the text of the condolence message from Ayatollah Arafi, the Head of Iran’s seminaries, is as follows:
We belong to Allah and we shall return to Him
The passing of the noble scholar and jurist, Ayatollah Seyyed Mohammad Reza Hosseini Jalali, caused great sorrow and grief.
That wise thinker devoted his noble life to preserving the valuable heritage of hadith and supplication of Shiite Islam, and he revised, revived, and presented excellent works to the scientific community with the aim of preserving the Shiite cultural heritage, which will be a lasting memory and a valuable resource for him.
While honoring the years of scientific struggle, I offer my condolences to the bereaved families, friends, and devotees for the loss of that insightful scholar. In this holy month, I pray to God to grant him the status of satisfaction and for his survivors, peace of mind accompanied by abundant rewards.
