Yes. The Ahwaz Community represents the majority of Iranian Arabs. They live primarily in the provinces of Khuzestan and Hormozgan.

However, Persians are the dominant ethnic group in Iran, while Arabs are roughly 2% of the Iranian population.

Less than 3% of Iranians are ethnic Arabs. Roughly 61% of Iranians are Persians, another 16% are Azeris, 10% are Kurds, and 6% are Lurs. This shows how small a minority of Arabs are in Iran.

No, Iran is not considered an Arab country because its main language is Persian, not Arabic.

No, Iranians are Persians, descended from Indo-Europeans. Arabs are descended from Semitic folks. Iranians and Arabs do share an alphabet and some may share religious beliefs.
