Hezbollah Offers Its Condolences for the Passing of Grand Ayatollah Sayyed Muhammad Saeed Al-Hakim

Below is the statement:

In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful

“When a jurist believer dies, a void is left in Islam that nothing can ever again fill” – Imam Ali (AS)

Today, the Islamic world has been afflicted by the news of the passing of the great cleric and scholarly jurist, Grand Ayatollah Sayyed Muhammad Saeed Al-Hakim (May Allah sanctify his secret) after a long life spent in the path of the true religion and the elevation of the status of religious seminaries and the issues of the Islamic world.

We in Hezbollah believe that this calamity is a great loss for the Islamic world, as he was a great scholar who had shouldered important and dangerous responsibilities in defending the truth, and he has suffered for many years in the face of the injustice that has befallen the Islamic nation and Iraq in particular by the former regime. He remained the holder of the unrelenting missionary position, as he enriched the Islamic library with literature and researches that will remain an asset for those seeking knowledge and integrity.
