Akhond Ma Jun

The word 阿訇 (Akhond اخوند) is Farsi (Persian) for a Muslim priest and/or prayer leader.

It is used among Chinese Muslims including Uygur, Hui, etc Nationalities. It is also of course in Iran and many other Muslim countries.

In Arabic, the similar word is Imam إمام. However, interestingly, in Farsi, a prayer leader is also called an Imam but is spelt امام(Arabic إمام). :)
