Contemporary Persian and Classical Persian are the same language, but writers since 1900 are classified as contemporary. At one time, Persian was a common cultural language of much of the non-Arabic Islamic world. Today it is the official language of Iran, Tajikistan and one of the two official languages of Afghanistan.
This article is about a topic whose name is originally rendered in the Persian script; however the article does not have that version of its name in the article's lead paragraph.
