From The New Arab:

This Iranian mosque design is angering hardliners for being 'too Jewish'

A new “controversial” minimalist mosque, which departs from traditional early Islamic architecture is being condemned for ignoring tradition and subtly pushing 'secular and Jewish influence' into the country.

The architects behind the Vali-e-Asr Mosque dispensed with the traditional rounded domes and towering minarets, opting instead for a modern design of undulating waves of grey stone and concrete, which they say complements the surrounding architecture and evokes the austerity of early Islam.

The new Mosque has angered hard-liners, who see it as part of a creeping secular onslaught on the Islamic republic. An editorial posted on the Mashregh news website compared the curvature to that of a Jewish yarmulke, accusing authorities of "treason" for approving it. The "completely neutral" design betrays an "atheistic approach," it said.
Notice once again that while Iranians claim not to be against Jews...they are.

If Iranians are upset over any perceived Jewish influence on their culture, well, I have some bad news about Islam for them....
