In 6-7 centuries before Islam Persians believed in the Zoroastrian religion. The sun was holy, and people prayed for it as a symbol of God. When Islam arrived in the region and prohibited Zoroastrianism, people continued creating a symbol of the sun, but in the form of big flowers in their embroideries for home decor and costumes.
