Global InformationFatwa of Ali Khamenei against insulting revered Sunni figures information
A Fatwa prohibiting the insulting of the most religious figures of Sunni Islam was published by Iran's Supreme Leader, Ali Khamenei,[1] on 30 September 2010. The fatwa was issued following the insulting of Aisha by Yasser Al-Habib.[1] This fatwa received various reactions from Shia and Sunni Muslims,[1][2] and from Arabic[3][4][5][6][7] and Western media.[1][8]
The fatwa is binding only upon those performing taqlid to Ayatollah Khamenei. Twelver Shias following numerous other maraji that maybe disagree with the ruling, are not obliged to respect it and may even act against it.[9] Mohammad-Taqi Bahjat, Ali al-Sistani[citation needed], Naser Makarem Shirazi, Abdul-Karim Mousavi Ardebili, Mousa Shubairi Zanjani have similar opinion to Khamenei in this issue.[10][better source needed]
