Currently, Christianity is growing in Iran. It reached a low point in the mid-1990s and has begun an upswing. There are currently around 109,000 Christians in Iran. Most of the growth is due to Assyrians fleeing persecution in Iraq.
However, it is worth noting that conversion from Islam (the dominant religion) to Christianity is a death-penalty crime in Iran. Youcef Nadarkhani was arrested for this crime, but the charges were dropped after intense foreign pressure and an Amnesty International Campaign.
