The Hojjatiyeh Society is one of the most fascinating religious
groups in modern Iran. The society started its way in the 1950s as
an anti-Baha'i movement but found itself fighting Khomeini's
Velayat-i Faqih and leading an anti-Khomeini and messianic agenda.
Despite the Hojjatiyeh's fight against Khomeini, the Hojjatiyeh
became, unwillingly and unintentionally, a leading faction in the
Islamic Revolution, with its members coming to occupy some of the
highest echelon posts in Iranian politics. The Hojjatiyeh was
dismissed in 1983 by Khomeini, but it seems it never truly left the
political sphere until today, when its traces can still be found on
Iranian politics. Even Mahmoud Ahmadinejad and his mentor the
Ayatollah Mesbah-Yazdi are reported to be Hojjatiyeh members.
