Seyyed Javad Zabihi
Seyyed Javad Zabihi (Persian: سید جواد ذبیحی; 1931 – July 15, 1980) was an muezzin, eulogist, and reciter of Noha and supplications in Shia religious ceremonies, as well as a performer of classical Persian singing.
Following the 1979 Revolution, Zabihi was arrested due to his association with the previous regime under Mohammad Reza Pahlavi. He was later released on the orders of Ruhollah Khomeini, but in July 1980, he was murdered by unknown individuals. His body was initially discovered by the gendarmerie and kept anonymously in a morgue.
