Sayyid Ali-Akbar Mousavi Hosseini (Persian: سید علیاکبر موسوی حسینی) was an Iranian Shia cleric, conservative politician and television personality.
A member of parliament representing Tehran, Rey, Shemiranat and Eslamshahr from 1992 to 2000, he was head of the parliamentary group Hezbollah fraction which maintained close ties to the Combatant Clergy Association.
Hosseini was a host of an important TV show named Akhlagh dar Khanevadeh, broadcast by the Islamic Republic of Iran Broadcasting.[1] [2] According to Kim Murphy, Hosseini was a "popular television cleric" and "a mild-mannered mullah who draws millions of viewers for his Saturday night program on Islam and the family".[3] Fariba Adelkhah identifies him with the clerical title of Hojatoleslam and described him as "well known for his sarcastic and humorous televised comments".[4]
