Is Hoskins upset by male religious leader? (4)
I believe the answer is:
imam
'religious leader?' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
'is hoskins upset by male' is the wordplay.
'is hoskins' becomes 'im' (I've seen this in other clues).
'upset by male' becomes 'am' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should believe this answer much more).
'im'+'am'='IMAM'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for imam that I've seen before include "Muslim community leader" , "Ma, I'm off to find religious Muslim" , "Muslim preacher" , "Prayer-leader in a mosque" , "Person leading devotions in a mosque" .)
