Persia without Islam would be a land of deformed kissin' cousins... have you read the rules on Zoroastrianism lately?! There are hardly any Parsees left.

Don't forget, Islam is just a variation on Christianity, which is just a variation on Judaism, which is just a variation on bronze age tribal Semitic/Mesopotamian cults... it's all foreign muck - be a Druid!
The thing that's incompatible with democracy is politics, which is effectively the same thing as religion.

Religion demands certainty without evidence; reason demands evidence without certainty. (science is a circular argument; it's a shitload better than pol-igion; but not as good as philosophy: which trumps 'em all).
