Persian.
Techically, they descend from a group called Aryans IIRC (not the Hitler blonde hair, blue eye folks). In fact, damn near every Iranian I've ever met has had blue eyes... Not what I can say for Arabs... but that is a gross generalization.
Do a Google search for Persian anthropology. They may share a common religion in the majority (there is a substantial Christian population in exodus from Iran post-Shah), but they ethnically share little with Arab Muslims.
