Everything about Mohammad Mohammad Sadeq Al-sadr totally explained
Grand Ayatollah Mohammad Mohammad Sadeq al-Sadr (
Arabic:
محمد محمّد صادق الصدر;
Muḥammad Muḥammad Ṣādiq aṣ-Ṣadr) (
March 23 1943 –
February 19,
1999), often referred to as
Muhammad Sadiq as-Sadr which is his father's name, was a prominent,
Iraqi
Twelver Shi'a cleric of the rank of
Grand Ayatollah. He called for government reform and the release of detained Shi'a leaders. The growth of his popularity, often referred to as the followers of the Vocal
Hawza, also put him in competition with other Shi'a leaders, including
Ayatollah Mohammed Baqir al-Hakim who was exiled in Iran.
He was killed in the Iraqi city of
Najaf along with two of his sons as they drove through the town. Their car was ambushed by men, and both his sons were killed by gunfire while he was severely injured. He died an hour later in the hospital. Shi'as in Iraq, as well as most international observers, hold that the Iraqi Baathist government was implicated if not directly responsible.
Following the
fall of Baghdad, the majority-Shi'a suburb of
Saddam City was unofficially but popularly renamed to Sadr City in his honor. His son,
Muqtada al-Sadr, bases his legitimacy upon his relationship to his father, and gains much of his support through the popularity of his father.
He was a student of his father's cousin
Grand Ayatollah Muhammad Baqir al-Sadr, the father-in-law of
Muqtada al-Sadr.
