AhlulBayt News Agency (ABNA): Iran's President sent a message to express condolences over the passing of Ayatollah Seyyed Jafar Karimi, head of Supreme Leader's Treatise Council and Member of Society of Seminary Teachers of Qom.

President Hassan Rouhani's message is as follows:

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

The passing of Ayatollah Seyyed Jafar Karimi, head of Supreme Leader's Treatise Council and Member of Society of Seminary Teachers of Qom, caused great grief and sorrow.

This top teacher of seminaries spent years of promoting Islamic teachings and educating graduates of religious sciences, along with years of presence in different responsibilities, including membership in the Assembly of Experts from Mazandaran constituency, serving in the Treatise Council of the Supreme Leader with his wisdom and valuable experience. There is no doubt that his services will stay in the minds of the grateful people of Iran.

I hereby offer my sincerest condolences to seminaries, people of Mazandaran Province, his students and his respectful family and pray to the Almighty for him and wish his family patience and health.

Hassan Rouhani

President of the Islamic Republic of Iran
