Mass funeral in Syria for the assassinated preacher of the Sayyida Zeinab Mosque
In Syria, the mass funeral of فرحان منصور, the preacher of the Sayyida Zeinab Mosque, took place today, May 2, 2026. According to reports on social media, Mansour was assassinated yesterday immediately after leaving the holy compound.
Hydikm, who posted news of the funeral to an audience of tens of thousands of viewers, described the deceased with the title "the Sayyid the Martyr" and noted that there was a "حشود غفيرة" (a vast crowd) of Shiites in Syria who came to pay their last respects. Anmar23bk echoed the original report and emphasized the scale of participation in the funeral, while using the term "occupied Syria" to describe the situation in the country.
The reports reflect a narrative of loss among the Shiite community in Syria, as Hydikm concluded his words with a prayer: "كان الله بعون اتباع محمد وآل محمد في كل مكان وزمان" (May God be with the followers of Muhammad and the family of Muhammad in every place and time).
