi Arabia are doing this not for sectarian reason but for political power.. both countries are using their ppl
Anwar Haider
This is not true. Wahabi and Saudi agents are trying to defame Iran but. We Muslim Shia will crsuh these Wahabis and their agents..

I am living in Iran and Irani government is suppressing sunni muslims. we are not allow to practice openly
kashif

The motives of the contributor seems dubious. When it comes to sectarianism, problem and extremism regarding this has been present for centuries and centuries.
We mustn’t criticise the internal matters of shy country as we are only available with one perspective and not the complete picture.
Hazara Community Massacre in Pakistan is a huge and devastating incident but still we seem to ignore it for two reasons, one-we live jn safer society than those ill fated people and we are not affected ones, two-that is an internal issue of Pakistan.
We should exhibit tolerance and respect to the matters of other countries.

Why islamic world think that Iran and it,s foloower are Muslims.They are also enemies of Muslims like Jews,Chirstians, and other non-muslims forces.One thing is confirmed,either we are muslims or iranian and supporters.

This is true that Tehran is the only capital in the world where there is no sunni mosque. Even Jews in Iran are in a much better condition than sunnis. Irani Government is suppressing sunnis in Iran and this is not fair.

Yes the government of Iran is only supporting shia they don’t follow freedom of mankind they not have kindness and justice for Sunni,s in Iran but ALLAH is always with Sunni Muslims ,that is not the end ,a new real time will start after ending this world and will see them there…INSHA ALLAH…………

Whatever Iran is doing is totally unacceptable to any Muslim. They are infact persecuting Sunnis for the sake of being Sunnis. There no Sunni Mosque in Tehran, a Sunni cannot be the member of Parliament in Iran and also they are not allowed to practice their religion openly. While in Pakistan the shias live freely, they are members of parliament, even our president was shia, they practice shiaism openly even they come in streets during ashura which is unislamic according to Sunni faith. They have the sign of a hand and black flags on their houses, they have imam bargahs in all the cities in Pakistan. The government of Pakistan has no policy to persecute shias officially contrary to Iran. Iran must stop this non sense now. Whether it is political or religous it cannot be justified on any grounds. Why Sunnis cannot have a mosque in Tehran if Shias can have Imam bargah in Islamabad and a jew can have a synagogue in Tehran. Why cannot a Sunnis become a member of parliament if Shia can be a member of parliament in Pakistan.
Abdur Rauf Abbasi
The only solution to Sunnis problem in Iran is tit for tat… Do the same with Shias in Pakistan what Iran is doing to Sunnis in Iran. You will see the good change in Iran.
radde rawafidh shia
You are right 100%….and it’s true….
Muhammad Adrees
true…….Iran is worst enemy of sunni Muslims also islam………Allah hadith de in iran walon ko
Sheikh Riaz
It happend just only 25 years after the creation of Islam: between Hazrat Ali RTA and Hazrat Muavia RTA
Ahmed Khoso
You are wrong in this regard. These are neither from Hazrat Ali Radi ALLAHU Anhu, nor from Hazrat Muawiya Radi ALLAHU Anhu. They were followers of AbdULLAH Ibn Saba’a, who was from yemen. Worst of Mushrikeen. Dirtiest humans on earth. Jews and Shia Rawafidh have so many things in common.
khan
brothers cant u talk of muslims or momins instead of shia sunni wahabi barelvi etc n etc none of these existed n the time of the prophet or khulafa e rashedeen they all have been created to divide n missguide us by our enemies dont u understand. instead of preaching this unislamic divide plz preach anti sectarianism n one ummah msg. thnx to all
SJ
Although I am a Shia I condemn this act of brutality by Iran. Never should a country support inhuman practices based over a person’s religious belief. We are no one to decide who is good and who is bad or who is more muslim and who’s less. When Allah does’nt stop his blessings over non muslims , then who are we to make life misearble for anyone at all. We are all humans first before anything and humanity demands a lot of wisdom. While, this does’nt look like wisdom at all.
ali
you all bloody people are quoting wrong information, Iran is the leader of islamic world. the sunni arab and other counteries are mony paid agent of Jews and you people are wrost than jews. Allah will distroy you and your masters like Afghanistan and Iraq. We shias of pakistan is quite enough for you. if you are son of real father then come to us we will teach you a lesson.
akhtar
All people who are criticize Iranian Government policies and behaviours regarding sunni, do you know there is no difference between Sunni & Shia but Wahabies In Saudia no one except sunni could not preaches their views. minorities like shia in Saudia and other Arabian countries have no equal rights as compare to Sunni, So if Irani do something against wahabis so they should it because according to Shia wahabies are not muslim
