This map shows how hussainiyas are distributed across Iran's different provinces. The information on this map was obtained through an examination of Google Maps. The total number of the country's registered hussainiyas on Google Maps comes to about 3,100.The highest number of hussainiyas has been registered in Fars Province (353) and the lowest number in Alborz and Kurdistan (13). After Fars, the provinces of Khuzestan, Kerman, Isfahan, and Razavi Khorasan have the highest numbers of hussainiyas, in that order.
Overall, the number of hussainiyas in the central and southern provinces is higher than in the northern and western provinces. Of course, the distribution pattern of hussainiyas may also be related to the population and the ethnic and religious composition of the provinces.
In provinces such as Khuzestan that have a larger population, a larger number of hussainiyas has also been registered. But there are exceptions as well. For example, Yazd, despite a smaller population than some other provinces, has a large number of hussainiyas. In addition, the number of hussainiyas is higher in more religious provinces such as Qom and Mashhad.
