In the Name of God, the Compassionate, the Merciful
On the demise of the diligent scholar and father of a martyr, Haj Sheikh Abbasali Akhtari (may God have mercy on him), I offer my condolences to his honorable family, admirers, and those who benefited from his teachings.
This pious scholar was well-known for his hard work and devoted actions in all the fields he took part, from jurisprudence to politics and the spread of Islamic teachings. He used all his capabilities generously on this path.
I pray for God, the Almighty, to raise the rank of this sincere, creative cleric.
