Hi,
I think you're confusing between the reference ellipsoid and the zone number of the utm projection.
WGS84 is the reference ellipsoid, commonly used worldwide in cartography, geodesy, satellite navigation (GPS)... The previous ones were WGS72, 66 and 60, but no 39... other popular (old) ones were ED50, GRS80, NAD88, ETRS89.
Associated to this ellipsoid, you can define projections as UTM ones, defined by longitudinal zones. And Persian Gulf seems to be in the zone number 39 as illustrated below:
