Sayyid Mojtaba Mir-Lohi (Persian: سيد مجتبی میرلوحی, 9 October 1924[2][3] – 18 January 1956), more commonly known as Navvab Safavi (Persian: نواب صفوی), was an Iranian Shia cleric and founder of the Fada'iyan-e Islam group. He played a role in assassinations of Abdolhossein Hazhir, Haj Ali Razmara and Ahmad Kasravi.[4] On 22 November 1955, after an unsuccessful attempt to assassinate Hosein Ala', Navvab Safavi and some of his followers were arrested. In January 1956, Safavi and three other members of Fada'iyan-e Islam were sentenced to death and executed.[1]
