A suicide bomber blew himself up near the Tamimi mosque , a Shiite mosque in northern Baghdad as worshipers were leaving after evening prayers on Wednesday.
According to Iraqi authorities, at least 35 people were killed and more than 55 were injured in the bombings.
Immediately after the bombing, locals spotted a man they suspected was about to blow himself up as well, and gunned him down before setting his corpse ablaze, the sources said.
Elsewhere in the country, nine people were killed including four in the restive northern province of Nineveh.
According to the Bangkok Post, no group immediately claimed responsibility for the Shiite mosque attack, but Sunni militants linked to Al-Qaeda frequently set off attacks against Iraq's Shiite majority, who they regard as apostates.
