Especially emphatic are Zoroastrian beliefs on the end of the world - heaven and hell and resurrection. Their ancient fire temples are scattered all over Iran where they have been much persecuted in recent times. Fire temples are also found in Mumbai and Karachi which count large numbers of Parsi or Parsee adherents of Zoroastrianism.
