Khatib
In Islam, a khateeb, khateeb or hatib is a person who delivers the sermon , during the Friday prayer and Eid prayers.
The khateeb is usually the imam, but the two roles can be played by different people. The Khatib should be knowledgeable of how to lead the prayer and be competent in delivering the khutba however there are no requirements of eligibility to become a khatib beyond being an Adult Muslim. Some Muslims believe the khatib has to be male but women do lead Friday prayers in number of places.
Women may be khateebahs. Edina Lekovic gave the inaugural khutba at the Women's Mosque in 2015.
