In the Name of God, the Most Beneficent, the Most Merciful,
I received the sad news of the acknowledged scholar's, Hujjatul-Islam wal Muslimeen Hajj Sheikh Mohyeddin Ha’eri Shiraz's, demise.
He was a prominent and successful religious scholar who spent his whole life serving the people by educating and elevating souls, hearts, minds and the actions of his audience.
Both before the revolution, in Shiraz and Qom, and after the victory of the revolution, as a Friday Imam while holding other prominent positions, the active and effective thoughts of this sincere and spiritually knowledgeable cleric have always played a role in promoting Islamic, Quranic, and revolutionary thoughts as well as educating the public.
I express my condolences to his esteemed family, disciples, the seminary, the public and other clergymen of Fars Province. I beseech Allah the Exalted to reward him handsomely for his good deeds.
