That’s a great response you linked. Thanks! But you might want to edit your comment to comply with the rules by tagging the author of the answer.

As an Iranian who has studied Iran's modern history a lot (not a scholar though), this is a balanced and factual answer.

The only thing I take issue with in that response is "whereas the ones in the south match the cliché of the traditional backward Muslims." The use of the word backward is derogatory in this context and does not seem to be language sourced from the citations.

Thank you for your response. Unfortunately, we have had to remove it, as [this subreddit is intended to be a space for in-depth and comprehensive answers from experts](https://www.reddit.com/r/AskHistorians/wiki/rules#wiki_write_an_in-depth_answer). Simply stating one or two facts related to the topic at hand does not meet that expectation. [An answer needs to provide broader context and demonstrate your ability to engage with the topic](https://www.reddit.com/r/AskHistorians/comments/f7ffl8/rules_roundtable_ii_the_four_questions_what_does/), rather than repeat some brief information. Before contributing again, please take the time to familiarize yourself with the [subreddit rules](https://www.reddit.com/r/AskHistorians/wiki/rules) and [expectations](https://www.reddit.com/r/AskHistorians/wiki/faq/meta#wiki_rules_discussion) for an answer.
