Tehran, Iran, Jul. 16 – A top Iranian cleric warned Friday that the Islamic Republic would not tolerate disobedience towards Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.

Ayatollah Mohammad Emami Kashani, in a Friday prayers sermon in Tehran, stated that obedience would allow the country to move ahead and anything less would not be tolerated.

Kashani said complete compliance and unity was the basic principle of the Islamic regime in Iran.

He added that this conformity would allow the country to face challenges in the future.

Various factions of Iran’s clerical regime have in recent months been challenging the authority of Iran’s Supreme Leader, posing one of the biggest challenges to his grip on power.
