The text of Ayatollah Reza Ramazani's condolence message to hujat al-Islam Sayed Mohammad Reza Jalali, is as follows:
In the Name of Allah, the Compassionate, the Merciful
Peace be to you, for your patience (Holy Quran, 13:24)
Dear Ayatollah Sayed Mohammad Hossein Hosseini Jalali
I offer my condolences on the demise of your dear brother, accurate scholar, hard-working writer, brother of a martyr, Ayatollah Haj Sayed Mohammad Hossein Hosseini Jalali.
Born into a noble family and descended from Imam Sajjad (a.s.), he spent his blessed life researching and composing in various Islamic sciences and identifying and correcting valuable Shiite heritage.
Enduring the hardships of living in exile, he also shone like a beacon in the Western world, and in addition to managing a school for the new generation of American Muslims, he promoted the teachings of the Quran and AhlulBayt (a.s.) and published religious and jurisprudential books for the use of Western Shiites.
Certainly, these scientific and cultural services - especially his works on the Holy Quran, Nahj al-Balaghah and Sahifa al-Sajjadia - will be good deeds for him before Allah.
I offer my condolences on the demise of this serving Scholar to you, the seminaries of Qom and Najaf al-Ashraf, the Muslims of Chicago, his students and enthusiasts, and especially to the respected family of Hosseini Jalali.
May Allah, the Almighty, make the deceased a guest of Sayed al-Shohada (a.s.) along with his martyr brother and grant you and the whole family patience.
And "Indeed we belong to Allah and to Him do we indeed return" (Holy Quran 2:156)
Reza Ramazani
The Secretary General of the AhlulBayt (a.s.) World Assembly
