Iran’s Jewish population commemorated the 36th anniversary of Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini’s death with a memorial ceremony held at the Youssef Abad Shul in Tehran. The event featured readings from the Torah and Tehillim, accompanied by speeches honoring Khomeini’s legacy.
Rabbi Younes Hamami, a leading rabbinic authority within the Jewish community of Iran, spoke at the gathering, expressing admiration for Khomeini’s approach to interfaith relations. “Imam Khomeini—may Allah have mercy on him—was a major religious figure across faiths,” Hamami said.
