As his power grew, al-Sadr became more and more involved in politics following the Gulf War and throughout the 1990s he openly defied Saddam. He organized the poor Shi'ites of [[Sadr City]], yet another nickname for the impoverished Shi'ite ghetto in Baghdad, against Saddam and the Baath Party. Sadr gained the support of the Shi'ites by reaching out to tribal villages and offering services to them that they would otherwise not have been afforded by Hussein's regime. Saddam began to crack down on the Shi'ite leaders in the late 1990s in an attempt to regain control of Iraq.

Sometime before his death, al-Sadr was informed of Saddam's limited patience with him. In defiance, al-Sadr wore his death shroud to his final Friday sermon to show that the Shi'ites would not be intimidated by Saddam's oppression and that Sadr would preach the truth even if it meant his own death. He was later killed leaving the mosque in the Iraqi city of [[Najaf]] along with two of his sons as they drove through the town.<ref>{{citeCita booklibro |lastcognome=Berman |firstnome=Eli |yearanno=2011 |url=http://books.google.co.uk/books?id=R7jvDS3OiAUC&pg=PA56 |titletitolo=Radical, Religious and Violent |publishereditore=MIT Press |pagep=56 |isbn=9780262258005}}</ref><ref>{{citeCita news |lastcognome=Jehl |firstnome=Douglas |url=http://www.nytimes.com/1999/02/22/world/assassination-of-shiite-cleric-threatens-further-iraqi-unrest.html |titletitolo=Assassination of Shiite Cleric Threatens Further Iraqi Unrest |workopera=The New York Times |datedata=February 22, febbraio 1999}}</ref> Their car was ambushed by men, and both his sons were killed by gunfire while he was severely injured. He died an hour later in the hospital. Shi'as in Iraq, as well as most international observers, suspect the Iraqi Baathist government of being involved in, if not directly responsible, for their murders. Anger at, among other things, the government's involvement in Sadr's death helped spark the [[1999 Shia uprising in Iraq]]. Saddam later vows to hunt the perpetrators who assassinated Sadr and calls for Shia-Sunni unity in Iraq.

Following the [[2003 invasion of Baghdad|fall of Baghdad]], the majority-Shi'a suburb of Revolution City (Saddam City) was unofficially but popularly renamed to [[Sadr City]] in his honor. Sadr City was the first part of Baghdad to overthrow the Baath Party in 2003.
