Infobox image

Instead of the mediocre option in the infobox, where the face isn't clearly visible, I recommend this image: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Portrait_of_Mojtaba_Khamenei.jpg What do you think? Can you vote? Acratopotes (talk) 09:28, 22 June 2026 (UTC)

Personally, I think the recommended alternative is better than the current option. Emiya1980 (talk) 10:28, 22 June 2026 (UTC)

Recommendation: Add patrilineal descent section

Since Khamenei is a Seyyed, being a direct descendant of the Prophet Muhammad through his grandson Hussein, I think it would be useful to add a genealogy/patrilineal descent section (see Aga Khan V article as an example of this). HieronymusFlex (talk) 05:22, 25 June 2026 (UTC)

HieronymusFlex That would be interesting, but it requires some inside knowledge, so maybe you can add such a section once you have made 500 edits and you are extended-confirmed? Friendly, Lova Falk (talk) 07:13, 9 August 2026 (UTC)

If anyone would be willing to add this, here is a source quoting from Professor Nasser Ebrahimi of the Qom Seminary that contains his genealogy:

I get a security warning when I try to open that source. Still, I know nothing, really nothing at all about genealogy, so writing a section from scratch would be too much for me. But HieronymusFlex, if you write the section and make a formal edit request, or tag me, I promise I'll take a good look at it and add it if it is good. Lova Falk (talk) 07:06, 12 August 2026 (UTC)

 Not done: it's not clear what changes you want made. Please detail the specific changes in a "change X to Y" format and provide a reliable source if appropriate. The article does not say that he is the 3rd Ayatollah since 2026, but I will make a small grammatical change to the 1st sentence which will help to avoid any ambiguity.

Extended-confirmed-protected edit request on 11 July 2026

In this and many other articles from Hawza news , a newspaper run by the clerics of Qom, he's regarded as an Ayatollah.

Change his title from hojjatalislam to Ayatollah Fantomato (talk) 17:21, 11 July 2026 (UTC)

 Done I believe we had this discussion on the talk page previously and found that multiple reliable sources had reported that he was promoted to Ayatollah, so I'm not sure why someone changed it back. Day Creature (talk) 00:12, 12 July 2026 (UTC)

Had prolonged absence?

In the lead of the article, it says he had a prolonged absence from public view. It should say he has been absent from public view, since he is yet to show up in public. Yavneh (talk) 21:56, 11 July 2026 (UTC)

Fixed Good point, thank you! Lova Falk (talk) 07:09, 9 August 2026 (UTC)

Website update

A website, separate from the previous Supreme Leader’s, has been launched for him recently. It contains all his statements released so far, as well as a biography.

Google translate says: "You wrote <passed away> on your birthday". As far as I can see, we didn't write this in the article. This is the English wikipedia, would you please write in English. Friendly, Lova Falk (talk) 07:01, 9 August 2026 (UTC)
