The Bahá'í Faith has its origins in Persia (now called Iran); the majority religion there is Shia Islam. However, the first official proclamation (the founder, Bahá'u'lláh, formally stated that he was the Messenger of God expected according to previous prophecies) was in Baghdad, which was then part of the Ottoman (Turkish) empire. The majority religion there is Sunna Islam.
