On Sunday, thousands of Iranians gathered at a prayer hall in Tehran to mourn the death of Ali Khamenei, who was killed in a US-Israeli strike on February 28. The funeral, delayed due to the ongoing conflict between the US and Iran, was marked by chants and slogans against the United States.<\/p>\n

According to the Associated Press, from “death to America” to “death to Israel,” the funeral were marked by chants against the Iranian enemies in the current war responsible for the Ayatollah’s death.<\/p>\n

However, a speech by Iranian poet Mohammad Rasouli at the funeral created a major row, especially in the US. Rasouli, speaking before the prayer reading Sunday, called for the assassination of the US President, Donald Trump. Referring to Trump, he asked, “Why is the most bastard man in the world still alive?” adding that the “world is no longer a good place” for the 79-year-old.<\/p>\n

“From now on the shroud is our garment. I swear by your blood; Trump’s murder is our duty,” Mohammad Rasouli said. Why is the most bastard man in the world still alive? The world is no longer a good place for Trump. Why should we not kill the man who killed our imam? It would be a disgrace if we did not.”<\/p>\n

Notably, however, since being made the Ayatollah 10 days after Ali Khamenei’s death, Mojtaba has been absent from public life. He was absent from Sunday’s proceedings, as his brothers, Mustafa, Massoud and Meysam, attended the event.<\/p>\n
