NAJAF, IRAQ - JULY 11: Outspoken Iraqi sheikh Muqtada al-Sadr delivers Friday prayers on July 11, 2003, at the mosque in Kufa, near Najaf, where his father Mohamed Sadeq al-Sadr--one of Iraq's most respected clerics, who was killed by Baathists in 1999--first began giving sermons. The faithful line up in their thousands at the Kufa mosque to hear the cleric give a message of "wait and see," regarding the US occupation and new government of Iraq, and how Iraq's majority Shia Muslims should deal with it. Al-Sadr has also sparked a divide within Iraq's clerics, as he faces off with more moderate, and higher ranking religious leaders. (Photo by Scott Peterson/Getty Images)
