Revision as of 03:41, 21 May 2010
Hojjatoleslam Kazem Seddiqi is an interim Friday Prayer Leader for Tehran, Iran. The Friday prayer leader gives the khutbah or sermon shortly after noon on Friday, the traditional time of gathering for the Muslim community. In Tehran the prayer leader gives the khutbah at the University of Tehran.
Among the targets of criticism in Seddiqi's khutbahs have been "certain regional countries for `supporting` the leader of the Jundallah terrorist group, Abdolmalek Rigi",[1] the United States President Barack Obama for showing his “ugly face” by preparing a new slate of sanctions against Iran,[2] and women who wear immodest clothing and behave promiscuously, which Seddiqi claims causes earthquakes to occur.[3] In response to the latter statement, hundreds of thousands of women around the world, organized through social-networking sites such as Facebook and Twitter, declared April 26, 2010, to be "Boobquake day", in which they all agreed to wear immodest clothing on the same day.[4]
