In a message, the Custodian of Astan Quds Razavi offered condolences on the passing of the devout scholar, insightful thinker and ethics teacher Ayat. Mohammad‑Hadi Abdekhodaei.
The text of the message from Ayat. Marvi is as follows:
In the name of God, the Most Compassionate, the Most Merciful
I extend my condolences on the passing of the devout scholar, insightful thinker and ethics teacher Ayat. Mohammad‑Hadi Abdekhodaei to the scholars and religious authorities, the seminaries, academics, the faithful people of Khorasan, the people of Iran as a whole, and especially to his esteemed family.
This noble scholar came from a lineage of knowledge and jurisprudence, and he spent his blessed life in the path of the sciences of the Ahl al‑Bayt and the promotion of religious teachings.
His presence in various arenas of the Islamic Republic—from the Islamic Consultative Assembly to the Assembly of Experts, and from serving as ambassador to the Vatican to teaching in seminaries and universities—reflects aspects of his revolutionary commitment and responsible role‑playing.
From beside the illuminated resting place of Hazrat Ali ibn Musa al‑Reza, I pray the Almighty God grants elevated ranks and vast mercy to that pious scholar, and bestows beautiful patience and great reward upon his honorable survivors.
Ahmad Marvi
Custodian of Astan Quds Razavi
