Mashhad er hovedstaden af den iranske provins Razavi Khorasan.
Den 8. shi'a-Imam Ali ar-Riḍa døde her i 818. Hans grav er blevet mål for pilgrimsfærd og har gjort byen til en af shiadommens helligste. (Den oprindelige lille landsby hed "Sanabad"; det nye navn betyder "Martyriumssted".)
Mashhad er befolket af flertallet persere og minoriteter af kurdere og turkmener.[3][4]
Irans nuværende religiøse leder, Ali Khamenei, stammer fra Mashhad.
Indbyggertallet er ca. 2.500.000.

Flag of Iran.svg
Flag of Iran. The tricolor flag was introduced in 1906, but after the Islamic Revolution of 1979 the Arabic words 'Allahu akbar' ('God is great'), written in the Kufic script of the Qur'an and repeated 22 times, were added to the red and green strips where they border the white central strip and in the middle is the emblem of Iran (which is a stylized Persian alphabet of the Arabic word Allah ("God")).
The official ISIRI standard (translation at FotW) gives two slightly different methods of construction for the flag: a compass-and-straightedge construction used for File:Flag of Iran (official).svg, and a "simplified" construction sheet with rational numbers used for this file.
