<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">mosque officials</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(I've seen this in another clue)</span><br/ ><br/ >This is the entire clue.<br/ ></span>
(Other definitions for imams that I've seen before include "Islamic holy men" , "Mosque prayer leaders" , "They lead prayers in mosques" , "Mosque officers" , "Religious men" .)
