Ayatollah Nurullah Shahabadi, the son of Grand Ayatollah Hajj Sheikh Mohammad Ali Shahabadi (r.a.), the teacher of Maaref of the late Imam Khomeini (r.a.), benefited from his honorable father, as well as other great, learned, and mystic professors in his personal and mystical life.
Teaching in seminaries and Alavi School of Iraq and Musawi School of Tehran, being the head of the Islamic Institute of London, authoring, commenting, and translating dozens of valuable and lasting scientific works, as well as his gentle poetic style in expressing his devotion to the Infallible and Immaculate AhlulBayt (a.s.), shows his great status in the fields of ethics, education, and knowledge.
I pray for the soul of this divine scientist, God’s mercy and forgiveness, and patience and reward for the respected family of Shahabadi, and his enthusiasts, students, and relatives.
May God have mercy on him and us
Reza Ramazani
