Due to the restrictions and sanctions imposed on Iran, Apple's iMessage and FaceTime services are not available in the country. As a result, you cannot use your phone number to communicate with others using these services. You may want to consider using other messaging apps such as WhatsApp, Telegram, or Viber, which are available in Iran and support voice and video calls.
