Ayatollah Ahmad Jannati (احمد جنتی) is a politician and cleric and the Secretary of the Guardian Council , the body in charge of checking the Iranian legislature with the Constitution Of Iran and Islamic laws (also known as '' Sharia '') and approving the candidates in various elections. He is also a temporary Friday Prayer Imam of Tehran . Jannati is considered close to the Conservative Alliance , and is heavily criticized by the Reformists for his active role in not approving reformist candidates to run in various elections and blocking their legislations. He is disdainful of non-Muslims, having said "non-Muslims are animals that chew their cud and cause corruption on Earth." Ayatollah Jannati was one of the founders of Haghani School , one of the most influential religious school in Iran. |
