Unfortunately, there is always a chance of an earthquake occurring.

You may be apprehansive right now because of the recent 6.3 near your city.

You can do things to prepare for them. I would make sure I live in a building that has been successful in not coming down in prior quakes.

Know what to do in an earthquake - don't run, but get under something that is strong and could withstand building materials coming down on it - cover your head. Stock up on water and some food for emergencies - have an earthquake kit - radio, flashlight, maybe a shovel...
Take a look at this site - they tell you what to do to prepare:

Here is some earthquake info on Iran:

The best thing you could do is to be prepared for them.
