A suicide bomber have killed at least nine people and injured 15 others in the town of Musaib, 80km south of the Iraqi capital Baghdad, police say.
The attack took place in a Shia mosque during prayer time on Friday, a day after parliamentarians passed a controversial security pact with the US.
The mosque was filled with around 300 worshippers when the bomber hit, destroying doors and windows and filling the building with smoke, Kadhim al Shammari, a police officer, said.
In July 2005 more than 70 people were killed in the same mosque when a suicide bomber detonated a truck loaded with explosives.
The mosque is mainly used by worshippers who follow Muqtada al-Sadr, the Shia leader.
Lawmakers loyal to al-Sadr strongly opposed the security pact which the parliament approved on Thursday, allowing US troops to remain in Iraq for another three years .
