Does your country object to any, all, or some of the religions of another country? Briefly explain.
Iran objects to the Jewish religion just as other regions do. Judaism has many enemies. Israel was not always Israel. It used to be a different area against the Jews. However, the Jews regained the territory. Unfortunately, Israel is surrounded by enemies...some of whom have fought the Jews, some have enslaved them...i.e. Egypt. Others have tried to exterminate them.
Define Sharia.
Sharia is the sacred law of Islam: based on the Qur'an and the oral traditions (Sunna) of the Prophet Muhammad.
What role does Sharia play in your country?
Sharia is the Islamic law. The islamic religion AKA Muslim is the most common throughout Iran. Iranians use the law of Sharia to determine which parent, in a divorce, gets custody of the children as soon as they reach a certain age. It also requires them to pray and use a particular type of passport while traveling whether they are within Iran or not. Sharia plays a large role in Iran.
What role does religion and state play in your government?
Religion and state in Iran play an important role it it's government. Some of the governmental actions are based on religious beliefs as well as some concern for the state so long as the government remains in control.
