Mohammad Sadoughi
Mohammad Sadoughi known as "Sevomin-Shahide-Mehrab" was an Iranian Twelver Shia Ayatollah born in Yazd.
He served as a representative of the people of Yazd in the assembly of experts and was appointed Imam of Friday Prayer in Yazd in 1980 by decree of the former supreme leader of Iran, Seyyed Ruhollah Khomeini.
Sadoughi was born into a prominent religious family. His father, Ayatollah Mirza-Taleb, was a well-known cleric in Yazd and served as the imam of prayer at the Rozeye-Mohammadieh Mosque. Sadoughi began his early religious education at the AbdolRahman-Khan school, later continuing his studies in Isfahan before returning to Yazd. He subsequently moved to Qom, where he pursued advanced religious studies in Hawzah. Sadoughi was assassinated on 2 July 1982 after leading the Friday Prayer.
