Ayatollah Mahmoud Taleghani (1911 - September 9, 1979) was an Iranian theologian, humanist, Muslim reformer, democracy advocate and a senior Shi´a cleric of Iran. Taleghani was a contemporary of the Iranian Revolutionary leader Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini and a leader in his own right of Iran´s Shi´a resistance movement against the pro-western, secularist Shah Mohammad Reza Pahlavi.
