Ayatollah Sayyid Kamal al-Haydari, based in Qom, Iran, described the February 28 strikes as assaults on Iran's religious core and called resistance a religious duty for his followers. His statement follows similar fatwas from clerics like Grand Ayatollah Naser Makarem Shirazi, amid funerals, protests, and vows of retaliation from Tehran. While these calls frame jihad as defensive in Shia tradition, experts note al-Haydari's influence is limited, and they signal outrage more than unified war plans as Iran seeks Khamenei's successor.

Key Takeaway

Days after U.S.-Israeli strikes killed Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, a prominent Iraqi Shia cleric urged Muslims to take up defensive jihad against the attackers.
