Ragheb Harb (Arabic: راغب حرب; 1952–1984) was a Lebanese Shia Muslim cleric and politician. He was an Imam who led resistance against the Israeli occupation of Lebanon, thus becoming a face for popular resistance, including being a leader in Amal Movement. In March 1983, he was detained by the Israel Defense Forces, but following wide spread demonstrations throughout southern Lebanon, he was released seventeen days later.
