The Khamenei family ( Persian: خاندان خامنهای) or Khamenei dynasty [1] is among the Iranian Azeri Sayyid families [2] [3] [4] who claim to be descendants of the fourth Imam of Shia Islam, Ali ibn Husayn Zayn al-Abidin (Persian/ Arabic: علی بن حسین، زین العابدین) (known as Imam Sajjad) [5] [6] [7] [8] — according to the "Khamenei family tree". [9] [10] [11] Their dwelling place(s) were/are in Azerbaijan (Iran), Najaf, [12] Tafresh, [13] etc.
Seyyed Ali Khamenei, the supreme leader of Iran, [14] [15] is the most powerful member of the Khamenei political family. [16] His descent, known as "Sadat-e Hosseini", is likewise connected to the third Shia Imam, Husayn ibn Ali. [6] [17] An Al-Manar TV documentary broadcast in March 2020 claimed that Khamenei is the 38th descendant of the Islamic prophet Muhammad by his[ whose?] son Hussain Asghar, a son[ who?] of Imam Sajjad. [18]
Seyyed Ali Khamenei's father was Seyyed Javad Khamenei, [14] [19] [20] [21] [22] and his paternal grandfather was Seyyed Hussein, [23] who was buried in Najaf, Iraq (in the Wadi-us-Salaam cemetery). [24] Seyyed Hussein's father was Seyyed Mohammad Hosseini Tafresshi, who was considered a Sayyid of Aftasi, whose family tree was connected to Sultan-al-Ulama Ahmad (also known as Seyyed Ahmad). [25]
Seyyed Mohammad Hosseini Tafreshi Khamenei Tabrizi (Persian: سید محمد حسینی تفرشی خامنهای تبریزی) was the son of Seyyed Mohamad Taghi, who was the son of Mirza Ali-Akbar, who was the son of Seyyed Fakhr-al-Din Tafreshi.
