"his fatwa calling for the murder of British Indian novelist Salman Rushdie who insulted Muhammad"

Maybe say criticise instead? Insulted sounds very extreme. People are allowed to 'criticise' religions! 148.88.245.206 (talk) 13:59, 28 January 2025 (UTC)

Comma

{{Edit semi-protected|ans=yes}}

Change "pursuing the overthrow of Saddam Hussein the Iran–Iraq War," to "pursuing the overthrow of Saddam Hussein, the Iran–Iraq War,"

A comma is missing between "Saddam Hussein" and "the Iran-Iraq War" 2620:132:B042:0:69E7:B06E:52FA:3D8B (talk) 15:22, 16 May 2025 (UTC)

In section Family and descendants REMOVE "By all accounts, their marriage was harmonious and happy."

This is unverified information and grossly negligent of the facts of the marriage: that at age 30, Ruhollah Khomeini married a child. Suggesting child marriage is "harmonious" does not further our understanding of Khomeini or his wife. It does, however, promote the potential validity of child marriage.

:You claim it is "unverified information." Have you consulted the cited source (Taheri, The Spirit of Allah, pp. 90-91) to determine whether it can be verified? Day Creature (talk) 06:37, 22 June 2025 (UTC)
