Mandaeism - Wikipedia

Mandaeism is a Gnostic, ethnic religion with Jewish roots whose adherents consider John the Baptist the ultimate prophet. The world’s 60k to 100k Mandaeans were concentrated in Iraq until the 2003 invasion and subsequent rise of Islamic extremism precipitated a diaspora. #religion #Mandaeism #Iraq

#Mandaic is an #Aramaic derived script. It is used to write Mandaic in Ahvaz, Khūzestān (modern-day #Iran), and used liturgically in #Mandaeism.
