Biography
Ali Motahari was born in Tehran. His father is noted Islamic scholar Morteza Motahari.
Motahari is a brother-in-law of current Majles Speaker Ali Larijani, and a harsh critic of Mahmoud Ahmadinejad. He criticized Ahmadinejad for his "self-centered" policies saying: "It is unprecedented and inappropriate that a president simply says I do not accept this law and will not execute it. This is a sign of despotism." Motahari tried to summon Ahmadinejad to parliament to face questioning and possible impeachment. Though a conservative, he has been something of a maverick.
On 13 March 2015, Motahari was injured in an attack carried out by motorcycle thugs before giving a speech at Shiraz University.
