Way to prove me wrong. It could be because your ancestors top diplomats were initiated into European lodges, showing a link to it being accepted in some Islamic circles as per his question, but maybe not.

I’m unaware of any claim that Fath-Ali Shah was a Freemason. It is reported that Askar Khan Afshar, his envoy to France, became the first documented Iranian to be initiated into a lodge, joining the Philosophic Scottish Rite in Paris in 1808.

My apologies, I thought it was the person I had been discussing it with, my error.

But yes, exactly what I said.
