Iran's Grand Ayatollah Naser Makarem Shirazi has issued a religious decree, or fatwa, calling for the assassination of U.S. President Donald Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. The fatwa labels both leaders as "enemies of God" (moharib) for threatening Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei and the Islamic regime. This ruling, grounded in Islamic law, urges Muslims worldwide to take action against Trump and Netanyahu, effectively sanctioning their killing.
The fatwa follows a period of heightened tensions, including Trump-backed operations that damaged Iran's nuclear capabilities. Other senior Iranian Shia clerics, including Ayatollah Nouri Hamedani, have issued similar fatwas against Trump and anyone threatening Khamenei. The decree has raised concerns about potential global terrorism and increased security risks for the targeted leaders amid ongoing geopolitical conflicts.
