Description:
Ali Khamenei was not a "marja" when he was elected the Supreme Leader of Iran. Since the Constitution of Islamic Republic of Iran required the Supreme Leader to be a "marja", a new amendment to the constitution to allow a cleric of his then-status to be elected as the Supreme Leader was required. Since this had not been put to a referendum yet, the Assembly of Experts internally titled him a temporary office holder until the new constitution became effective. Wikipedia
