Mahmoud Karimi is an Iranian maddah, a reciter of Shia religious elegies. Based in Tehran, he is one of the best-known eulogists in Iran; he writes much of his own verse and performs at Muharram and Fatimiyya mourning ceremonies, including ceremonies attended by the country's supreme leader, Ali Khamenei. He has also been involved in several controversies, among them a 2013 highway shooting and a 2020 televised recitation criticised as irreverent toward Husayn ibn Ali.
