Consider this description of a person living around 1600: learn a living weaving rugs for traders to sell along the
Persian Gulf. Though my family and I are Christians, the
shah and his soldiers mostly leave us alone. Unfortunately,
the same is not true for the Sunni Muslims I know. They
refuse to become Shia Muslims, and as a result some of
them have been jailed or beaten and threatened with
worse.
